In this article, we will provide you with some creative ideas so you are able to make your home one of a kind. Even though you might care about interior and home-decor, it can be hard to find the inspiration to make the home unique and personalized. We are here to help you!
Macrame and hand crafted decor
If you are the creative type, you must throw yourself at some different macrame projects! You can make so many different things out of a simple rope – and each piece you create will be unique. No one else will have these home decor items!
As an example, you can macrame different hangers for your plants. This is especially beautiful if you have a lot of plants that have a lot of branches and leaves hanging down from the pot. When you get these plants up in a macrame hanger, the plant really becomes a beautiful ornament in the corner of the room.
There are many other creative hand crafted projects that you can throw yourself at. What about painting either some old furniture or maybe painting on a canvas? Here, it is important to remember that practice makes perfect!
Plaids, blankets and pillows
People have a tendency to underestimate the effect of beautiful and cozy blankets and pillows. These items give texture to your home and they give a certain warm atmosphere. Look for unique pieces with different colors that you like. Colors light up a room and also provide a certain personal touch to a home.
What about purchasing pillow cases or blankets on your vacations? Like that, you will quickly have quite some distinct decor pieces for your home – and they will without a doubt be a topic of conversation when you have guests over.
Colors makes everything unique
Do not be afraid of colors in your home! Many are so – and especially since Scandinavian home decor became very popular. However, the connection between Scandinavian home decor and no colors is a mistake. Many Scandinavian styled homes actually do have colors!
By implementing colors to your home, you show personality. Use the colors that you like and make the colors fit with your furniture, your vacation pillowcases and your homemade macrame projects.
Inherited items
Another way to make your home more personalized and unique is with the use of inherited items. Many can be scared of using these, because of the fear that these items might make the home look old fashioned. However, if you manage to mix these older and inherited items with newer and more modern items, you showcase your family history and your very own personal style.
If you truly believe that these older and inherited items are too old fashioned, then you can always approach the item as a projekt. What about a new color? Or what about some new funky and colorful door knobs – in case your inherited item is a dresser or a little cabinet?
