Before:
Here are some of my quick tips on how to accessorize your home:
- Layering is always the key for more interesting design. So layer your accessories, playing with height, texture, and color in each vignette.
- Look for balance, not symmetry. Symmetry can be static. Balance can be dynamic. Instead of putting one of something on each side of a fireplace, put two on one side and one on the other. Play with odd numbers in a series or collection of things.
- Be bold! Take a risk! There are great, affordable accessories out in the market today. So let yourself go and have some fun while making your selections. One dramatic piece can set the tone for the room. Step out of your box and make it your own!
