Accessories make a room unique and give it personality. They add a detail that gives energy to a room and a sense of positive goodness when you step inside. For instance, using a potted palm plant in the room makes it soothing.

However, no rule tells you whether your accessories are relevant or not.  Your aim should be just to make your room feel cozy and welcoming. From plants to objects and the art of lighting, take a look at all accessories and tips to decorate your home.

Here’s a guide to help you decorate your home with flair and creativity.

1. Add Life and Energy by Bringing Plants and Flowers

Plant pots have become trendy for placing in the home. People generally use:

• Various cute tiny pots
• Stately trees
• Cactus
• Fiddle-leaf fig tree
• Other small plants
• Lush arrangements of flowers

You can arrange the plants. Flowers can be arranged, clustered, or spread out. Plants and pots not only look nice but also add colors and purify the air which can make you feel happier.

2. Do Window Treatments

Window treatments are decorative coverings for windows. They can greatly affect a room's mood. With window treatments, you can create a background to make your other furniture and accessories look like they’re center stage.

Here are some generalized window treatment suggestions:

• Use drapes, valances, rods, and finals for a classic elegant look
• Go for sheer curtains, Roman, and roller shades to look modern-minimalistic
• Wooden shutters, linen, and tiered curtains give off the rustic charm vibe.

You can choose window treatments for privacy, light filtration, decoration, and giving the room a finished look.

3. Set The Mood With Lamps and Lighting

Lighting changes the mood and energy of a room. There are multiple options available from lamp lights to ceiling lights. The arrangement options are huge too.

• Use chandeliers, recessed lights, etc. to create a general illumination.
• Layer your central lighting with task lighting like table lamps, floor lamps, etc. and accent lighting like wall scones and picture lights.
• Experiment with string lights for outdoors like patio, garden, or balcony.
• For different activities and moods, go for brightness and color temperature adjustable options.
• Use lighting to create depth and dimension.

Overall, choose a lighting arrangement that complements the room’s purpose. However, too much lighting can be overwhelming. Balance is the key.

4. Add Rugs for Depth and Warmth

Rugs are also used as decorating accessories. A rug can elevate a room’s overall aesthetic appeal. The area rug in the room also draws the room together and makes it a bit cozier. There is no hard and fast rule to style and decor rugs in a particular way. However, you can use it as a room element to shine.

5. Make a Statement with Art

Hanging art is also a way of decoration. Beautiful arts that match your home theme and style give your home a unique finishing touch.

• Use a large, striking art piece for the focal point.
• Arrange your curated collection in a grid, staggered, or asymmetrical pattern.
• You can go for two matching pieces on either side of a doorway, fireplace, or bed.
• Lean small artwork against the wall or display them on a floating shelf for a casual, effortless vibe.

You can always get more creative with art. Experiment with different arrangements.

When decorating a space, we feel rushed to decorate it properly. You should let this happen naturally and you will be happier with the results.

6. Play with Textures

Mix textures in every room. This will create an inviting space. Use curtains, cushions, rugs, etc. in texture form. These items themselves can create depth, interest, and contrast.

You can go for different options like:

• Smooth and rough
• Soft and hard
• Shiny and matte
• Or, mix them all up!

However, don’t overdo it. Too much can be overwhelming. Choose textures that complement the desired atmosphere. For example, soft and natural textures can create a calming space for the living room.
