Tips for decorating your dream home


There are many responsibilities that come with owning a home. Of course, owning a home comes with many benefits as well, but it means more than being able to take advantage of tax breaks every year when you file your taxes using software from Quill. In fact, one thing that people may see as both a perk and a drawback is decorating. This is partly due to the work that it may involve and the time and money that people spend making a home theirs, but when all is said and done, their home is beautiful inside and out, granted they know how to properly decorate.

Here are a few tips for decorating your dream home.

Don't choose busy designs


When picking out furniture or decor, steer away from things that have busy designs. They may seem cool at the store or when you view them online, but in person, certain designs can be distracting and almost nauseating. Not only may you find that the pattern or design distracts you, you'll find that it will distract guests in your home as well.

Don't try to match too much


One of the biggest mistakes people make when they are decorating their home is matching too much. It is nice to have everything in the home flow together, but having too many things match can be just as distracting as having a busy design on the walls or on your furniture. If possible, choose one color to have in all rooms, but avoid having the main pieces of furniture in those room the same color. For example, if the couch is navy blue in the living room, maybe having the carpet or curtains navy blue in another room is a good idea.

Use mirrors 



If your dream home is small, a good way to fix this is by using placing mirrors in some of room, specifically the living room and bedrooms. This will give the illusion that the room is bigger and make the space feel more open.

When anyone is purchasing their first home, it can be a very exciting time in their life. While they may be excited about their purchasing, they may quickly become overwhelmed. When they take a look at all of the decorating that must be done, it may seem like a lot of work is to be done before they can really settle in and call this place home, but once it is complete, they will feel right at home.

Spending Too Much How much is too much when you are renovating a bathroom? A good rule of thumb is not to spend more than five to ten percent of the home’s value on renovating a bathroom, since you can’t recoup more than a fraction of the investment when the house is sold later. The only exception is when you are adding a new bathroom to the house to bring it up to the neighborhood average. For example, if you have a three bedroom single bathroom ol...
