How To Add Personal Touches To Your Home’s Decor

Your home’s decor is something you can really have fun with, and when it comes to adding personal touches to your home, nothing is better than adorning your property with things that are meaningful to you.

From the colour swatches you experiment with on your walls to the customised furniture you incorporate into the space. In this guide, you’ll get all the tips you need to add personal touches to your home’s decor this year.

Choose colours and patterns that you enjoy

When you’re picking out colours and patterns, it’s good to look for the ones that you’ll enjoy the most. After all, you’re the one who has to live in your home for the most part, not your family member or work colleague who comes around every so often for a drink and a natter.

There is also an abundance of colours to choose from, making the challenge of picking colours a feat in itself. However, if you have some initial ideas on colours and patterns, then it’s definitely something that’s worth exploring.

Just like anything that you’re adding to your space to make it more your personality, find colours and patterns that bring you joy. That joy is going to make living in your home so much more enjoyable.

Customise your furniture

Furniture is also something you can customise, so it’s important to look at what you have currently in the space that might not fit your vibe or aesthetic.

Think about customising furniture, whether that be your bed frame to the type of storage you create in the space.

Every item of furniture should be personal to you and be designed or picked out in a way that reflects who you are as a person. However, it’s important to remember that if you have others in the household, it’s important to get their input too. After all, they too are living in the home, and it should also be something they’re comfortable with and will enjoy.

Add artwork that speaks to you

Artwork is something that can be deeply personal, and for a lot of people, it can be a way of expressing oneself. 

If you’re not someone who has dabbled in artwork before but wants to create something in the space that adds a bit of colour, then artwork is something you should look into.

Whether it’s original artwork or reprints of an artist, adding artwork to the space can really transform the look of a room. When it comes to adding artwork, consider artwork that speaks to you. Not quite literally, but something that either you can relate to or evokes certain emotions of joy or even sorrow.

Incorporate lots of different storage for personal items

There might be a lot of different storage options that you can maximise when it comes to personal items. For example, under the bed storage is one way of storing things away, but you might want something a bit more open, whether that be on the walls or on windowsills and bay windows.

Consider all the different storage formats you can make use of in order to house your personal items. If you’ve got some plants you’ve been keeping alive from one home to another, then pair with stylish pots and create a green space you can enjoy.

Get creative with textures and soft furnishings

Creativity is important when it comes to your home, and there’s nothing better than experimenting around your home with textures. Textures are great for helping add something extra to the space.

With textures, there are a lot of different soft furnishings that you might want to incorporate into the room. From throws to cushions, you can also make these personal to you, depending on your favourite colours or designs. 

Don’t forget to decorate the outdoor space too

The outdoor space is also a place you can decorate and make your own, although sometimes it seemingly gets forgotten about. Think about how you could incorporate all of your favourite plants and flowers, for example.

You might want to look at what plants you add to the space in order to grow your own fruits and vegetables. It’s worth experimenting in the space to find what works for you and what will bring you happiness, whether that’s a water feature like a fountain or a hot tub to lounge in.

These are all personal touches worth adding to your space, so use these tips to ensure your home has a more personable feel this year.
