Decorating the interior of a home can be challenging – there are countless options for furniture, appliances, paint and flooring. The decision-making can seem endless! But despite the importance of these décor decisions, one of the most challenging aspects of interior design comes in the form of wall hangings – artwork, photography and other accessories. It can seem as though a large budget and an extensive knowledge of the ins and outs of decorating are necessary to turn your house into a home. In actuality, building a lived-in, comfortable feeling in your home by hanging art and photos can be rather easy if you follow these tips: • Buy what you love. It does not have to be expensive or overbearing – if it fits your taste, go for it! • Create a grouping. Instead of spacing out similar pieces of art or picture frames, hang them close together to create a unified focal point. • Build a grid. This is especially effective when hanging photos – style photos in frames that are exactly alike, and then hang them in a pattern. The result will be elegant and easy to look at! • Add a mat. Enhancing artwork with matting and elegant framing will add a touch of sophistication and polish to the piece. • Mix and match. Pairing various colors, frames and art styles can add a creative and unique flair to any space. The space where you live is a reflection of you and your family, and creating a beautiful interior can certainly transform a house into a home.
