The world is moving toward a more social and connected future. As a result, homes need to be able to accommodate this increase in visibility without making the home feel like a lecture hall or anorexic asylum. The age of Instagrammable living has arrived, and so has the age of DIY living — which means it’s time to up your home decor game. If you’re looking to add life and personality to your home, you might want to explore some of these ideas first.
Put on your pom-poms
If you’re looking to add a lot of personality to your home, you might like to put on your pom-poms. This is what they were first made for — and they’re still a great idea to keep in the house. They’re great for adding a lot of character to the space, and they make the walls ooh-ing and aaa-ing. Put on some pom-poms for your kitchen/dining/kitchen island/family room/rear-view mirror for home decor. Put some of your favorite Bloomster bouquets on these. Before you decorate, see what else you can put in there that will make it feel more like home.
Let your pets out on a Friday night
You probably don’t want your canine friend getting in too much of a rush, so you can put your phone on airplane mode and take your pet outside on a Friday night. I know this is probably a no-brainer, but I prefer to do this early in the following weeks so that the house doesn’t get too cluttered. Before you take your pet outside, take something more commendable to the room — like an old, worn-out blanket or sofa. While your pet is out, you can set up an array of other thoughtful things to do in the house. I love to take my dog out for a walk on Friday evenings, and I always leave her with friends downtown. With so much happening in the world and so little time, it’s easy to forget that we exist. Run a hot water bottle through the shower, take your dog for a walk, or do whatever else you need to do. Leave your space cleaner than when you’re not there, and you’ll be able to focus on doing your stuff again the next day.
Get outside and see the world
Do you remember that time you went to the zoo and saw elephants, giraffes, and other animals you’ve only ever heard about? You won’t be able to go back to our real-life zoo anytime soon, but there are ways to keep the most out of your home decor. Take your family outside for a walk on a Saturday when you’re not at home. If you’re lucky, you might see some of these animals you’ve only heard about in their habitat. When you come back inside, take some pictures and let loose. If you’re lucky, some of these animals will have already left, so you can take some more pictures, get ready to be amazed, and get your home moving again.
Make your space smell like Spring
One of the best things about adding an added lifestyle to your home is the smell of spring. Whether you’re decorating the rooms in your house for spring or hiring a professional to do it for you, you will feel the difference. If you have an open-plan kitchen where everyone in the family can see what’s happening in the house, an organized, sweet-smelling space will make the fresh air feel more like home. In a small conservative town like ours, we have very few places where there’s a chance of morning mists, and we’re lucky enough to have a vineyard just a short drive away that produces some of the finest red wine in the world. You can add a few fresh leaves from a few deciduous trees to this countryside beauty and make it even more Spring-like.
Conclusion
Adding an extra bedroom or two to your home can feel like an add-in extra. However, remember that adding an extra bedroom is most likely going to require serious renovations, and it’s likely that your house will never be the oasis it could be. If you’re looking to add a more formal or formal-themed space to your home decor, you should consider considering a table and chair set. If you’re looking to up the ante and make your home more like a hotel, you should consider adding a hotel room. With so many great options to choose from, it’s important to find the one that works best for you and your family.
