6 Do-It-Yourself Tips For Home Decor

​You’ve wanted to upgrade your home for the longest time. Worry no more cause you definitely can do it yourself or DIY most of the pieces in your home. However, ensure it will look good and serve every piece’s purpose.
6 Do-It-Yourself Tips for Home Decor  
Having the freedom to pick every piece of your home makes home improvement more enjoyable. So here we listed down some DIY tips for your home decor.

1. Front door
The first impression of your front door lasts. That is why it's important to take time to decide the color, material, and style of your front door. It should welcome guests how you want them to feel at your home.

You can apply yellow or orange as it is mostly associated with warmth and joy that is perfect for receiving and welcoming guests.

2. Paint the Wall
Light colors give you more creative freedom in decorating and switching up accessories and furniture. Beige or gray, any neutral colors help keep the flow and avoid many color transitions in your home. Having one neutral color also helps create the feeling of being in a larger room. 

3. Matching Furniture
In the living area, it’s best to match your furniture with each piece to achieve balance and harmony. Intimate conversations are formed in an organized U-shape or H-shape design, with the sofa and chairs facing each other. Floating the furniture away from walls is recommended to make the living area feel larger, contrary to what most people do.

4. Improve Kitchen Lighting
If your kitchen gets a lot of sun, try out a light-colored window dressing that doesn't fade. Also, blend panels with lightweight fabrics like cotton, linen, and silk. Window dressing can be paired with full-length panels to make it look elegant and functional. 

5. Add Artwork Pieces
Hang some artwork that will match your wall, like oversized artwork for a large wall. Art pieces should be hung at eye level and have 2 to 4 inches of space if you want more artwork.

6. Good Room Lighting
Some kinds of light are recommended: ambient, task, and accent. Ambient light up the entire room while tasks are mostly specific, like a reading nook. Lastly, accents are for highlighting a piece of artwork or decoration. Other additional tips to add to your home DIY brainstorming session are:
  • adding rugs
  • having an expert help you
  • pay attention to the ceiling
  • consider fixtures
  • add wallpaper
  • clothing racks
  • coffee nook
  • nightstand

DIY It Effectively
DIY or do-it-yourself home decor tends to be more personalized and shows your personality in your home. Adding furniture, lighting, decorations, and more will help you achieve home-sweet-home vibes for your family and guests.

This is a great article with some practical tips for DIY home decor! I especially like the suggestion to choose a light or neutral color for your walls. This can really help to brighten up a space and make it feel more open. I also agree that furniture arrangement is important, especially in the living room. By carefully arranging your furniture, you can create a conversation-friendly space that is also functional.

The article also mentions the importance of lighting. Good lighting can really make a difference in a room. In the kitchen, for example, task lighting is important for food prep and cooking. And in the living room, ambient lighting can create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Thanks for sharing these tips! I'm definitely going to keep them in mind when I'm decorating my own home.
