Don't be afraid to break the rules in home decor from "summary" of The Nesting Place by Myquillyn Smith
When it comes to decorating your home, it's easy to get caught up in all the rules and guidelines that are supposed to help you create the perfect space. But what if I told you that breaking the rules can actually lead to a more unique and personal home?One of the biggest misconceptions about home decor is that everything has to match perfectly. In reality, mixing and matching different styles, colors, and patterns can add character and interest to your space. Don't be afraid to step outside the box and experiment with unexpected combinations - you might be surprised at how well they work together.
Another common rule in home decor is to stick to a specific color palette. While having a cohesive color scheme can certainly create a sense of harmony in your home, don't feel like you have to limit yourself to just a few colors. Feel free to incorporate pops of bold hues or unexpected tones to add depth and personality to your space.
When it comes to furniture placement, many people believe that all pieces should be pushed up against the walls to create more open space in the center of the room. However, floating furniture in the middle of the room can actually make the space feel more intimate and cozy. Don't be afraid to experiment with different layouts to find the arrangement that works best for you.
Lastly, don't feel like every piece of decor in your home has to be brand new. Mixing in vintage or thrifted items can add character and charm to your space, giving it a lived-in and collected feel. Embrace imperfections and quirks, and don't be afraid to showcase items that have a story to tell.
By breaking the rules and embracing your own unique style, you can create a home that truly reflects who you are and what you love. Don't be afraid to take risks and trust your instincts - after all, it's your home, and it should be a place that makes you feel happy and comfortable.
