Wherever you currently live, when you first stepped into your home you probably saw a blank canvas. After all, it would have been in the seller’s interest for you to perceive how you could make their home… well, yours.

Since, you’ve probably created a picture of your personality without even realising – I know we have in our home. Check out our dining room makeover, bedroom tour and kitchen before and after! Here are examples of how and how you could amp it up further…

Are you a super-stylish labels lover?

If so, you’re probably open about whatever gorge clothes and bags you have bought – in which case, why not apply the same attitude with your home decor? SheKnows advises that you keep your fashion choices in mind as you design your home.

For example, update your home decor as often as you’d update your wardrobe with key pieces each season and then you can mix and match them every time the season comes back around! I’m talking cosy throws for winter and faux fur cushions and then cool linen vibes for the summer time.

Alternatively, you may be a culture vulture

If you heart a bit of theatre and love checking out the latest exhibitions at local art galleries, then consider unleashing your creative streak on your interiors. Hanging up artwork would be an obvious move, but your chosen art pieces don’t have to be expensive; why not frame some of your own artwork or put your favourite photos and pictures into a collage? And, when buying furniture, watch out for especially quirky pieces.

If you’re a true romantic, apply a romantic touch

Someone who spends much of their time reading romantic novels and watching romantic films doesn’t have to shy away from this soft side of themselves when decorating their home.

It’s not just on your sleeve that you could wear your heart, as a heart symbol could make a strong motif on wall decals complemented by flowers. If your fondness of romantic culture extends to love poetry, those verses could feature on rugs, murals and prints.

Keep cool, calm and collected

Perhaps you already do as a matter of habit – in which case, you could make your home feel even more peaceful by attaching inspirational wall hangings and lighting soothing candles. However, don’t go overboard; for your laidback personality, you should adhere to the mantra of “less is more”.

Even your star sign might have influenced this aspect of your personality; the Daily Mail points out how Virgos and Capricorns love the traditional look in their homes. 

What if you love to feel full of energy?

In that case, you are probably quite spontaneous by nature, never happy with just settling for rigid, uniform principles with your approach to interior design. Therefore, feel free to run riot with your aesthetic endeavours – though you might like one particular idea suggested by Ideal Home…

The site explains that soft gold accents can bring a contemporary touch to a rich blue scheme. Perhaps a gold-coloured floor lamp could be just the addition you need?
