Use an accent wall to brighten up a plain room

Instead of painting all four walls in a room with a bright shade of paint, which can make your room look smaller, paint an accent wall with a vibrant shade of paint to inject added color into your room. For example, you may want to leave three walls in your bedroom white and paint the wall behind your bed's headboard teal or forest green. Alternatively, you may want to paint an accent wall in your home office.1

Decorate your home with tropical, vacation-inspired pieces

Ideally, you should feel happy and relaxed as soon as you step foot into your home. So it's a great idea to lift your mood by decorating your home with tropical, vacation-inspired pieces. For example, you may want to place a bamboo chair or coffee table in your lounge, or you may want to purchase a banana print duvet for your master bedroom. If you are lucky enough to live in a coastal city, you may want to hang up some beach prints on your walls. 

Use a bookshelf to display your decorative items

Don't feel limited to displaying books on your bookshelves as you can also place decorative items such as candles, vases, small sculptures, and family photos on your bookshelves. If you're a confessed jet-setter, you can also display travel trinkets on your bookshelves so that you'll remind yourself of your worldwide adventures each time that you walk past your bookshelves.

Ensure that your home boasts plenty of comfortable spaces

As well as investing in a comfortable, stylish sofa, it's also well worth ensuring that your home boasts plenty of comfortable spaces to relax and spend quality time with family and friends. For example, you may want to have a window seat built in your bedroom, or you may want to purchase a chaise for your home office.2

Purchase chic ottomans for your lounge

If you're searching for additional seating for your lounge, you can't go wrong purchasing a few ottomans. Ottomans are a great investment as they serve multiple purposes and can be used as footstools and additional seating. Some examples of ottomans that you can purchase include leather ottomans, suede ottomans, velvet ottomans, and traditional Turkish ottomans. 

Bright kitchen cabinets and islands

Forgot traditional white, brown, and black kitchen cabinets and islands in 2021? Bright kitchen cabinets and islands are trending. As an example, you may want to replace your kitchen cabinets' plain doors with on-trend, navy blue doors. Or you might be interested in injecting color into your kitchen by having a bright red kitchen island placed in your kitchen.3

Use large floral prints to decorate your home

Floral prints don't have to remind you of your grandmother's house as large, bold floral prints are on-trend in 2021. If you're interested in giving one of your rooms a fresh lease on life, select a fun floral wallpaper to liven it up. 

Use textured items to add warmth to your home

The texture is trendy in 2021. If you want your home to feel warm, cozy, and inviting, ensure to purchase a textured rug for your lounge and to place a textured throw such as cashmere or faux fur blanket on your sofa. It's also a great idea to place a textured rug in your home office. 

Purchase bespoke furniture and decorations

Instead of purchasing cheap, mass-produced furniture and decorations, a growing number of individuals are choosing to purchase one of a kind, bespoke furniture items, and decorations. There are two distinct advantages to buying bespoke decor items. The first of which is that handmade items crafted by an experienced artisan are built to stand the test of time. The second advantage of choosing to purchase bespoke pieces is that you'll be the proud owners of beautiful, unique items that express your individuality and unique sense of style.
