How to personalize your home

Ever felt like people around you don’t actually know you? You can do your best in trying to state out clearly who you really are, but no one can expect from you to do that every single day and with every single person. You have the freedom to personalize any space you consider to be truly yours. That is why we all have different wallpapers, screensavers ringtones and our social network profiles do not look alike. Why wouldn't you do that in your home too?


Add some colors

You happen to like a certain color very much? Why wouldn't you show it to everyone? We’re not talking about coloring all your walls, for example, yellow, putting yellow cushions, curtains, tablecloths and carpets all at once. You can be subtle and still allow your preferences to show. Adding different shades of your favorite color to different parts of your home will make you feel better whenever you look at it, and some of your guests could deduce what you like.

Let your favorite words surround you

There is nothing that speaks better of your personal style than yourself. Make an effort and turn simple words and letters into artwork. Put monograms or names of your family members on towels, walls or coffee mugs. Write the lyrics of your favorite song or names of the cities you visited, or would like to visit some day. Play with words, it can be wonderful. You can even order promotional items which would have your own name on, thus turning yourself into a brand. Anything is possible if you have a good idea, and you will always have words of love, peace and encouragement if front of you.

Display your dearest memories for everyone to see

Why let those wonderful, old family photos to rot forgotten in albums and boxes? Go through your family photos and pick those you like the most. Frame them and display them on walls and shelves for anyone to see. You can even order enlarged canvas prints to put on the walls of your home. You will love to see pieces of your past again and there will definitely be more people who will be inspired by what you did, and you can bet that they will do similar thing too very soon.

Order your own masterpiece

Children are at that age when they are capable of anything because they have not yet been told that they cannot do this or that. Have your children draw something for you. It could be anything – a portrait of you, themselves, or your pet. They can draw with anything they like – crayons, watercolor or pencils. Instead of admiring their artwork, putting it on a fridge and forgetting all about it later, have it framed and have it put on a wall so you and they can see it every day. They will love it and you will have your own masterpiece up on the wall of your living room.
