Where to begin?

If you look at the many examples of decorative items that decorate living spaces of different functionality, it seems difficult. But working on home decor with your own hands is so multifaceted:

• brings pleasure from the creative process;
• develops creative inclinations and imagination;
• makes it possible to give life to unnecessary things;
• connects 2-3 generations to an exciting occupation, if you work together.

When it comes to choosing ideas for home decor with your own hands, it is important to take into account the opinion of all family members. In your room or personal space, you can rely on your taste, if the new interior decoration does not offend anyone’s feelings and aesthetic standards.

If someone is against the skulls of Swarovski stones in a wicker frame from newspapers, you should not insist that it hang in the dining area or hallway. Such “interesting” decor can decorate the room of a teenager who is fond of youth subcultures. In the common room, decoration should be neutral and completely aesthetic. Likewise, if someone is annoyed by the inscriptions “LOVE” on the walls, the decor of volumetric letters hanging on a fishing line, let him decorate the glamorous bedroom of a student girl.

Ikebana and other ways to decorate with flowers.

Decorating a home with flowers and incense has been practiced in all ancient times. But beautiful and fragrant home decor had its own canons. We used natural and artificial flowers, both live and dry. Natural material is the best, but artificial flowers often compete with them in exquisite beauty, they are durable, do not require maintenance. Flower lovers prefer original bouquets and compositions according to the canons of Japanese ikebana, made of contrasting flower branches, embodying the unity of the elements. Compositions should be in harmony with the style of the interior.

Hand-made exposition for decorating a house with your own hands

Any hobby can become a source of pride if you correctly arrange the exposition as an apartment decor with your own hands. The same photos of your favorite puppies or orchids, enlarged and exhibited in their original frames, are a great idea to decorate your personal space. Some draw well, but hesitate to put it on public display. It is worth trying to add your best drawing to the sides and expose it in the form of a modular picture – when each element is completely independent, but together they form an unfolded canvas.

Crocheted tablecloths and hand-made napkins have been appreciated at all times. But the pattern must be beautiful enough, the product must be harmonious..

Unnecessary trash – endless possibilities for those who have original home decor ideas:

• ottomans made of plastic bottles and a baby cotton blanket in a cover made of expensive material;
• sitting in the hallway from a stack of old suitcases or magazines;
• a rug by the front door made of old leather belts;
• original kitchen lamps made of perforated plastic, openwork napkins, rope “tangle”, disposable cups;
• updating a stool or chair for sitting is a great idea for DIY decor (leather, fur, velor, knitted squares, quilted satin);
• dynamic compositions in the form of volumetric figures made of paper, cardboard, plastic or vinyl (butterflies, birds, owls, animals from “Madagascar”).
