"I like my house to be unique to me. Sure, I've bought plenty of things out of a catalog, but the way I put them together in my home is special. You might have bought your sofa at a major home decorating store, but the rug you found at the flea market is so unique, it takes your room from 'carbon copy' to 'simply yours' in no time." - Nate Berkus
Creating a cozy home is a major priority for us. We love finding unique pieces to help reflect our personalities. Also, G & I love having people over and entertaining, so a space that's warm and inviting is a must.
Below are six pieces to help elevate any home and create the perfect statement for you or your family.
- Bold Lamp - When I rented my first apartment, I found every possible way to make my small one bedroom home to feel unique. I got creative, and found that a lamp could really brighten up the place! There are so many gorgeous lamps that are really fun to design your home with. Also, it is nice to get away from the traditional lamps and get something that matches your personality.
- Eye-catching Wallpaper - Wallpaper can really transform a space, and it super easy to put up! Whether it be an accent wall in your bedroom, half-bath, or living room - this item can really open up your space if installed properly. Also, I do not recommend wallpaper in a full bathroom - the steam from the shower can totally ruin this work of art.
- Majestic Mirror - I love mirrors - they always make your space feel much bigger than it is! There are so many stunning pieces, so get creative and find one that fits your home and space.
- Over-sized Wall Art - Artwork is where you can really show off your personality. We love going to different home decor stores to see what is available to give our space a refresh. Also, there are times we can't find the perfect piece. Instead, we will get a photo printed and framed to create something special for our home.
- Crystal Chandelier - Chandeliers really give a bold statement in a home that may be lacking some larger wall space. Also, this provides an excellent source of light to any room.
- Stunning Sideboard - If you are needing extra storage space in your home, a sideboard is the perfect addition. G and I currently on the hunt for one to store some of our china and glasses! This is so perfect for any home, also you can use this piece as a bar, or to showcase some unique pieces.
What are your favorite pieces in your home that stand out? Also, are you on the hunt to adding some new items in your home?
