When accessorizing a room, I first advise our customers to choose their linens and fabrics, window treatments, and flooring. Once this is completed, you can take your fabrics to the paint store and have your paint matched to your fabrics. The last step is to accessorize and have fun.
When accessorizing a room, size matters. While it is unimportant whether it is expensive or inexpensive, antique or new, the scale and proportion of an accessory is everything. Remember: Dressing a person and dressing a room are quite similiar--both make a personal statement. The fabrics you choose--flowers, paintings, ceramics--leave you and others with your very intimate signature. Sometimes the space you leave empty is as important as the space you fill if it's not just right. While accessories can give a room character, it can also be overdone.
Every room in a home has its own personality. Accessories in a room should always seem personal and not store-bought. Your home will mean more to you if you tell a story. If using family pictures, give them character by putting them in a quality picture frame that blends with the picture. Stack your favorite books or magizines on chairs, coffee table, and bedside tables. Take your umbrella stand and gather a collection of your favorite umbrellas. Hang your favorite picture on the most prominent wall. These are just a few idea on personalizing a space.
Walls are physical elements in a room. The way they are treated relays a message about the room.
