Introduction to Accessorizing the Home


Accessories provide homes with meaning and mortality, which will assist you in knowing the difference between a residence or a showroom. You can determine a story by the home's style of accessories. The home's style dictates how the residents lives, to what is their interests or passions, where the homeowner has been whether traveling or growing up in different cultures, and it may reflect on tragedy or separation of loved ones.

Designing a home is difficult if you focus on just accessories. Many times, accessorizing is determining what is good to use and what not to include in your design. So many of the remaining accessories could be heirlooms, and that distinguishes the use of an accessory that has an attachment.

Comprehending concept through principles and embellishment of elements can be very easy. The best way to learn what the homeowner has available is to look through his or her home; the garage, the basement, the attic, or any storage. This is how a talented designer finds accessories to use in design. Usually, the object one uses in design or displayed in the home can create an attractive design layout. The designer should always make a list of what they can use on the property.

Objects a designer may use in displays are collectibles of figurines, plates, rocks, mirrors, nostalgic memorabilia, books, plants, glassware, antiques, awards, and bowls. The designer will know when enough is enough. The designer doesn't have to use everything, so use what needs to fit in the space properly.

But, if the client has a plethora of decorations—this happens when the homeowner buys everything they like, and not pay attention to where it will go when they get home—from different styles, and they put it together. The designer needs to explain that every space needs an attractive transition of style from one area to the next and show proper placement to the homeowner.

A designer will echo a brilliant design using the following groups for design elements or color by using the following items as a theme.

·         Color story in the home or homeowner's desire

·         Interests of the homeowner

·         Favorites of the homeowner

·         Desires of the homeowners

·         Layering of the owner's belongings

·         Focal point or Buffet

The designer will create arrangements of dolls or a decorative cylinder filled with corks or hotel keys. Antique stores, craft galleries, and flea market are fun places to shop for collectibles.

A memorable something can be an attractive and exciting story to boot. By making a pleasing display of accessories, family, friends, and neighbors will get a tickle from the way the house looks with various displays of personal interests or memories.

Avoid placing like items at opposite ends of a fireplace mantel.

Don't be dull and show symmetry on shelves and mantels. Instead, rely on clusters of objects to balance one another. Propped and overlapping photographs feel more casual Help unite a vignette on either end of the mantel.

Skirt distributing or using a single accessory to a room, and the designer should arrange groups and combine items that share a similar palette, character, and texture. Vary the size of pieces and use odd numbers for each vignette arrange elements in a pyramid tallest object in the back, from highest to lowest, if an item is small, group it with other minor items on a tray or in a bowl.

If an object is low, set it atop a decorative box or books. Unless you live in a library, mix accessories with books. Place paperback books in the bedroom or some place low-key. Books are treasures that warm up a room, and the most inexpensive accessory you can find. Don't forget the foundations of design and make a space warm and inviting.

The tall candles (gradation) on a coffee table, weighs down or holds the arrangement surrounded by objects of descending size. Minor items grouped tastefully on a tray, display a presence of similar items. The bowl of fruit works like fresh flowers--think "living" arrangements" never place something that looks old or outdated in space, as this can create a never moved or never touched look in the home. Pay close attention to scale; your arrangement should not be too big or too small for the surface of the item that the accessory is displayed. Think of a 1⁄4 piece of pie, and then look at your table using 1/4 of the space for arrangements.

Don't fill every tabletop with various accessories or too ornate. Design needs a chance to sink in, and one needs to rest from too much of everything. Always stagger sizes on coffee tables or flat surfaces. A stack of books can sit horizontally or vertically. Large to small Use books that coordinate or tie into other close objects within sight group objects that share a common character with consideration use unified colors, multiple finishes or texture.

Add individual items or unique pieces add a characteristic of the class, style, and passion. Don't hide an emotion in a closet if one is a collector. Group items together on shelves or tabletops display groupings on a wall. Only use curio cabinets when one's objects are valuable, or delicate Escape looks that often look tired or repeated and hinder interaction. Keep items moving in one's direction in any design. Combining lots of similar items make a combined weight, and this works well in grouping a design.

Whenever using mass or the volume of belongings, whether heavy to light, consider these accessories when designing the spaces in the home. These are not the only items, but they are four of the best to use in space to show various masses.

·        Color/Style/Stone/Glass

Collections do not need to be of high value. A display of PEZ dispensers, Asian fans, straw hats, or Tsum-Tsum characters can have a significant influence on your design. Frankly, practically anything can look decent if you group enough together. Fret not If you have a few right pieces, toss in a few "phonies". One can always replace the few phony items with better ones as you gain them.

Be diligent in finding great value for frugal décor, and resonate an accent color when rooms have accent colors that are dominant. Repeat the colors in the accessories to tie the chamber together. Keep your eyes entertained. Provide your eyes with some place to travel. Display the accessories to pick up the dominant accent color in the room. One will actively look for the color in another location or object.

Glass accessories on the coffee table make even ordinary objects look unique because it makes things stand out or sparkle. Look for balance, and use sculptures or adjust lamps on a console table or use art groups to equalize large or tall photographs.

Equalized photos will bridge the distance between furniture and the ceiling in high spaces or large gallery style walls. Be open to surprise when everyday objects are taken out of perspective and titled as a work of art. Use old weight scales, horse tricycles, radio flyers, cups on a chandelier, books for a table base, hubcaps for wall art, and trunks for tables; there is no end to the possibilities of what you use to make a statement. People decorate with vintage microscopes, scissors, and magnifying glasses, or even old telephone glass insulators that look like old bells.

... The only limit to design is your imagination.
