Quick Ways To Add Personality To Your Home

amomentwithfranca · 19 August 2021 · 6 Comments

Looking to add personality to your home? You should feel comfortable and relaxed in your space. We spend a lot of time in our homes, and it should be a place we can come to de-stress and forget about the responsibilities of the outside world. Your home should reflect your personality and lifestyle – whether it’s through colour, texture, or bold prints. It’s important to feel happy with your home and switch things up when you need a refresh.

Quick Ways To Add Personality To Your Home

Quick Ways To Add Personality To Your Home

How do you make your house feel like you?

Each room of your property should strike a balance between being practical and aesthetic. You could opt for glass fitted wardrobes for the bedroom to make the most out of the storage space and sleek aesthetic. It is always worth having some sophisticated furniture that adds to the décor and functionality of the room.

Here are a few other ways you add personality to your home.

Gallery wall

How to give a room character?

Wall décor is the perfect way to add character to a room without cluttering the surfaces. Use a gallery wall as the focal point of the room and curate a selection of your favourite artwork. Try to stick to a colour theme and select pieces in three different sizes. The colour theme will tie the pieces together, and the asymmetrical layout and sizes will help it look more relaxed. The key is to find a couple of anchor pieces and then build around those.

Consider adding interest to your walls with artwork or wall murals. A stunning wall mural can be a great focal point for your bedroom, adding personality and creativity to your space. Look for designs that reflect your style or complement your decors, such as a nature scene or cityscape. With customizable options available, you can easily find a wall mural to suit your taste and budget.

Scent

Pick a signature scent for your home to add a little personal touch. You could use your wedding scent or your favourite perfume to make your home feel cosy. Invest in diffusers or candles to give the space a subtle aroma throughout. Just make sure your chosen scent isn’t too overpowering or headache-inducing.

Industrial style

The industrial trend is still going strong. Use industrial-style light bulbs and oversized pendant lights to add character to your living room or office. You could use metal pipes as shelf brackets or door handles. The industrial trend is a great way to add character without adding bold patterns and loud colours. Sometimes a character comes in the form of different textures and unusual ornaments.

Paint

The easiest way to change up a room on your property is to paint it. Collect a few paint samples and pin them to the wall. See how they look at different times of the day and make sure the paint chosen matches your flooring and aesthetic. The best thing about paint is that if you don’t like it, you can redo it!

Put your own stamp on your space and have fun finding your interior style.

Do you switch things up when you need a refresh? Do you have any tips – especially quick ones – to add personality to your home?

    I really love feature walls – we don’t have one but they really do make all the difference. My sister in law had a burgundy one – it was stunning. #KCACOLS

    Paint can really be a game changer. When we moved into our forever home it was just magnolia everywhere. Slowly but surely we are adding character into each room with a fresh lick of paint. #kcacols

    These are great ideas, and so simple too. I love the gallery wall, that look is really in now and can make a big impact on any space. #KCACOLS
