How to Achieve Your Favorite Home Décor Style


A professionally designed home looks like it achieves its beauty effortlessly. However, professionals know that mastering a certain décor is anything but effortless — every choice, right down to the paint, matters. You don’t have to work with a professional to recreate the look you want, you just have to pay attention to what’s already around you.

A DIY Tip for Every Project

Do you count the days until the new Houzz electronic newsletter arrives? Do you worship Martha Stewart and every tip she releases? Even if you don’t have 2 years worth home décor magazines stashed in your bookcase, gathering ideas now makes future decisions easier.

Start saving your favorite ideas on paper in a special place. When it’s time to redecorate, you’ll have a handy resource of ideas that match your unique taste, whether it’s vintage, contemporary or something in between.

How to Recreate a Vintage Home Style

Vintage is one of the hottest trends in home design. You can achieve a vintage look by mixing real vintage furnishings with newly purchased ones. Vintage artwork, pottery and accents are great ways to give your home a vintage feel — tag sales are great for finding one-of-a-kind and quirky pieces. Mix real vintage décor with a furnishing such as a Persian-inspired carpet. You’ll get the vintage style, minus the worn and smelly remnants.
If you’re planning to renovate your kitchen or bath, choose traditional white cabinetry and quartz countertops that resemble marble. Brass fixtures and subway tile complete the look beautifully.

Traditional Home Décor

Traditional home décor is always in style, but today’s most innovative traditional looks blend pieces from different collections. Instead of buying a sofa, loveseat and chair in the same upholstery, try mixing pieces that complement one another instead. For example, choose accent furnishings that share the same finish but not the identical style. You can also invest in a classic sofa with accent chairs in different upholstery to give your room a traditional style that’s anything but plain.  

Modern Home Design

Contemporary furnishings give your home a completely different feel. But today’s modern home design is anything but cold — warm contemporary furnishings can give your décor an almost global feel. Seating is a great way to test out a modern look, and few modern pieces have achieved the appeal of the Parsons chair. Perfect for the kitchen, dining room or anyplace where you need additional seating, the Parsons chair is an elegant and comfortable option that blends with almost any home. Need a table to match? Try the Charlestown Glass Table.
