17 Aug, 2021

Home decor is an interesting subject. Just by adding a few interesting items, you can convert your home into a photogenic (read: Instagrammable) place. The best way of decorating your home is actually going step by step- either one room at a time or one purchase at a time so that it does not get overwhelming and is also easy on your pocket.

You can have a look at several different home decor websites or blogs but the best way to do it is by picking out things that you feel suit your decor and taste the best. Waking up to the same thing every day can make one feel overwhelmed and home decor is the best way to overcome this and have a bit of change and feel the freshness. We have picked out some amazing home decor ideas that will help you get a headstart!

 

Bookends

While books are a great way to spend your leisure time, neatly stacked books with beautiful bookends can bring a unique touch to your decor. You can place them on tabletops or in your living area on the corner table. Arranging books can be quite a task but using fancy bookends can not only help you neatly stack your books but also give your decor an attractive look. You can choose them based on the size of your collection and your current theme of home decor- vintage, wooden, modern or antique. This beautiful bookend from The Decor Circle can be a perfect choice for you. 

Antique wall hangings

This is one element that has garnered a lot of attention in the last few years. Pink Salt is sourced from the World’s Second Largest Salt mines in Khewra and is said to be one of the purest salt on Earth. Chunks of this salt, around 3-5 Kgs, are fitted with lamps at the bottom to make these aesthetic decor pieces. They give out a soft amber glow which creates a lovely ambience. Not only this, but it also brings positivity and peaceful vibes to a room. You can buy these lamps from HaveRaw.

Water/Beverage Dispensers, the unique way
