Accenting Your Home a Challenge? Try These Tips. 

Home Accents & More

Adding the home accents and accessories to your decor may seem more challenging than it actually is.

Accenting your home should first begin with you. It is not just about your likes and your dislikes, it's also about any collections you may have. No collections yet? Well, collections are easier to start than you think.

Just think about the things that you are naturally attracted to. I love roses, so I began collecting Capodimonte roses. You? Are you attracted to clocks? Spherical things like decorative balls? Figurines? Keys? There are tons of things out there to collect. Simply begin noticing what things you are attracted to.

Many times people are attracted to certain things but hold off from getting them because they ask themselves 'what am I going to do with it?'

Decorating your home should be about showcasing who you are. Your home is a very personal place. It is where you can relax and be yourself. So show off who you are by surrounding yourself with the things you love.

Begin your own Capodimonte Rose collection.

Many of us already have, or have thought about, using decorative plates for our wall decor. Not every plate quite meets the standards of ''collectible plates'.

This one does! This decorative plate is from the Capodimonte Home Decorations Collection. This wall decor plate features elegant porcelain flowers set upon and equally stunning porcelain plate.

The size is 13" Diam. X 4" Deep and retails for $ 114.00. Seem a little pricey? Not if you consider that over time, Capodimonte pieces go up in price. What you are actually paying for is the name Capodimonte. Capodimonte home decorations have stood the test of time for centuries, with the original pieces being kept in major museum's around the world.

It is difficult to beat the value of Capodimonte.

Wall Sconces & Wall Vases 

Home Accents & More

When I think of wall sconces, I think of wall sconces that hold candles. They are generally made of wrought iron, metal, porcelain etc....

But there are also wall sconces that hold live flowers and dried arrangements. I think the prettiest of these wall vases are the ones that are made of wrought iron or metal and have glass inserts, or metal containers for your flowers.

These wall sconces are great for framing out a picture, or staggering two or three on your wall. The great thing about these wall sconces is that they even look great when there is nothing in them !

Use your imagine and picture where you would them on your wall. These wall sconces, or also known as wall sconces are very versatile and add depth and texture to your wall.

Wrought Iron & Metal - How to.... 

A simple tip for keeping your wrought iron looking great may sound a little strange, but it works.

When you first receive your wall decor, or any wrought iron, or metal piece for that matter, give it a couple of light coats of clear spray paint. This will help protect metal or wrought iron from getting rusty or changing colors.

Now I know your first instinct will be to think about getting rustoleum paint. However, that is not necessary. Just go to any department store that carries paint products and get a cheap can of clear spray paint.

Thoroughly clean and wipe down your piece, then give it a light coat of paint. When that first coat dries, lightly paint it again.

You will end up with a piece of metal or wrought iron for the indoors, or outdoors, that will last longer.

If properly placed, a wall clock can bring your entire room together.

Home Decorating Ideas 

Home Accents & More

Choosing home decor accessories can be a challenge sometimes. We know what we like but we don't know how to put it together.

For people that don't find home decorating easy, I recommend thinking in pairs. When you have a pair of like items you can create balance in a room.

Think about the table lamps in your living room. Generally we have an end table on both ends of our sofa. Each table usually has identical table lamps on them. This creates a sense of balance. The sofa is balanced by the end tables, the end tables are balanced by the table lamps.

If you repeat this pattern throughout the room, including the wall decor, you can create an atmosphere that you want to relax in.

Mix it up a little. Add some soft delicate things like pillows and throws. Then add some wrought iron or metal to your decor. Add a metal shelf with some porcelain pieces on it. Don't shy away from mixing textures. If you think in terms of 'pairs' of items, your decorating chore will be much easier.

Wall Decorations 

Home Accents and More

Just look at these stars and tell me that your imagine doesn't run wild with ideas. No ideas? Ok then, let's give you a couple of ideas.

Wall decorations can be difficult to choose. Because they are at eye level, or close to it, they are one of the first things that people see when they enter your home.

When choosing wall decorations you should choose something that will stand the test of time. Metals are an excellent choice because they have been a part of home decor since, well... since forever almost. And metals are so versatile and easy to work with.

As you can see, these stars are silver, but because they are metal, if you decide you want them a different color, just get yourself a can of spray paint and paint them.

This is one reason thatmetal wall decor is popular. Because it so easy to work with. Try it for yourself.

Solve Your Wall Decor Problem with This Unique Piece 

Home Accents and More

Choosing wall decorations can be difficult. Candle sconces can be found in most lighting stores. Mirrors can also be found in most decorating stores. However, sometimes having the two combined offers a simple solution to your wall decorations.

When you use a combination of mirrors and candle sconces, you are serving two purposes at the same time. The mirrors are functional with or without the candles lit.

Yet when you want more ambiant lighting, simply light the candles. The mirrors will reflect the soft light of the candles giving your room a more soft romantic touch. Not to mention the metal wall decor in between these mirors.

This wall decoration is one of the simplest ideas, and will solve several problems at the same time.

Showing off Collections for Your Home Accents 

Home Accents and More

Do you have a collection of things that you love? If you do, is your collection displayed? For many people collecting things is an art in itself, with the joy of searching for that new piece being almost as important as actually receiving that piece.

There are a large number of people who enjoy collecting wishing wells like the one pictured here. This one is a Capodimonte porcelain wishing well and the collections of these pieces have stood the test of time.

Capodimonte porcelain pieces are made in Italy. And are still made by hand. Yes, they use molds for much of the work, but there is no automation involved in the process. Each piece is done individually.

That is why Capodimonte has stood the test of time. Collectors have been collecting Capodimonte for centuries now, with the original pieces being stored in major museums around the world.

If you have not started a collection yet, take a look at Capodimonte They offer many home decorations that are unique.

Table Lamps 

Home Accents and more

Let's talk about lighting today. When you think about the various types of lighting in your home you generally think about the lighting fixtures. Table lamps come to my mind immediately.

Table lamps are great because they supply a source of task lighting, accent lighting and ambient lighting.

Think about the style of your home and your own personal style. Then think about what type of Table lamp reflects both of those. Then start searching for a table lamp that is both unusual and interesting.

Whether your style is modern, classical, traditional, victorian or country, select a lamp that reflects who you are and want you want to become.

But just any old table lamp won't quite do. You need to get creative and show off both your personality and your homes personality.

Traditional Home Decor Ideas 

Home Accents & more

Living room design can be challenging if you want to achieve the traditional look. Traditional home decor is both timeless and elegant.

Fabrics and colors play a key role in establishing the traditional decor. Deep rich colors in your furniture, walls and window decor are the easy way to accent this look.

Wood floors of course, are the best way to go, however, if you have a light colored carpet, then just add a richly colored throw rug under your coffee table.

Elegant tapestries add to the designer feel of the room, as do intriguing lamps and lighting. Add a few decorative pillows on the sofa, some interesting vases and accessories should complete the room.

If you are not very experienced yet at designing your own rooms, try to think in pairs. A pair of lamps, or a pair of vases. When you add home accents in pairs it gives a finished look to the room.

About Mammie

I decided to use the term "Mammie" as my name because that is what my grandchildren call me. It started out with Grammie, but my oldest grandson started to call me mommy. So we switched it to Mammie because it was easier for him to say.
