It's no secret that when you redecorate your home, you breathe a sigh of relief. Small details make the difference, and in a home where you feel good, harmony reigns. A few creative decorations, lots of love, and imagination - here's the recipe for the perfect home!

Find out below the creative decorations that should be found in your home!

Fireplace decorated with plants

If your fireplace is malfunctioning, at least for three quarters of the year, then don't abandon it, give it a role. The decorative one! Enrich it with pots of plants, colorful flowers, and, most importantly, insert an oversized plant in the place where the wood burns in winter.

You will not only change the desolate appearance of a non-functioning fireplace but the air of the whole house!

Gives personality to the kitchen

The kitchen is the place where, surprisingly, we spend most of our free time. Not necessarily for cooking, but because it's a friendly corner, perfect for drinking coffee, reading a book, or chatting with friends.

There is no need to renovate the kitchen, do not rush to change the furniture, do not bother to whitewash. Just change the wallpaper! A brightly colored wallpaper with a floral motif, an aquatic theme, or a retro pattern could change the whole atmosphere.

In addition, a splash of color not only helps to change the overall look of the kitchen but also to change your mood.

Do you want a quick and efficient change? The easiest way to redecorate creatively is to use mirrors in your home.

You can't even imagine the beneficial effect of placing a large mirror in the bathroom, for example, how much space it offers and how easy it is to change the whole atmosphere of a small, dark, and oppressive space with just a mirror.

In less spacious, less bright, or less bright places, a mirror can work wonders! And with so many models available today, you just have to use your imagination! That means being creative, seeing where change begins!

Wallpaper on one wall

Analyze the living room a little and, before you think about what decorative objects to load it with, dare to wallpaper a wall. One is enough. Follow the general tones of the room and choose a wallpaper in complementary colors. Be creative, dare to break the monotony!

Childhood artwork

Any work done by a child is, without a doubt, a work of art. Children do their best in their work, they do not compromise on passion, they do not worry unnecessarily, and their freedom and creativity have no limits.

If you want to contribute to the harmony of the home with original creative decoration, collect the little one's works, make a special panel and attach it to a wall - possibly next to the bookshelf, next to an armchair where you spend your time reading or in the hallway, at the entrance, where it can be admired by all guests. Childhood does not go out of style!

Combining styles

Kate Reynolds, co-owner of Studio Four, New York City, says combining luxury and vintage decorative items could give the space a special air. The combination of the new with the old, although you would be tempted to think that it would be like a walnut on the wall, has a significant impact from a decorative point of view. So is the combination of expensive and cheap items. Ultimately, it's not the price of the items that matter, it's your skill at choosing them.

Insert outside elements… inside

The best way to balance elegant lines and contemporary furniture is to introduce natural elements into the interior space. As elegant and inappropriate as it may seem, an exterior element can add personality to the home.

A few cubes specific to the exterior walls or a coffee table in a log are just a few ideas to inspire you. Combining styles is a must-try of 2018, and the effect will inspire others. Accept innovation!

Combining textures can be an art! Opt for the play between wood and leather, silk and cotton, satin and fluffy fabrics. You can easily play with the contrasts between carpet, wallpaper, curtains, rugs, or the materials that cover armchairs and sofas.

Yes, it sounds atypical, it sounds risky, but it can be spectacular! Use your imagination!

Gives color

Creative decorations for 2018? Imagine for a second you were transposed into the karmic-driven world of Earl. The same rules can be applied to a space, only you have to be a little more careful about the connection between them.

And the link means paired elements - for example, floral decorations that are mirrored in floral prints, complementary colors, and surprising textures of objects.

Inspirational space

Bring together small travel memories, decorative objects that tell stories and allow your home to be constantly changing and evolving, through the small details constantly brought.

The most beautiful decorations remain the ones that represent you. Before you follow the rules of interior design, take into account your personality and comfort.

Before you rush to move everything into the house, make major, costly changes, and invest in new things, you should use your imagination, creativity, and skill. You can make the most inspired creative decorations for your home!

Explore the endless possibilities and exploit your creativity! That's all you need to start a low-budget interior design project!
