Easy Cottage-Style Decorating For Your Home
Cottage-style décor is a great way to create a light, airy look in your home. It’s easy to create a beautiful, comfortable home, even when on a budget, with this type of design style. It doesn’t matter what style of home you live in—you can easily transform your current look into a vintage look for very little money. Do you want your rooms to look as though they float on the breeze? Then try out this look—you’re sure to love it.
Use Light Colors
Light colors are the key to creating this look. Many people mistakenly believe that white is the only color used in this décor. But using soft pastel shades of blue, aqua, yellow, pink, and green combined with a healthy dose of white will make the room just as light and airy, while the color provides interest and depth.
Make Great Use of Paint!
Painting is an affordable and effective way to create a dramatic change in your home. In a cottage-style décor, you can paint your walls one of the pastel colors mentioned above. Paint opposite walls only for a truly original look, leaving the other walls white. Then you can trim baseboards in a contrasting shade.
For that worn look with your furniture, paint is great as well. All you need to do to create that vintage look is to take a coffee or end table, paint it a pastel color or white, and sand the edges lightly, giving it an antique feel. Look for great bargains on small tables at flea markets and garage sales.
Surprising Floors
For most people, the types of flooring they consider are wood, tile, or carpet. In a cottage décor, wood floors are preferable. Although light-colored wood planks are great, you can use any type of wood. Leave them as is or paint them a shade of your choosing.
You can stencil your own area rug or the perimeter of the floor for a truly unique and absolutely inspiring look. If you go with carpet, if it’s light-colored, then that will work. Just use vintage-looking rugs to anchor your furnishings.
Create Interest with Furnishings
Your furnishings in this style can either be new or old. If you’re going with new furniture, choose pieces where the wood is light in color. You can make furniture particularly warm and inviting by upholstering it with small pastel floral prints. When you toss throw pillows on your sofa, mix and match the patterns. With this style, anything you like will work!
For your solid oak coffee tables, end tables and modern book cases, you can really put your imagination to work. See if you can get a hold of an old door or if there’s one in the garage. Then you can do whatever you like with it: cut it down, paint it, sand it, or stencil it. Then simply add legs, and you’ll have a completely unique coffee table.
Think Simple When You Accessorize
With this design style, accessories can be anything you like. However, you want to avoid overdoing it, as you don’t want to end up with rooms that look messy or cluttered. Just place a few simple pieces you enjoy around the room. For example, a simple white vase filled with wildflowers is perfect. Then place the vase on an end table on top of a stack of two or three old books. Or try a small lamp with a beaded lampshades to complement this look.
Cottage décor really has no rhyme or reason to it. Just be sure you love all the furniture and accessories you choose, and it will all end up falling together. Remember to have fun and enjoy creating this beautiful, inexpensive, new look.
