Using Bar Stools Even if You Don’t Have a Bar

I have always loved the look of bar stools, something about them just says fun and relaxation. IF you home doesn’t have a bar or high countertop, don’t let that stop you from utilizing such a cool piece of furniture. You can create your own bar in an area of your home or outdoor patio area. Whether you build it from brick, stone or wood, you can easily create that atmosphere in your home.

If bar stools are what you love, you can choose the bar stools first to dictate the style of bar you will build. If you like wooden and straw like stools you might want to build a wood bar. But if you want metal and leather stools, you would be better off with a stone or brick bar. However you go about building your bar, think about the other components you may want like a sink, grill, keg or wine fridge, cabinets for stemware and plates. Check out Pinterest for good ideas on how to build a bar and find matching barstools.

Using accent pieces like decorative artwork, painted canvases and well positioned plants can add color and a coziness that will invite feelings of relaxation. Mix in different materials with your decor from wood, glass and metal to stone and rock. Balancing out your room with various elements will help define your sense of style without over doing it. Keep in mind to use either contrasting colors or monochromatic, but don’t use both. Define your sense of style and then decorate around that in supporting methods, building upon each layer with excitement and passion.

Unique Lighting for Your Home

Adding unique lighting elements can instantly change the look and feel of a room. Installing lighting is much easier than you think, but if you are unsure, it is always better to be safe than sorry, particularly when dealing with electrical. If you are in doubt, hire a reputable electrician. Sometimes you may need to do some drywall repair if you are changing a lot about the lighting setup. Before you start your project take note of all the aspects of your project that will need repair and rank it from low level to top priority repair work and make a rough timeline and budgeted costs. Doing a little homework in advanced of starting will save you a lot of time and money in the long run.

I love unique lighting fixtures like highly architectural chandeliers that cross a balance of tough and strong with elegance. Using varying light bulb wattage and colors help provide different focal points just with lighting. You can find great inspirations on the internet or look through catalogs from Restoration Hardware, Ballard Designs and more.

Rope it In – Using Rope In Your Home Decor

Rope is hot in decor right now and there’s good reason. It’s inexpensive, incredibly neutral and it is abundant in texture and use. You can see rope in hurricane vases, small waste baskets, lamps, bulletin boards and more. When twisted or braided together, string or yarn is combined together in a linear fashion in order to make the material into a larger and stronger form.

When using rope as a decorative element, it is fairly easy to work with, but there are a few tricks. You can use hot glue which is pretty easy to use, but make sure that you cover the glue so it is not seen as it tends to not look good. You can also use a thread and needle to connect ends upon one another. Using bright colors like orange and navy blue are great because they give a nautical feel. You can also use a lot of white when working with rope and glass, incorporating other beach like decorative elements such as sand, beach glass, rocks and shells. Places like HobbyLobby and Home Goods are good places to get the materials to do your own rope decor.
