Are you ready for new style and new change in your home or apartment? Would you like to decorate your home to be the envy of the neighborhood? Whether your home is small or large, every interior space can be transformed into a beautiful and comfortable oasis.

So how can you decorate your home to be stylish, inviting and comfortable? Decorating your space starts with your personal style. Your personal style is a reflection of you. Do you know what your personal style is?

Your personal style is collected through your life’s experiences, travel. Education, shopping sprees and more, and add memorabilia that can be proudly displayed in every room in the house.

You have collectables that can be displayed throughout your home that reflects your personal tastes and style. Perhaps it was the vases you purchased from Italy, or the accent rug from China.

All these collectables, whether from a special vacation of a lifetime or a simple, quick stop at your favorite home store, is exactly what your personal style is all about. All these items you purchased were exactly what you liked, made you smile, made you feel good.

Now if you’re not sure what your personal style is, I suggest that you take some time to visit your local furniture stores and designer showcases. They will display “vignettes” or an arrangement of furniture, fabric, color and home accents that will certainly get your juices flowing.

You will see living room vignettes, bedroom, kitchen and dining rooms. These vignettes will help you to formulate what you like and don’t like. You’ll see a variety of color, texture and accents that will aid you in your decision making process.

But always remember this rule of thumb. Never purchase furniture without measuring your space first. These kinds of mistakes will be very costly for you.

Besides shopping furniture stores, you can shop online to get your decorating ideas. Also, clip out your favorite home decors from decorating magazines. Ask yourself what you like best and least about your selections in the vignettes and magazine cut outs. These pictures will always inspire you and help you to connect with your personal style.
