Different Ways to Display Art in Your Home
A home is a perfect place to truly express yourself. A place to add your personal flavor with unique décor. There are so many ways to do this between furniture, wall color, window coverings, and of course ART! The type of artwork you display in your home says a lot about your style and uniqueness. Whether you have more of a contemporary style or love the crazy prints, we have rounded up the best ways to display art in your home.
The first thing to consider when hanging art in your home is to decide what colors you want to display. Some like the colors to pair nicely with the wall color and some like nice bold colors to stand out from the walls. Either way, playing with colors can be a fun, great way to show your creativity. Be sure to consider the frame when choosing bold art. It may be best to go with a simple, straight edge frame instead of a bolder frame with bold artwork. While we’re on the topic of colors, you may also consider the lack of color, as well. A cool idea is to have an all (or mostly) white room, including your artwork! This looks best if your print or painting has some sort of texture to it, but either way, you will be sure to wow your guests.
The next idea should peak the vintage lovers interest. If you are intrigued by older art and illustrations that represent the past, why not add that to your home? Display a collection of antique posters to your kitchen or family room. Not only does it show your historical interest, but it also serve as a great conversation starter, as well. Vintage décor is pretty popular right now, but there are so many different ways you can go with it so it is still sure to make you unique.
Next, we have some ideas for the more “bold” designer. If you live by phrases like “Expect the Unexpected”, this is for you. Why not put a beautiful, large painting in the bathroom or even the kitchen (if space permits)? I personally love it when I see things like this. It really makes someone stand out from the others. Another great idea for a bold look is to embrace odd numbers. By this I mean, Display a number of 5, 7, or 9 prints in an area. There are so many ways to make this look unique, but still clean and organized. People get too scared to break away from even, concise displays, but not you, bold one.
Another tip we want to share with you is to not forget about the commonly overlooked areas of your home. Leaving hallways, home offices, and other little nooks bare can have a huge impact on the feel of your home. Even if you just add some smaller family pictures, historical memorabilia, or just smaller paintings or prints, it will make a world of difference! A little extra touch here or there will go a long way.
Your home is a reflection of you and your family. The things you have experienced, the hobbies you enjoy, and really just whatever makes you happy, are what makes your home unique. Whether you like to stay consistent, or have a different theme for every room, there is no wrong way to display art in your home.
