Decorating your home should be a fun experience that showcases your interests and loves.\u00a0 No one likes walking into a \u2018model home\u2019 looking house without personality.\u00a0 It looks nice but isn\u2019t a unique experience that is memorable for you or your guests.\u00a0 A great way to display what makes you tick is shelving or a contained space with your personality written all over it.\u00a0 You can keep the rest of your home model perfect but having a few elements that are unique to you will make all the difference.\u00a0 Here\u2019s how to stage and display your shelves of personality.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Whether you choose a bookcase, floating shelves, or a coffee table, pick a design space and keep it contained.\u00a0 This will be your area to flourish and express yourself.\u00a0 By setting limits on these areas, it won\u2019t look like clutter and makes it a design choice.\u00a0 Preplan what you want the theme to be or what you want the space to say.\u00a0 This is your chance to display your interests in a fun design-forward way.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Take a page from designers at unique stores like Anthropologie \u2013 you want levels within your display and well-defined areas.\u00a0 Purchase glass jars for filling, books, or wood blocks to create levels and depth in your space.\u00a0 You can display virtually anything if it\u2019s contained within an area.\u00a0 Have vintage action figures you want to display but worry about looking like nerd?\u00a0 Fill a glass container with a lid with all of them \u2013 you\u2019ll create an interesting display and showcase your love all in one.\u00a0 Containers and jars are a great way to keep things neat and uncluttered.\u00a0 Using blocks or ways to create levels will make your display interesting and keep the eye moving.\u00a0 Mix tall and short items to keep it stimulating.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Once you\u2019ve designed and placed your items, think about what is distracting the eye from seeing the space as a whole.\u00a0 You should always edit and try different placements to see what works the best.\u00a0 Maybe your collection of first edition Harry Potter books would look better a shelf down or breaking them up and spreading them out would make all the difference.\u00a0 Take a step back and enter the room and see where your eye is drawn.\u00a0 If you have trouble with this step, invite a friend over to help you give their first impressions.\u00a0 Never be 100% wedded to an idea or concept, it will be a process getting the right look and you\u2019ll know it when you see it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
There are many ways to tie everything in all together.\u00a0 Think color scheme or an overall way to make the collection a whole.\u00a0 You could display the same type of plant or flower throughout the space so it looks cohesive.\u00a0 You could try to keep the same color popping up here and there.\u00a0 Establish what your connecting design choice will be early on so it\u2019s easy to work in as you go.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Have fun designing your home by injecting personality in carefully curated areas. You will have a swoon-worthy space filled with personality and charm.\u00a0 It\u2019s the best of both worlds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
