Home decor is primarily about visuals. People ordinarily choose designs and elements that speak to them. Whether you prefer minimalism or chic elegance, you can transform your home into a space that works for you.
Here are 10 tips to keep in mind when you are planning your home decor.
1. Finalizing a theme for your home decor will set the foundation for the next steps. Pick a color palette or aesthetic style, to begin with. If you want to get creative, put together a mood board.
2. Knowing exactly how much you want to invest in your home styling is important. Identify a budget and split that into sub-categories based on accessories, furniture, lights & fixtures, etc.
3. Before you begin purchasing home decor items, have a rough design for all the rooms. This should include every detail that you can think of so that there is no room for errors or gray areas.
4. Try to ensure that every nook and corner of your home aligns with the overall aesthetic and doesn’t clash in style (unless, of course, you were going for exactly that!).

5. It can be easy to misinterpret space availability. So always take note of exactly how much space there is for each of the home decor items you are planning to buy.
6. Along with noting down the space constraints, make sure to map the measurements of a product, as mentioned on the product page, to where they would be placed. This will enable you to buy products that are the right fit.
7. It’s always a good idea to shortlist a few alternatives before you make your decision. In doing so, you could experiment with different looks and see which one has a better appeal.
8. Reviews provide a lot more insight than you’d think. They are a treasure trove of information about quality, durability, etc. So look for reviews of products before you invest in them.
9. Usually, with products that require some assembling or maintenance, you’ll find information about it from the seller. To know exactly what you are getting into, look for this information before you make the purchase.

10. When you shop online, especially for home decor items, sometimes there can be a disconnect between the colors and textures shown on the website versus what has been delivered. So, know about the return policy and what flexibility you have to exchange products in case they don’t align with your expectations.
