3 Questions to Ask Yourself Before Buying Home Decor

Want to transform your living space into a cozy oasis? If so, pillows and rugs can can really tie a room together.  However, with so many choices on the market, shopping for home accessories can be an overwhelming experience. Before you do any shopping this weekend, consider these questions below:

1. Why do you like it? Try not to get confused between what you like and what is on trend. Instead, make a clear distinction between what is popular and what suits your true, personal style. Remember that a trendy item may not fit well with your home’s decor. With that being said, don’t make the mistake of purchasing accessories you will eventually get tired of looking at.

2. Will it match what you already have? We typically like to buy things simply because we think they look nice, but it’s important to consider how an item will work with what we already have. For example, if everything in your home follows a traditional style, then buying a geometric patterned pillow probably won’t look the best. Similarly, if you have one piece of decor in your home that you cling to, such as an oriental rug, base the rest of the room off of the style and color scheme of that rug.

3. How is the quality? It is normal to gravitate to the sale section. However, lower price tags can also indicate lower quality. Invest in accessories that are well-constructed. That way, you can rest assured knowing that it will last for years to come. Best of all, you won’t have to worry about replacing it frequently. Keep in mind, though, that this isn’t to say that everything should be expensive; rather, it means you’re better off buying a few pieces that will be worth it in the long run.
