interior decorating

Adding interest to your Nautical decorating theme with the proper accessories is a good way to enhance the decorating scheme. In keeping with the style of the sea, you will need to invest in zesty and unique accessories that have a beach themed look. Your nautical décor will really have that designer look when you add a few decorative wall art, knick-knacks, and pillows.

Displaying your wall art correctly is critical for the right impact. Many homeowners hang paintings and prints so that the bottom or top edges line up, but you should arrange them so that the center of the pieces line up. If you have many prints to put on one wall, lay them out on the floor first to get the right design. Placing ships wheels, boat prints in grouping can work to add appeal to the Nautical decorating theme.

Decorative pillows are another accessory you could try using to spice up your décor. You can come up with a use for pillows in each room including the kitchen and bathroom. Pillows can be enjoyed in the kitchen as well as the bathroom, think about displaying them in chairs, on the hamper or on shelves. In the bedroom, compliment them to your design theme but buy patterns and fabrics that are all different with one matching element. Pillows on the chairs or couches in your den, family room or living room should help instill a bit of the nautical decor look. For this style of interior design, pillows that are blue and white prints will look best.

Other items which can help complete the feeling of the sea include ships models, old brass spyglasses, and vintage sextents. To better enhance your decorating theme, you should select accessories that not only match each other, but also the decorating scheme. Don’t stray to far from your decorating theme or you can end up with a confusing design theme.

No matter what your decorating approach is, you can add a bit of appeal to your room design with knick knacks. To add appeal to your nautical decor, think of using knick knacks with a zesty and unique appeal. Adding a lobster trap as a display table can provide a great look and so can a ships model under glass. You can add your own individual style to the interior design style by selecting knick knacks which mirror your personality. If you don’t have a lot of money, you could try shopping at the local flea markets and garage sales where you can come across captivating accessories for less money.

Decorating with sea themed items like ships wheels and anchors can add a professional style to your Nautical decorating theme. It’s imperative, though, that you have a vision of the kinds of pieces you need so you can stick to choosing just those that suit. Also, have in mind the sizes you need that will help compliment the room design. Being cognizant of proportion and size insures that you will get a great look in any room decor!
