Hey friend!

Does your home feel a bit boring and generic? Are you tired of living in the all white, gray, and beige that was trending for so long on Instagram? Are you ready to add a little personality and character to your home, but you don't exactly know where to start?

In today's episode I'm sharing 5 ways to add a bit of personality and character to your home, that won't have you taking out a second mortgage, knocking out walls or changing every paint color on your walls!

1. Add pattern: swapping out solid colored items (curtains, pillows, area rugs, throw blankets) for something with pattern can instantly add personality where the solid was lacking.
Scared of pattern mixing? Try combining one geometric pattern and one fluid pattern (like a floral). Keep a common color between the two and you're set!

2. Add color: this may seem like an easy fix, but it's even easier when you think of adding color in small ways (pillows, artwork, curtains, books, etc). Painting small pieces of furniture (or big ones) can instantly change the look of your room without the commitment of painting your walls.

3. Add whimsical art: swap out big box store art (canvas, triptychs, farmhouse word art) for pieces that are a bit out of the box. When those pieces are directly connected to a passion, a hobby, a family story - you are instantly creating a meaningful touch with your decorating. Examples include: a gallery wall of vintage tennis rackets, a collection of busts, glass jars with baseballs inside. My favorite places to source art that has more personality than art found at box stores are: vintage and antique markets, flea markets, thrift stores, garage sales, Etsy.

4. Use common objects as decor: if you apply the rule 'anything that is out and visible is art' to your decorating, you can begin to see how normal everyday items can be elevated. Take for example a simple bathroom garbage can. Use an urn, a ceramic plant pot - anything other than a plastic garbage bin and you instantly elevate the space.

5. Incorporate vintage & antique items: mixing old & new is one of the most beautiful ways you can decorate a home. It instantly looks like it is oozing with personality, character and charm. Why? Those vintage pieces have lived another life and often come a little worn. How do you mix and match well? Try choosing a ratio to stick to - 1/3 vintage pieces to 2/3 new. This sets the parameters for how much of a good thing you decorate your home with.

BONUS: have fun! Experiment! Play! There are no rules that say you have to decorate your home once and live with it for 50 years. If it feels tired and boring to you now...shake it up a bit by using one or more of these 5 tips.
