Because windows have the ability to change the appearance of an entire room in the house, it is critical to pay close attention to them when decorating. If you don’t like curtains and prefer light to flow freely into your home, “empty” windows can be dull and uninteresting. However, your windows and the entire space will gain freshness and get rid of monotony with the help of these 6 decorative solutions that we will give below. Make sure you check the list to find out more!
Blinds
Curtains and draperies make it much easier to beautify your windows. Draperies have a significant impact on the appearance of windows and the space as a whole. If, however, you wish to enhance your windows in this way, keep the following rules in mind: Choose drapes of stunning color and ornamentation if your curtain is one color and lacks patterns and features, and vice versa. Draperies, as well as curtains, can be styled with a variety of bows and hairpins created specifically for this purpose. If you add thick drapes next to the curtain, your windows, as well as the entire living area, will look much more opulent.
On the other hand, as the majority of people will most likely use curtains as their primary window décor, you can use them for much more! For example, instead of going for a plain and uninteresting style, you can experiment with a few different types, such as functional blinds to entirely transform the appearance of your windows! Not only will they decorate your home, but they will come in handy in so many ways due to their exceptional functionality!
Use plants
If you don’t want curtains on your windows but prefer blinds, an unusual houseplant is a terrific way to add interest. Moreover, as you will be lit by the light, the houseplants that yearn for sunlight will be as well. Nevertheless, choose a plant based on your preferences. For example, you can mix them according to size, color, or purpose to match the room’s interior and thus improve the room’s appearance.
Give it a rustic sense
Wooden window frames exude elegance and sophistication and are an awesome idea for a rustic home décor vibe. Namely, cedarwood window frames are a terrific way to add old-world elegance to your home. On the other hand, light wood frames, such as pinewood, can be used to achieve a Scandinavian aesthetic. You may also add this motif by including wooden floors in your decor. Finally, remember to add some cactus plants as well!
String lights
String lights can make our windows simply enchanting. It’s intriguing to observe how stringing together makes these amazing little lighting decorations that bring an interesting vibe to the decor! This cheerful accent will instantly improve your design by framing your window. Therefore, make sure you decorate your windows with these beautiful gems, and your home will always look amazing!
Lanterns and candles
Besides string lights, it is also a great idea to include some other details that will illuminate your home! For instance, lanterns and candles can come in handy and also embellish your windows. This way, they will give your home a welcoming look and make you feel cozy and more comfortable at home. On top of that, they are very cheap, so this makes it one of the most cost-effective ideas to decorate your windows and give your home a warmer look. Thus, make sure that next time you go to a market you pick some nice candles and lanterns that can fit well on your window. Likewise, make sure you also choose scented candles, as these can make the feeling even better. Similarly, you can choose them in different colors to match your home interior!
Add a shelf
Did you know that you can use shelves to decorate your windows? If you have extra room under the window due to a broad wall or additional board, you can make it into a shelf for books, diaries, or decorations. Decorating that area with candles, scented sticks, or photo frames will also look great. If a window in one of your rooms is particularly low, you can use it and position a few pillows or stools beneath it to create a perfect spot to relax, read a book, or simply relax. This way, you’ll have a beautiful view while still using the window for its intended function. However, make sure the shelves don’t get in the way of cleaning the windows, and we prefer glass shelves, which will blend in perfectly with your windows.
These are simple but effective ways to make your windows, and, in turn, your home, a much nicer and more welcoming place!
