New Year is the time when we stop and reassess our position. We evaluate what is working, what is not working, and what change we would like to see going forward. The best place to apply this attitude and principles is in our home. This 2017 create a home that you love and will make your happy, so you can deal with whatever it is that 2017 has in store for you. Get started with the following resolutions.

2017 Decorating Goals

1. Take a Risk

Is there anything you have always secretly wished for or wanted to try? Maybe you have seen a design that your think was a little out of the box in a magazine or in someone else’s home. Then, why don’t you try it out in your own home? Or, maybe you can start with a few small things, such as having some wall art or patterned throw pillows or paint your walls in a bold color. Start now! Do something out from the ordinary or something that you have not done before! Breaking a routine is good for your soul and an invigorating change in your own home is often a good start! Two things can happen: either you may end up loving it or end up not loving it, but you will have a better understanding of your own personal tastes.

2. Go Minimal

What usually happens when we plan for a change is we buy, often forgetting that we already have too many stuff at home. Look around your home. Does your home look like a dumpsite? Is there anything that occupies much of your space? Check and perhaps you can minimize your décor or reduce the number of your chairs so your home will look more clean and orderly.

3. Search and Check Your Current Pieces

If changing for you means having new items, then sort out your items first. Decide which of them would you keep and not keep. This process will eliminate the unwanted items and you get to keep only those that you really need. If you still prefer to have new things, sell your current items first so you have money to buy new ones. If you want to have a new modern sofa with a reclining feature or pull back seat feature, sell the old one! Do the same process with the other Furniture pieces.

4. Reuse What You Have

Use what you already have. Maybe you have a trinket stored in you buffet that could be placed in your modern TV stand. Or, a vase kept for years on the shelf. Bring it out, put some fresh flowers, and place it on top of your modern buffet. You can switch accessories or rearrange your furniture for a different look. 

5. Go Against Popular Trends

You do not need to follow what is written in home Decorating magazines or follow a specific style or color. Follow your gut and choose the items that appeal to you. Following your gut will ultimately make your happier in your home. If you still are not sure of your own personal style, check your wardrobe. See the colors and patterns in the style of your clothes. 

6. Invest on a Single Modern Furniture this 2017

It is a common thing for us to fantasize about shopping for all the items we want for our home. However, the most interesting and beautiful items accumulate over time. For 2017, resolve to buy just one single piece. Choose a practical, well-crafted piece of modern furniture or an exquisite painting. Treating each individual item as investments instead of objects to fill your space will make you be more practical with your choice and happier in the end.

You can find all the items you need at modern furniture Los Angeles, where comfort, functionality, durability, and cost efficiency are combined.
