Boho home décor is currently enjoying a surge in popularity, but not everyone is familiar with this eclectic and unique interior design trend. So, what exactly is boho home décor? At its core, boho (short for bohemian) design is all about embracing freedom and breaking conventional design rules. This style encourages mixing and matching patterns and textures, pairing contrasting colors, and combining different materials such as wood and metal.

In essence, boho home décor is all about embracing creativity and expressing your unique personality through your home design choices. If you’re looking to decorate your home with a boho aesthetic, Amazon has a fantastic selection of boho home accessories that are both on-trend and affordable. Whether you’re searching for bold textiles, unique artwork, or quirky decor items, you’re sure to find something that speaks to your inner bohemian.

Understanding the roots of bohemian style is crucial before exploring the best boho home décor ideas. Originating in 19th-century France, this interior design school drew inspiration from the ‘bohemian’ art scene that prized creativity over financial gain. Embracing this spirit of rebellion against traditional design norms, boho décor encourages mixing and matching patterns, as well as embracing maximalist or minimalist choices. A blend of vintage and modern boho décor is possible by layering design choices, such as combining prints, patterns, and styles, to create a deeply personal, comfortable, and free-spirited space. To begin your boho home décor plan, here are some foundational building blocks to consider.

Just as French artists wanted to paint in the great outdoors, Boho home designs seek to include natural materials. As such, plants play a significant role in any bohemian space. Try adding a set of plants as tabletop décor, using a simple base like this set of three hand-molded ceramic pots. Or, lean hard into the boho décor ideas and fasten a hanging planter to the wall—as a bonus, this pair of wall-hanging faux pearl plants is maintenance-free. 

With plants incorporated into the design scheme, it’s important to pay close attention to other accent items. These should include natural material home décor like this woven rattan bread basket, one of many Amazon boho home accessories. Take the design theme to the wall with this set of three wicker and seagrass flat baskets made for hanging. Or, bring the natural material home décor front and center to the design concept with this hand-finished Java wood coffee table, measuring 42 inches in diameter, 18 inches in height and bringing the solidity of a tree into any room, thanks to its solid 66 lbs weight.

As mentioned earlier, natural materials are the foundation of boho design, and the color palette reflects this ethos. Earth tones and neutrals take center stage, complemented by pops of colors inspired by nature. Key colors to consider include whites, browns, greys, and beiges, which can be layered with patterns for added visual interest. For instance, this tawny-colored square poof, made from polyester and cotton, features a textured diamond pattern that adds depth and dimension to the decor. To bring the outdoors inside in the most boho-inspired way, incorporate accent colors found in nature, such as greens, yellows, reds, or blues. These hues will infuse your space with a natural, organic vibe that is quintessentially bohemian.

One of the hallmarks of boho design is the use of rich, textured layers to create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Adding these layers can be as simple as tossing a delightfully textured and tufted cotton white pillow onto a couch or accent chair paired with a soft, knitted throw blanket. However, these layers can also serve a practical purpose, such as anchoring a room with a hand-woven, 8×10 Jute area rug placed over a burnished hardwood floor. With this rug, the boho vibes are immediately infused into the space without requiring any extra effort. Whether your goal is comfort or functionality, incorporating textured fabrics and layers of coziness is a key element in achieving the boho home décor style.

Creating an eclectic mix of patterns, materials, and accent pieces is essential to achieving the boho chic style. For wall art, consider a pair of modern, carved wooden wall hangings, each measuring 34 square inches and featuring minimalist geometric designs. Add a curtain of whimsical LED twinkle lights for a cozy touch of warmth and brightness. Complete the look with a wood-and-metal flush-mounted chandelier, blending antique, contemporary, and traditional design elements with natural materials. This chandelier is the ultimate piece to round out your boho design aesthetic. With a mix of textures, patterns, and styles, your boho home décor will be full of character and charm.

Just as boho home décor can combine the ancient and modern in one piece, this design scheme is also about pairing modern and vintage pieces in the same space. This contrast of period pieces can happen in a wide variety of combinations. A great starting point is this solid-wood, three-legged round side table, with its sleek and contemporary design. This table provides the ideal base for traditional accent pieces, like this ivory-colored female form vase, which is a perfect boho home décor item due to its hearkening back to ancient Roman times.

To create a boho-inspired home, Amazon offers a variety of accessories that can help achieve the look. From natural materials to cozy layers and eclectic design elements, there are many ways to design a bohemian space. However, the key element of this design scheme is making the space feel deeply personal. One way to achieve this is by including special items like a hand-carved wooden Hamsa storage box that can house meaningful keepsakes. For a playful touch, try adding a statement piece like a screen-painted floor pillow pouf with decorative tassels, which adds a pop of boho accent colors and whimsy to any room.
