7 Ways to Refresh Your Home with Bright And Bold Accents

You need to add color to your home to make it stand out. Here are 7 Ways to Refresh Your Home with Bright And Bold Accents

I am getting ready to refresh my home and I just need something extra, like some more color, something bold and possibly global too. Budget and quality are important. So after a bit of searching, I found some items I already had stored away and some new.

1: Add a colorful rug to a dining room space.

Here is my dining space I have a sisal rug, that I love. It’s an open space where you can see the living space as well. I really need some color to make this space pop more. I plan on putting my home on the market this year, so this should help! I added some colorful runners with little Moroccan style.

2: Break up an open space with a colorful runner

The dining room space and living room are all together so to break it up and it give it some division. I added a bold color runner

3: Give your hallway floors some color by adding a colorful runner.

For the upstairs the wood floors needed some color I added another blue runner. (Ford Blue Area Rug by Wayfair) It’s amazing how a small change can make such a difference.

4: Add pillows and throw with unique designs to your bed

For one of the guest bedrooms, I have Catelynn Upholstered Bed with the nail-head trim is the highlight of the bedroom. To keep the blue theme going on I added a pillow and a throw. I added crisp white sheets which made all the difference for a bed to look refreshed!

5: Colorful upholstered furniture pieces make a great accent to any bed.

In my bedroom, there was too much white so I added a blue velvet upholstered bench in front of the bed.

6 Create a colorful headboard

In my daughter’s bedroom, she needed something unique, so we made a headboard from an old canvas and covered them with a piece of bright and bold fabric. See the tutorial here.

7: For wall space add bright artwork or colorful photos.

I created a colorful artwork with some photos of Charleston South Carolina.

I sent out the photographs to a company that created a metal artwork ready to be hung on the wall. Here is a post.

Maria I cannot believe you are going to sell this gorgeous home. If only I was closer I’d buy it. Your ideas are all spot on. There is nothing more relaxing then blues for the summertime and crisp whites to add a touch of glamour.

Your home already looks beautiful. But, it’s always nice to refresh things from time to time. I like the muted blue rug. The design and color are not overwhelming, and the rug would fit beautifully with your neutral decor. The box and the bud vase are charming, too.
