Shopping Tips for Colorful and Unique Accent Furniture

Do you want to add color to your home’s interior? Are you afraid of ruining your nice and neutral decorating scheme with colors that will not suit you? You need not  be afraid. Looking for colorful and unique accent furniture does not have to be so intimidating. Here are some interior decorating tips to help you get started on adding color and life to your home décor.

Complement your current interior decorating style

When adding pops of color to your current interior décor,  pick items that will complement both your style and your color scheme. An Art Deco lamp, for example, will look rather funny when you put it next to a piece of Victorian furniture. This does not exactly mean that you cannot mix and match your styles; just make sure that they have at least some kind of commonality.

Add an interesting pop of red to your living space with the Handmade Blown Glass Melon Bowl with Granite Beige and Gray Finish by Ambiente. This elegant glass piece is handcrafted, wholly hand-blown and hand-painted with ancient Spanish techniques and Italian traditions,  and should be a great statement piece in your space.

Balance pops of color with interesting, neutral accessories

Do you want your chosen accent color to stand out? If yes, group a bright colored piece along with a couple of neutral ones that come with interesting patterns or textures. Or, you can just pick anything that will not stand out as much. This way, the focus will be on your pop of color.

The Russet Whimsical Tea Pots by Howard Elliott comes with interesting shapes and textures that should look great next to colorful home accents. This is a set of three ceramic teapots that comes with a rich russet brown glaze. Pair one of them with a brightly-colored bowl, vase or something that you can put behind it to create lots of contrast.

Start out small and slowly build your color scheme

To avoid color shock, start with small things. From here, you can slowly add a little more color here and another one there, and see how it like before you bring in another color. If you do not like it, you can easily change it up. Otherwise, you can continue adding more pieces one at time. Plus, it would be expensive to go all out and buy all new décor pieces for your home.

The Bright Red Lacquer with Gold Accents Ceramic Vases – Set of 3 by Howard Elliott is bold enough without being too loud amongst a mostly-neutral color tones. Available in a set of three, they will look great for homes with a traditional style design. To further tone them down, fill every vase with greenery and put them together in the entryway near a door.

Remember and consider these interior decorating tips when you are out shopping for colorful home accents. If you do, you just might overcome your fear of incorporating color in your home.
