Every festive season, most of us put a wardrobe upgrade right at the top of our to-do lists! The motive? Creating a lasting impression! But there’s one other thing that needs a revamp too – and that’s your living space.

Each room & corner should reflect your cheery mood! Regardless of whether you’re inviting people over or not, your house needs to be decked for the season. Apart from thoroughly impressing your guests, it’ll be a mood-lifting experience and add exuberance to your humble abode. 

Wondering where to get started? Here are 5 themes to pretty-up your home. Take a look! 

1. Glamorous Accents

Decor that looks like it’s right out of the Silver Screen? Yes, please! Make all your Bollywood or Hollywood dreams come true with pieces that are showbiz-worthy. 

Refrain from overdoing the bling and look towards classy, sleek designs instead! Adding a glamorous touch to your living space extends far beyond just sparkle & shimmer, and includes deeper shades like jewel tones, or classics like black & white. 

Everything from rose gold tints to ruby red hues will be your best friend. Details like fringes, fur, etc. also help in achieving that perfect luxe festive look, so be sure to give them a shot. Focus on the lighting, by incorporating luxurious lamps into your decor. If you’re feeling ‘extra’, introduce sequins to cushion covers or table runners.

2. Floral Paradise

There’s nothing else that says ‘fresh’, ‘festive’, and ‘fabulous’ all at once quite like florals – and you would agree. 

Whether they’re in your vase or on your wall, the charming effect they have is unparalleled in any form. This is why, when the time for celebrations comes around, a floral theme is usually everyone’s go-to. 

Deck the doors with floral hangings in vibrant hues like orange, hot pink, etc. and your tables with flowery jars. Your rugs can be flower-patterned too, creating the perfect contrast with the rest of the decor. If you do wish to include real blooms, nothing better than urlis to place them during the celebratory season. Let this board aid you in finding your new floral favourites!

3. Old-World Charm

A lot of us naturally gravitate towards things that appear a little rustic around the edges yet continue to remain alluring. It can be a piece of architecture from a time we’re unfamiliar with, or a family heirloom that has aged to some degree in spite of being well-preserved. 

The festive season can nudge us into looking at the back of our closets for time-honoured pieces. But if there’s nothing you own that seems to reflect the quaint beauty & intricacy of something ‘traditional’, you can simply shop for pieces that are designed to look that way. 

Find things with regal influences that speak of a bygone era. Handcrafted decor with materials like wood, brass, etc. also exudes old-world charm. Set the table with jars, candles, and serveware that is anything but modern! Here’s a board that’ll help you nail the theme.

4. Pleasing Pastels

It’s no secret that pastels continue to remain all the rage, no matter the season. The awe-inspiring hues aren’t just a great addition to your closet but to your home too. 

No longer associated with being ‘feminine’, pastels are now for everyone! So, you won’t find yourself offending the likes of your S/O if you were to splash your rooms with these pleasing hues. The soft colours are enough to not just bring in cheer but also maintain relevance for the seasons to follow. Festivities or not, this is a palette worth exploring to the fullest. Besides, it’s great for those sought-after Instagram aesthetics too!

You can make your pastels festive by investing in the right pieces, such as powder-hued cushion covers, blushing bowls or serving trays or eclectic sculptures. Placed right, we promise these will make a lasting impression!

5. Artful Makeover

If you’re never one to shy away from uniquely designed pieces and vibrant palettes, turn your house into a masterpiece with colour and pattern. 

Sounds like a winning theme for you? Then ensure you plan your shades and designs appropriately. While contrasts are always a welcome sight, you don’t want to go overboard with them by introducing too many tones to just one room or space. Take the time to ponder over it, and then work your magic! You can also add sculptures that aren’t too over-the-top yet fit in perfectly with the decor, just to add another artsy touch! 

You won’t just be brightening up your home, but also your guests’ moods – we guarantee.
