Top 5 Decorating Trends

You may either be moving into a new home or want to refresh the look of where you live now - but how do you do it?  There are so many different directions one can go when decorating a home.

Below are some trends and helpful hints for 2010 and 2011 to get your look current and your creative juices flowing!

5.  Eclectic.  Many different pieces and styles together in one room can give your home some unique character.  Are you digging the beautiful, gray, upholstered chair that has a romantic feel?  Pair it up with a funky, green pillow to make it pop!  With different styles, patterns, and colors, the possibilities are endless and in turn, you will have an original one-of-a-kind room.  Stay away from "showroom look" and get creative!

4.  Glitz & Glam.  Metallics and anything that shines is in.  Your room will really come to life with some deep gun metal grays and coppers.  Don't be afraid to turn to glitz.  As long as it is done tastefully, it can pull together an area while giving it a chic touch.

3.  Go Green.  Being eco-friendly has become a popular trend in all industries over the last few years.  Why not make your room one with nature?  Use neutral colors, it will go a long way.  How about organic cotton curtains?  A wooden coffee table?  Give your room that warm, earthy feel.

2.   Modern.  Straight lines, bold and geometric patterns. and vibrant colors mixed with neutrals...it sounds like a match made in heaven!  Contemporary is very in and it can make your room feel very urban but fun and funky as well.

1.  Go for Comfort.  It sounds cliche', but ultimately, you want your room to feel comfortable.  No one enjoys walking into a cold room where they do not feel welcome.  Make sure your furniture is not stuffy, instead, go for items that are inviting.

No matter what your style is, if you are looking for furniture in North Carolina, check out Boulevard Bazaar, located in historic Southend in Charlotte!

Boulevard Bazaar: Furnish Your Home, Complete Your Life

When you walk into a room, it is important to feel warm and welcomed.  If you own a store, the mood should be inviting and enticing so customers continue to return to your place of business.  This  idea is equally as imperative for a home.  You yourself want to feel content and comfortable in your house and hope that guests and visitors feel the same as well.  One of the heaviest components to acquire this is having the right furniture.  Furniture is definitely a form of decorative art and can really set the mood depending on what you are trying to achieve.

Of course there are different types and styles of furniture out there and it all depends on how and what you are decorating.  Whether you are looking for something traditional, modern, romantic, exotic or maybe even eclectic, there is something for everyone.  There are the common essentials such as bedroom furniture, office furniture and living room furniture but there are also pieces of furniture used for storage or decoration.

Choosing the right furniture truly depends on the individual and their taste.  It also may be contingent on what you are trying to accomplish.  The way a room feels is heavily impacted by the type of furniture style you choose, the color and the mood.

Do you have an urban apartment in the city with exposed brick and really want to focus on straight lines and geometric shapes?  Contemporary furniture can really pull all of this together to provide you with a modern look.  A low to the ground and sleek black, leather couch may be a wonderful option for you.  Maybe you have rich colors and textures in your home and need a lush, velvet chaise lounge and fierce, mahogany coffee table to complete the room's appearance.  The possibilities are truly endless.
