When you’re buying a new home, whether it’s a house for sale in Belleair Beach, a condo in Brandon, or a golf course home in Odessa, decorating it can be a ton of fun… or it can be a huge chore.
So how do the experts find decorative inspiration?
How to Find Inspiration to Decorate Your New Home
Sure, everyone has a Pinterest board—and most of us could fill up a board with our own Pinterest fails, too. It’s a great place to start, but don’t forget to pull out pages from your favorite magazines, clippings from hotspots online, and other inspirational pictures.
When you’ve done that, start looking for themes. You’ll probably notice that many of the things you’ve chosen are similar in one ways, whether it’s color, pattern, or bold design.
Then cut down your collection. Ask yourself, “Could I really live with this in the long-term?” If not—or if you’re “iffy” about something—trash it.
Assign descriptors to everything that’s left, like:
- Classy
- Bold
- Elegant
- Chic
- Urban
Start grouping your pictures together by finding those you’ve described similarly, then start thinking about which rooms they’ll work best in.
