Even if your room is small you can achieve a traditional look in your parlor by changing simple aspects of the room like adding a wallpaper border and coordinating your photos and artwork to add some tradition. Don't be afraid to change things like your decorative items, wall paint, floor coverings, fixtures as well as your sofa and coffee table. Good lighting is key in most rooms and the parlor is no exception. To enhance your traditional design style, you might want to think about light fixtures in terms of both style and type. Many parlors can work with a table lamp along with decorative sconces. When you will be incorporating a traditional look, look into a brass hanging light or chandelier with brass or glass table lamps but Always pass up anything which is too modern or artsy. It's not critical to buy matching sofa, coffee table, and desk but the parlor should have lots of mahogany and upholstered furniture. To really enhance the traditional design theme, use furnishings with an inlaid pattern. A critical change to pay attention to when decorating your parlor with a traditional decor is your wall treatments. For this design theme the colors can really enhance the feel - think about utilizing creams and whites and blues and pale yellows in the room. Try using a wallpaper in traditional patterns on the walls, or if you want something different go with paint with a stencil border. It doesn't need to cost a lot and if you are afraid of a bit of color, simply cover the walls in a neutral color and add the color in your accents. Window treatments are important to your traditional design theme. There are plenty of window coverings that you can match up to this style, especially if you use coordinating fabrics, but you probably want to avoid modernistic window coverings. To acquire a great look in your parlor think about using silk drapes or decorative valance and drape set. Decorative accessories are key to pulling your traditional look together. You can dramatically alter the style of your room simply by replacing the accessories! Concentrate on obtaining photos, artwork and mantle clocks, in in colors that compliment your traditional design theme. You'll be amazed at how simple and inexpensive it is, and what a sizeable difference these changes make! Be certain to include plenty of porcelain and bronzes as well as antiques and you may even try a few new pieces with a traditional look to add some punch to your parlor. Additional decor such as sterling or crystal vases with flowers can help setup your room with a picture perfect designer appeal. Your flooring must coordinate with your overall room decoration, but if you can not purchase new flooring in your parlor then work with your floors by covering them in area rugs that have a traditional style. On the other hand, if you can spring for new floors, try hardwood floors or plush wall to wall carpet. An important area that is frequently ignored when decorating your room is the wall space. Even the plainest walls can be smashing through great wall art and decorative accessories. Try adding antique oil paintings in gilded frames or even antique platters or plates hung in decorative hangers to your parlor walls to really bring out the style of your traditional decor. Putting together a smart traditional look in your parlor can be as minor as just buying new decorative accessories or as involved as doing a total room remake. Either way, attention to the fine details and matching your decorative accessories and furniture will help you pull off a neat new traditional theme that will have your friends and neighbors asking you to redecorate their homes! |
