Whether you have a design plan or not you can craft a tropical look in your basement with a few changes such as wallpapering and matching your wall art and pillows to add some tropics. Some accessories to consider when redecorating include floor coverings, fixtures, decorative items and wall color as well as your sofa and chair. It's not critical that you match your sofa, chair, and bookcase but the basement should have plenty of light and breezy pieces. To really pick up on the tropical style, use furnishings with either painted or stained details. A critical task to ponder when decorating your basement with a tropical design style is your wall color. For this decorating style the colors can really enhance the feel - you should consider adding earthones and oranges, pinks and blues either as paint or wallpaper. Try using a paint or murals on the walls, or try tropical themed wallpaper and borders. It doesn't need to cost a lot and if you don't want color on the walls, just cover the walls in a neutral paint and add the color in your accents. What's on your floor can enhance the decor, but if new floors aren't in the budget for your basement then you can cover your current floors by using small rugs with a tropical decor. If new floors are in your budget, try tile floors or hardwood. Accessories are critical to pulling your tropical style together. You can totally alter the appearance of your room merely by replacing the accessories! Concentrate on purchasing wall art, pillows and knick knacks, in colors and patterns that match your tropical design style. You'll be pleased at how simple and inexpensive it is, and what a big difference these changes make! Be sure to add in lots of lots of green plants as well as wooden bowls of fruit and you should even try a few sea shells and other knick knacks with a tropical theme or feel to really give a great look to your basement. Further items such as vintage souvenirs and linens from Florida or other tropical places can help setup your room with a picture perfect decorator look. How you dress your windows are important to your tropical design. To put together a great look in your basement try using tropical themed prints on curtains or simple blinds or valances. There are multiple window treatments that you can match up to this style, particularly if you match other fabrics or colors in the room, but you want to avoid formal drapery. Lighting is important in most rooms and the basement is no exception. To go with your tropical look, you ought to keep in mind the style of light fixtures along with the type. While you are going for a tropical look, look into table lamps shaped like palm trees with a celing fan with palm leaf blades but try to stay away from anything that is stark or contemporary. Most basements can use recessed lighting combined with table lamps. One aspect that we often forget about when redecorating is the wall space. You can make even the plainest walls look great with great wall art and decorative accessories. Try adding a tropical mural, vintage vacation posters framed or prints of palm trees and sandy beaches to your basement walls to really bring out the steamy appeal of your tropical theme. Adding a rewarding tropical look in your basement can be as easy or hard as you want it to be. Either way, working on the details and making sure to match your decorative accessories and furniture will help you coordinate a decorative new tropical theme that you'll love to show off to your friends! |
