No matter how big or small your budget is, you can have a plantation design in your basement with only a few alterations such as wallpapering and matching your wall art and pillows to bring some tropics to your room. Some things to pay attention to when changing your interior decoration include the wall paint, the lighting, decorative accessories, and the flooring and your sofa and chair. Window treatments can affect your plantation theme. There are lots of window treatments that can enhance this design style, particularly if you use coordinating fabrics, but you probably want to avoid heavy dark drapery. To get a great design in your basement consider having wooden plantation shutters or sheer drapes with a plain design. It's not necessary that you match your sofa, chair, and bookcase but the basement should have a variety of solid and rustic furniture. To really showcase the plantation style, try items with a dark stain. Accurate lighting is a must in any room and the basement is no exception. To compliment your plantation decor, you might want to consider the style of fixtures along with the type. The majority of basements can utilize recessed lighting as well as table lamps. While you are going for a plantation decorating style, try installing palm frond ceiling fans with tropical theme lamps but Remember to avoid anything that is too modern or contemporary. What's on your floor can add to the decorating scheme, but if it costs too much for new floors for your basement then work with your floors by covering them in area rugs that have a plantation style. If you do want to go with new floors, consider using wood or tile. A critical factor when decorating your basement with a plantation design theme is your wall coverings. For this style the the colors can make or break the look - consider using earthtones and medium yellow and cream on your walls or in your accessories. Try using a paint in a solid color on the walls, or if you want something different go with a tropical wall paper border. You don't have to get too fancy or spend a lot of money and if you are afraid of a bit of color, simply cover the walls in a neutral paint and and put the color into your flooring and accents. Decorative accessories are crucial to pulling your plantation theme together. You can drastically alter the look of your room by simply replacing the accessories! Concentrate on selecting wall art, pillows and knick knacks, in that match your plantation design style. Even these basic changes can make a big difference. Be sure to add in plenty of wooden bowls in conjunction with wooden boxes and you could even try some interesting knick knacks to add some punch to your basement. Other touches such as lots of plants can help setup your room with a picture perfect decorator look. A critical decorating area that we often forget about when redecorating is the wall space. Even the plainest walls can be made to look good with great wall art and decorative accessories. Try applying prints of palm trees to your basement walls to enhance the tropical feel of your plantation design theme. Putting together a fantastic plantation look in your basement can be as minor as just buying new decorative accessories or as involved as doing a total room remake. Either way, paying attention to detail and matching your decorative accessories and furniture will help you pull off a cool new plantation theme that you will be proud to claim you accomplished all by yourself! |
