How to Design a Space with Intention

Are you looking forward to redecorating your home? Keep these tips in mind when for designing your space with intention.

Frame Souvenirs in a Shadowbox

Small trinkets and other souvenirs can get lost easily, but make great decorations for personalizing a space. Building a shadowbox for separate vacations can be a great way to remember your trips, and add intention to your home decor.

Use Your Green Thumb to Decorate

There are plenty of indoor plants that require little maintenance, like air plants or succulents. Placing an air plant in a cute jar hanging from a hook (or even as a little kitchen magnet) can add personality to your home. Succulents, another easy-to-care-for plant, are sometimes otherworldly. Topsie Debbies, a String of Pearls, or Dolphin plants make unique succulent buddies.

Design a Room Around a Special Piece of Furniture

A special and unique piece of furniture can add character to your home. Maybe it's a piece you bought on vacation or a lovely family heirloom. Designing a room around a specific piece adds cohesiveness to the space while maintaining individuality in your home.

Use Art and Photos as Decor

Like t-shirts or trinkets, you can buy art while on vacation. Hunt around a street fair for local art you can hang in your home! These pieces will be unique to your home, and allow you to remember your vacation for years to come. As an alternative, just paint your own! Paint your favorite scene from a movie, a park you love, or even a self-portrait!

The Bottom Line

No matter what, make sure you use love and care when decorating your home. It's meant to be a unique living space, curated to your personal style and taste. Above all, have fun when decorating! You never know what kind of memories might be made when doing the simplest activities. If you’d like more help designing your space with intention, we’d love to hear from you!
