Submission + - 5 REASONS WHY HOME ACCESSORIES ARE IMPORTANT (lovelucite.com)
An anonymous reader writes: When I talk about home accessories it's not limited to just pillows. We are talking about lamps, rugs, curtains, wall decor, picture frames, books, vases, flowers, etc.-- you name it (Shirley Caesar voice)! These things add layers to a room, and essentially complete and pull your living space together! Below I have compiled 5 reasons why home accessories is important in any home.
1. Take Your Space Zero to 100 (real quick):
It's amazing how "quickly" accessories take your space to another level. Take the beige tufted sofa and emerald green seated below. The construction of these two pieces is extraordinary. But in a room with black and white stripes on the wall, it's weakkkkk! But when you add pillows, a nice rug, wall decor, lamps, and coffee table accessories--IT'S LIT! The room is immediately elevated to another level...REAL QUICK! Once you start to accessorize, you ultimately become the stylist of a room and the sky is the limit. But pump your breaks because "over-accessorizing" is not a good look either but we will discuss this on a later topic.
2. Adds Personality:
Your home should be a direct reflection of WHO YOU ARE! Therefore, the accessory is a huge part of displaying YOUR personality and STYLE. Just like an outfit, adding a funky boot or nice big black brimmed hat instantly adds personality and character to your look. You should do the same with your room. Of course, your furniture selections says a lot about yourself, but your accessories bring it home! A nice funky rug or a gallery wall of your favourite photos and things, adds interest to your room, and displays who you are!

3. Introduces Color:
If you are a renter, you may experience an issue with bringing colour into your space (i.e.- NO PAINTING). However, with some great colourful and vibrant accessories who needs paint. Accessories are a great way to introduce your space to colour! For example, in the picture below: adding pink pillows with green/yellow banana leaf pillows, with pink tables immediately inject colour into this black and white palette.
4. Conversation Starter:
Accessories are great conversation starters. It never fails when I wear my Zara statement necklace, 9 times out of 10 someone spark up a conversation to compliment me on the necklace. Same thing with my home! Recently, I purchased leopard pillows this Winter and these seem to get everyone's attention when they walk in my living room.
5. Save Time and Coins:
When it comes to the decision making for accessories; it's a lot easier and tends to be less costly. Compared to furniture selections in which it may take a while and more expensive. With furniture there is a list of questions you have to ask yourself: "Is this the right size"? "do I like the feel"? Can I see this being in my home long-term"? "Is the price right"? The list can go on and on. But when selecting accessories the decision process isn't time-consuming at all. It's kind of like pick what you like and go!
