Country Style Decoration Tip #1

When we think of country style home decoration, we may visualize a room full cluttered with small printed flowers. But this doesn't have to be so.

Here are a few tips to weave in country decoration to a modern looking house to keep it classic and simple looking.

The aim is to keep the place looking fresh and elegant with a touch of country warmth.

1) Use neutral and bright colours like white and light beige on walls and bigger furniture items. If you wish to play with other colours, keep to light pale shades like pale yellow and light apple green.

2) Add some jazz to the other furniture or draperies by adding a touch of bright and strong colours like red, pink or blue. Be careful not to overdo it and keep the strong colours to a minimum.


3) If strong bold colours are what you really love and you must absolutely have them on your walls, keep the furniture clean like having them all in white.


4) To achieve the worn effect, the translucent glaze can be added to the freshly painted wall.

5) To fully embrace the country feel, throw open the window or draw the curtains to allow sunshine and some breeze into the home!
