Mix and Match Old and New Home Decor

When it Comes to Decorating with Style, the Only Rule in Home Decor is There are No Rules

Transitional decorating pairs unlikely pieces, like a faux leather sofa with appliquéd pillows to give a room a fresh, eclectic look. Our best advice: Take time to tinker. Add a completely different piece. Move things around. Infuse some unexpected color. In the end, you end up with a joyful room full of the things you love.

Balancing Act

Blend vintage accents with modern furniture to get the best of both worlds. Incorporating similar colors in walls, blankets and pillows pulls a room together and creates a smooth transition between old and new. From folk artwork figurines and decorative birdcages to unique coffee tables and sleek accents, it all makes for a dynamic mix in home decor that is uniquely yours.

Power of Light

Mixing old and new builds depth and texture. Adding the right decorative lighting like a scroll metal candle sconce or a modern lamp has the power to transform a space from ordinary to extraordinary. When the different elements come together they create a room that feels just right.

Contemporary Rugs

Add Warmth

One of the easiest additions to define a space or add warmth, is contemporary rugs. Keep rugs in place with the help of rug pads. To keep the space interesting, add more than one rug.  The style can be similar or completely different, as long as the colors are in sync with each other and the rest of the room.
