When it comes to interior design, it can be quite a task, even for the professional. Each home is different and each homeowner has their own sense of style. It is your job to portray their personality through the decor pieces you choose. Creating a Pinterest board can be helpful to get you started on the right foot, but as we said, each home is different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help, we&#8217;re sharing a few secrets for interior designers or anyone looking to make some changes to their home decor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"1-work-with-what-youve-got\">1. Work With What You&#8217;ve Got<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"1280\" src=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Siri_Roozen_@roozen.abode_002.jpeg\" alt=\"Home office decor\" class=\"wp-image-11627\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Siri_Roozen_@roozen.abode_002.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Siri_Roozen_@roozen.abode_002-700x933.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Siri_Roozen_@roozen.abode_002-768x1024.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We know you&#8217;ve probably heard this before and it seems like a basic rule, but we figured we would mention it anyway. What may seem like an eye-sore to one person, can be beautiful and creative to the next. Instead of trying to change things around completely and get rid of things, work with what you&#8217;ve got instead. Move things around to make it fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Essential Guide to Measuring Art For Framing\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6VW05Y3Zauc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"2-large-frames-give-the-space-life\">2.

If you have an empty wall, consider adding a large frame to add some depth to the space. Here at Frame It Easy, we can frame anything up to <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wood-frame-types\/\">42&#8243; x 42&#8243; in our wood style frames<\/a> and <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/frame-styles\">42&#8243; x 62&#8243; in our metal style frames<\/a>. This gives you a lot of room to work with. Consider framing large paintings, art, or murals for the space to add some character without taking up a ton of room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"3-add-a-pop-of-color\">3.

Whether that be with our <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/frame-styles\/ashford\">Ashford frame style<\/a> in Hot Pink or adding some blue decorative pillows to the couch.

Consider adding an accent wall with a dark blue or even a midnight black. Add some fun art pieces to the wall to tie it all together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"5-use-the-natural-light-to-your-advantage\">5.

If privacy is not an issue, skip the window treatments to allow natural light into your space.
