Creating environments and building amazing spaces is not an easy task. Facing an empty room is synonymous with facing a blank canvas for a painter or an empty plate for a chef.

If you are thinking of decorating a room in your house, the living room or a bedroom, keep in mind the advice that we are going to give you. This way you will know  where to start without getting in doubt or uncertainty.

Thanks to the great portal that is the Internet, we are very used to seeing wonderful interior spaces or decorations. But at the moment of truth, it is difficult for us to carry out those ideas to our home in particular.

It is true that many of the ideas they propose are utopian or fanciful. Many items that we find in specialized decoration magazines are unique objects and unfortunately have high prices. However, all is not lost. Pay attention to the first steps you must follow to start decorating a room.

First steps before decorating a room

Style

First of all, you have to know what style you will follow, the trend and what you want to convey. It is not the same to choose a rustic, modern or minimalist style.

The trends are very marked although it is always a good idea to follow our instincts and let ourselves go. If you are a person with a lot of personality and imagination, you can create your own style.

Know the strengths

We must be able to find the strength of each room that we want to decorate. Either the location of the door or the large windows. Always keep in mind the hours of daylight and how the sun shines in order to better locate the furniture.

Throw away what you are not going to use

We have a bad habit of accumulating many things, so take advantage of the time to decorate or change a room to throw away what you do not want to use anymore.

Currently, there are applications and many methods to donate or sell the objects that we no longer want. This is a good idea to finance part of the remodel.

Do not buy compulsively

It is true that decoration stores are very beautiful and encourage buying. Be careful and make a list of the furniture and items you need and do not get off that list. You may end up with more things than you need.

Beware of fashions

Fashions are fleeting, try not to succumb to them and buy everything they want to sell us. Surely you have seen many flamingos, pineapples, birds or donuts.

Fruits are catching on and you may not find any sense in a summery décor in the winter months.

Think well the colors

If you decide to paint the walls of your room, consider the rest of the house. You can make the room the protagonist with a striking color, however, be careful with strong colors because they can tire you in the long run.

It has become fashionable to paint only one wall in a darker color to highlight the part that interests you the most.

If you decide to go for clean white walls, then play with the colors of the curtains or the duvet cover on the bed.

Aspects to consider

Before decorating it is convenient that you put all your ideas on paper, to have them all organized. Cut out the options you liked the most to keep them in mind at all times.

• Give prominence to lighting, it is one of the key pieces to generate cozy spaces and places.

• Do not be afraid to combine different colors, dare and have fun.
• Ask yourself if you need to hire a designer.
• Give prominence to the windows, you can dress them with colored curtains that combine with the rest of the room.

Before launching yourself to decorate a room, think carefully about what you need, what you want and how you are going to get it.

We give you these tips so that you can achieve it in an effective and fun way.
