Add Personalized Artwork

Want to dress up the walls of your home but don’t know where to begin? Start with personalized photos! Whether you choose to display these pictures inside of frames, on canvas, or with SwitchArt, art.com is the place to shop. I absolutely adore the large canvas prints that hang in my home. The vibrant colors and quality design add such a personalized touch to my decor. Not to mention, I can display them in a gallery wall, on my shelves, or all by themselves. So many possibilities. If you don’t have photos you wish to display in your home, art.com also offers incredible pieces of art ranging from landscape photos to abstract art.

 

Update Your Bedding

Switching your bedding is a simple way to give any bedroom an instant face lift. When decorating my children’s rooms, The Land of Nod is my favorite place to shop. As you can see, this Orange Little Prints Quilt paired with their Little Prints Orange Triangle Sheet Set give such a fun and colorful touch to my son’s room. Best of all, these colors and patterns are something he can enjoy for years to come. Be sure to visit Land of Nod for other stylish bedding, furniture, lighting, and decor options.

 

Change Your Light Fixtures

I really love how a light fixture update can change the whole look of a room. I need to update the lights in my upstairs area.
