When we first purchased our home I went a little crazy when it came to the home decor. I was constantly picking up magazines to see what was on trend and I found myself bookmarking a slew of home decor blogs because in my head I wanted my home to have a certain look. What I didn’t realize was that I should have just let my ideas marinate so that I could stay true to myself because my indecisions resulted in my husband and I painting our living room and kitchen more than once. Now that we have neutral colors throughout our entire home I’m completely focused on wall accents and other decor pieces that bring life to our walls.
When it comes to home decor you don’t want your home to be a cookie cutter image of what’s seen in the magazine. This is why I turn to online sites liked Minted.com to purchase amazing custom pieces of art made by independent artist from over 40 different countries. If you’re ordering wall art there are several sizes to choose from. You can also choose a frame that fits the style of your home or you can just order the print and fame it yourself.
When I saw this “Unique Fishy” print on Minted.com I knew I had to have it. With Social media pushing certain looks and styles we often times lose focus of what it means to be ourselves. The “Be Unique” message printed with real gold foil on the print really spoke to me, as a blogger and entrepreneur it’s important to remember that the only way to really succeed is to be your authentic self. I decided to display this photo on our entry way buffet top as the gold foil ties in with our gold holiday decor.
If wall art isn’t your thing Minted.com also features stationary and items other items for around the home like pillows, curtains and lamp shades. Minted.com is also a great place to shop for unique gift ideas. This way you never have to worry about showing up with the same gift as someone else.
