Theme Design: Decorating ideas in White!

The color White brightens up any space, it clean, fresh and has oodles of elegance. It is perfect way to perk up decor for airy summer. Beach cottage decor also has lots of shades of white. White color is also perfect for smaller spaces, it created an illusion of bigger dimension and there is something so dramatic about it.

If you want to add just a hint of color, adding pastel is a good option. If you begin with an all white, you could play with different accent colors to keep it updated and fun. It is perfect for rented spaces too. No long term commitment of wall paper and curtains!

Choose different shades of White to create a complex drama. This is a gorgeous bedroom with plush detailing. Perfect decor for modern sophistication. Love!


Just a little of black is perfect to add dimension to an otherwise white decor. Black gives it a depth and breaks the monotony. The zebra print rug is stunning, and balances the colors perfectly!


A comfortable, peaceful corner to relax. All white and cream with lots of natural light makes this almost zen. Easy to swap cushions and rug to refresh the decor anytime. Reading nook idea :)


Whole lot of white, but the interesting lines of furniture makes this living room far from boring. A fresh approach to modern decorating, white linen is actually an easy maintenance too!


Adding hints of soft color, gold here, can elevate the whole decor. The easy elegance is unmistakable, specially like the canopy on vaulted ceiling. Perfect for a princess, so dramatic!


Love this kitchen! The focus is perfectly placed on the blue gas range. Interesting open shelves and white tiles back splash. Chrome pendant lights are an unusual addition. Fabulous!


Traditionally Beach decor uses lots of white. This simple shabby chic bathroom is so charming in its rustic details. Lots of interesting details, but seamlessly unified in White.

Theme Inspiration: 10 Hallway decorating ideas!

The hallway is a part of home that should not be ignored. There should be no reason why it could not be stylish and functional at the same time! An entryway makes the first impact and a lovely welcoming decor would take the style quotient up a few notch. Including a console table or dresser, art, and mirror with good lighting will do the trick perfectly!

Do check out a previous post on 15 ways to decorate hallway here.

Good tip for narrow hallway, do not over crowd, take it vertically up. A narrow console table with beautiful assortment of art and lots of wood texture. Interesting and so crisp!


Love the low bench with the focus clearly on the wall display. Sometimes pictures tell so much about the family, conversation starter and personal touch to the decor. Sweet!


A rustic mix of furniture and gorgeous vintage prints! This is vintage chic. The chest is absolutely perfect to catch all your keys, bag, lists etc. Comfortable and clutter free.


Shades of gray look absolutely amazing in combination with white and black! The simple color scheme is easy on the eyes and lets the print art get all the attention. Like the duo design wall too.


A cozy lived in feel to the hallway. Mix of family pictures and art, cheerful bright cushions in floral and warm distressed wood seating. Love the wooden alphabets. Fabulous!


Less is more, few basic furniture and some decorative items. What I love here is the unusual way of stacking the books. Neutral colors widen the space. Can't go wrong with mid-century accent!


If your hallway opens to the main door directly, place mirrors to widen the space and make the most of the natural light. The uncluttered look with lush plant is so inviting. Love the woods!


A narrow space can have perky personality too! This is so unusual and absolutely beautiful. The shades of blue look fantastic on white. Ornate neoclassical crossed with modern maybe..


This is just sweet quirkiness! A not to subtle 'bunny' theme going on here. This is so perfect for Easter!! Did you spy the almost hidden bunny on the wainscot? Cuteness overload! :-)


What an amazing diy! A sure way to impress your guests, just as they walk in. A decoupaged chest and magazine file. Swoon! You could choose your own clip art and check link for instruction!

Theme Design : Romantic Red!!

The color Red is so full of energy and cheery, including it in your home decoration color palette should not be too difficult. The color could be a bold bright, or a more soothing version of pastel and pinks. The fact that it looks amazing in combination with colors like white, black, green, yellow et al should be a good incentive to experiment with this popping color.

The decor ideas included here, are based mostly on bold red, and it would help you get an idea about using it as a focal color, specially when combining with neutrals like white, beige, and against wooden textures. This color has so much potential to bring energy and sophistication to any style of decoration.

A large red pendant style light looks amazing! Red as accent color is a great choice, specially with neutrals and pastel colors. The combination of pink, purple and red is lovely!


The unusual feature wall with a rug looks absolutely exotic! Pick a color shade for the wall from your chosen rug,this way it is more put together and adds neat sophistication.


Red adds the perfect dose of drama to an all white room. Lovely red and white with a little of beige. The vertical striped wall trick adds height, while white reflects making it more spacious!


Give an old bench, or feature furniture a perk up! Paint is red, and it will no longer be be in the background. It would look absolutely charming against exposed wood.


Simple elegance. Burgundy and red brings a distinct richness to this bedroom. Easy tip, keep the curtain and bedspread in matching schemes, in different sets for the year round!


Love the crazy scheme of stripes, floral and bold red. Absolutely unique and oh so chic! This is not for the conformists, a distinct individual style. I can't gush enough over it :-)


Red has a way of brightening up any corner, its festive and has been celebrated as a color of love! Bring out mercury votive in red for a special dinner or just as everyday glamor.


Brighten up a dinner table with these gorgeous dinnerware in red, black and white! Another good way to include a little of red, if you are just experimenting. Perfect for Christmas!
