Consider the following tips when you are ready to decorate and you will transform your home into adorable and affordable shabby chic in no time.

Colors

When choosing colors, you cannot go wrong when deciding on pastels. The use of pastel colors in combination with off-whites and whites is a common technique used in shabby chic decorating. Patterned wallpapers and painted walls are also a great way to give your home a country cottage feel.

Furniture

The use of solid wood furniture is very common in shabby chic décor. Furniture pieces that are painted can also complement a room very well. It is important to add pieces of furniture that are simple and not as decorative as pieces of furniture that may be used in a more formal design.

Antiques can be used as great accents in your décor theme, and some of the most popular antiques used in shabby and chic décor are:

  • Kitchen queens
  • Pie safes
  • Jelly cupboards

Plant stands are other accessories that can add an element of elegance to your home. A few plant stands, placed strategically around your home is absolutely gorgeous when holding pots overflowing with greenery.

Fabrics

Floral patterns, checks and stripes are some of the best fabrics for this type of home décor. By using these types of fabrics, you will be able to put together this distinct look that a unique and charming style.

Flooring

One aspect of interior design that is commonly overlooked is the flooring. Some of the most trendy flooring styles associated with shabby chic are ceramic tile and natural wood. However, checkered or diamond designs and painted designs can also work well with this type of interior design.

If you decide that you want to paint the floors in your home with a design of your own choosing, be sure a coat of varnish is added to the floor. This will help to protect the color and add a finish to the floor.

Get Creative

Although these are some tips to help get your creative juices flowing, it is important that you use your creative license to experiment and mix and match colors, fabrics, accents and furniture.

Keep in mind, with shabby chic, there are no rules, just guidelines you can use to get the direction you are looking for. This means you should not be afraid to be creative. Of course, you should be sure to add the element of fun during the design process.

Many times, everything that you need to create your unique shabby chic home decor may already be in your home. Forgotten pieces you have stored away or tucked away in the garage may be your best option to achieve this type of style.
