Your Home Decor Shows a Peek Into Your Personality

Whether intentional or not, our choices for home decorating give people a peek into our personality. Are you a regimented person who likes everything in place? Chances are this personality characteristic will be obvious in your home decor. Most likely you will select paint colors that are neutral and your furniture will be practical rather than lavish. The next time you go to someone’s home, try looking for their personality traits in their home decor. By looking at other homes you may get some good ideas how your traits blossom in your home decor.

Before getting too deep into your decorating project, think about what sort of image you would like to project. Think about your likes and dislikes to create a decorating plan that will bring you pleasure and satisfaction upon completion. Think about what it is you are trying to accomplish; do you simply dislike the color of the room or do you dislike everything about the room including window treatments and furniture. Once you clearly understand what you want to do, get started and create your haven.

The simplest home decor project with the most immediate impact is painting a room a different color. Color has an intense effect on mood. If you find that every time you walk into a room you become instantly annoyed, think about the color of the room. If it is painted a color you dislike, get a gallon or two of paint and re-do it in a color you enjoy. You will find that your mood no longer goes sour when you enter the room. Already, a glimpse into your personality has emerged telling us two things about you; 1- You dislike a certain color and 2- you are a take charge sort of person that does not tolerate annoyances.

Our home decor puts our taste and sense of style on display. If we enjoy art, the sort of art we hang on our walls will certainly reflect what we like. If we enjoy techno-toys most likely we will have gadgets in the kitchen and throughout other rooms of the home. Even our bathroom says something about us. Is your shower curtain plain or whimsical; is your bathroom a cluttered mess or tidy at all times? Do you make sure the towels all match the wall color or do you just hang up the first towel you come across in the cabinet? A bit of our personality is reflected in the way we decorate and maintain our home’s decor.

Even our rugs have something to say about personality traits. A person who enjoys vibrant, electric colors is not likely to have a plain brown rug on their floor. They are very likely to have rugs in every color of the rainbow under foot. Their rugs probably will be all sizes and shapes and include patterns and designs. More traditional, neutral colored rugs are the favorites of those personalities that desire to “blend in” and conform. A luxurious wool carpet cannot be beat for sheer comfort to the bare foot and beauty to the eye, but a highly practical personality may opt for synthetic since it is less expensive. Beautiful rugs scattered throughout the home reflect attention to detail and good taste.

Look around your home and try to decide what your home decor says about you!
