Everyone has something special they have bought for their home something that makes them smile or means something to that person,whether it be a piece of art work a rug or something as small as a doorknob the items in a persons home should reflect that persons personality,quirkiness and who they are.
A persons home is their castle and the place for expression.
There are no rules when it comes to home decor it's a blank canvas of experimentation.
So if you want that lightshade red and orange- crack on if you want that hallway carpet black with purple flecks- rock on if the colour your edging toward is slate blue for that fireplace wall -go do it .
If your home reflects you then it's as it should be - perfect.
