4 Unique Decor Ideas
We all want our home to show off some of our personality and there are so many things we can do to make that happen.
There is something for everyone and ideas to make our home decor be something really unique if we just look out there for it.
I thought I would share with you today 4 unique decor ideas you might like to incorporate into your home.
Reclaimed Items.
There is something wonderful about using reclaimed items in the home.
Be it something someone else has made out of reclaimed wood, or an item you have upcycled yourself.
This type of decor can be as cheap or expensive as your pocket allows. From items picked up on freecycle, which you work on yourself. To items found on Etsy or similar websites, that have been handmade by experts.
Play With Glass.
Companies such as The Glass Wearhouse, work with glass in a whole host of interesting ways, both for the home and trade.
They can help you bring all sorts of glass based items into your home, from unique shower doors and splashbacks. To item for your conservatory, fire glass and even mirrors.
The obscure range, in particular, offers some interesting ideas for the bathroom.
Experiment with Lighting.
The way light enters your home can make all the difference in how it feels inside. This works both with natural and artificial lighting.
One of the great things about this, is it really means you can play with how the room feels.
From different fabrics at the windows to lights which throw different colours or shadows when on. There is so much you can do.
Allow Yourself To Do What You Want.
Sometimes in our homes, it is so easy to follow the trends, however, your home is for you. Somewhere for you to feel happy and at ease.
So most of all when it comes to your home, follow your heart, if your home is full of clashing colours that’s fine, full of big and bold statement pieces awesome!
Let your heart decide what your home looks like, it doesn’t need to be straight of an Instagram picture as long as you love it.
What is your favourite place in your home and what makes it unique?

The living room is my favourite place in my home. I love my wall gallery where I put up our B&W travel photos.
Love this advice and the ideas. I don’t think I have a favourite area at the moment; nothing is quite how I want it. It’s great to get some inspiration, thank you.
I like my craft area best, even if it is chaos to the untrained eye haha
Really lovely ideas. My favourite place in our home is our bedroom. We’ve chalk painted all our old pine furniture and I’ve hung pretty lights around mirrors. It all looks so fresh and pretty.
My bedroom is my favourite place in my home, I have a super Kings size bed and often lay there for 5 minutes through the day to take 5, we have to move soon as my fiance has ill health and we live in a maisonette with two flights of stairs which are to much for him, so we’ve also had to put decorating on pause xx
Love this post. I love to upcycle furniture and think it is important to furnish & decorate your home as you like it and not always what is the latest trend.
Experimenting with lighting is a great tip! I found that an RGB bulb makes my carpet look a much nicer colour!
I love these ideas! When I will b decorating my house I will be like a crazy person! I love so much all those beautiful little things
Ohh enjoy decorating your home – it is always such an interesting time!
I loved the last part you wrote – “it doesn’t need to be straight of an Instagram picture as long as you love it.” That is something people need to remember. After all we did that before we had computers with pinterest and instagram!
I think what we think others have is so messed up by these perfect photos – we need to remember that’s just one moment not the whole the thing.
Follow you heart. That is the best piece of advice! beautiful post.
Most definitely you need to use what speaks to you.
All of this are purely awesome. I like how simple and elegant it looked like. The 2nd one is definitely my favorite.
They are lovely ideas aren’t they – so much you can do around the home.
We are thinking of shifting our house soon. I will keep these four decor ideas in mind. I do love reclaimed furniture and glass in the house. Plus lighting can brighten a dull area.
It is amazing how nice reclaimed and reloved pieces can look isn’t it.
Nothing matches in my home and a lot of time I feel like it clashes lol. But I do love the way it makes me feel cozy. I’m going to use your decor ideas as I tackle the teen cave I’m making Tyler.
As long as you love it what does it matter! I have to admit I like all different items as well.
I agreed with your point that home is a place where we ‘ourselves’ feel comfortable so we should just not only follow the trend but the ones that make us feel good and comfortable.
Most definitely – no point just making it look one way as you think you should and not really liking it.
I like both of your decor idea I will try to incorporate the lightning tips in to my home.
Thank you – I hope they help you with some new ideas.
It is the simple things that made the biggest statement!
It really is at times isn’t it.
I love to find things that other people have used and loved but work well in my house. I am glad I am not the only one.
It is nice isn’t it – to give something a new lease of life.
These are some very nice touches! I would love to see you do more like this.
Thank you so much 🙂 I’ll try and think of some more.
We have totally fallen into a decorating rut. I’ll have to give some of your ideas a try! I really need to change up our home decor.
It is fun changing things about isn’t it! Good luck with having some new changes in your home.
Thanks for sharing! I love getting new and creative ideas from others about areas in the home!
Your welcome I hope it has given you some new ideas.
I like these ideas. I am planning to changes all the lights in here or add some beautiful colors.
Oh, that sounds lovely! I hope your changes all go well.
upcycling really interests me, it amazes me that you can make something old look so good again
It is amazing what some people can do isn’t it.
For me, I like a space to envoke a feeling without being obvious. For example, my living room area should say “beach” due to the lightness, color scheme and accessories (although NONE of the accessories have the word beach on them.)
That sounds so lovely, like you bring in a feeling with it all!
I do agree, no matter what the trend is if it ain’t your style, you’ll be bothered by it. So do what you want.
Most definitely it’s your home – make sure you love it!
These are nice ideas. I had been planning about lighting. It brings out changes to the objects in the room.
It is amazing the impact lighting has on a room.
These are great ideas. I particularly need to improve upon the natural lighting in my home, especially in my kitchen as I am always photographing the dishes I cook.
Ohh yes it makes all the difference to photography, doesn’t it!
I can’t wait to get our own home so we can play around with decor more as I was limited in my old flat and now I’m back at home x
You will have so much fun with it I am sure!
Some lovely ideas there. After my expensive glass coffee table spontaneously cracked and needed to be removed from the house, I popped into a charity furniture shop and had a great time looking around. I ended up replacing my table with a smaller one for the sum of £5.00. Very practical!
Oh my goodness I bet that was horrid – but amazing what you can find in charity shops!
I think lighting is so important in any living space, especially natural lighting!
Lighting really makes all the difference to how you feel doesn’t it.
I really love the upcycling and refinishing concept. It allows me to get creative while incorporating unique decor throughout my home.
Most definitely it is something fun and makes for something completely unique for yourself as well.
I absolutely love places with plants, either artificial or alive and also like putting up lamps in my house. The ambiance they create if perfect for creating a calming atmosphere. Also, I do like hanging stylish mirrors too.
Plants are lovely to have around the home aren’t they – I have more now and I love it!
I love these decor ideas! I’m looking for a new flat, so I hope I’ll be able to use your inspirations one day! 🙂
Ohh good luck with moving in to a new flat it is exciting when you move!
My office is my favorite place in my home. It’s really cozy, and decorated to my liking.
It is nice when you have somewhere which really feels like yours.
I LOVE using reclaimed items, and they fit in well with my industrial farmhouse look. I love the mix of wood and metal.
It is amazing what some people can do with wood isn’t it!
What I find unique is how to gain space by playing on the glass, it’s new for me thank you for sharing
Most definitely it is amazing what you can do with some things.
Hmm, these are good things for me to consider. I’d love to redo some of my rooms and using more glass could be nice.
I hope they help you think of some new things to have in your home!
I love these ideas. Now if I could get my family to stop adding clutter to my decor all would be good.
Haha I have to admit I am a nightmare for adding clutter.
I love up cycling. That’s my favorite type of furniture. There’s so many things you can make with a little imagine.
I love these ideas. I am all for being unique. I love a bright home, so I always make sure the lightening looks good.
Most definitely I’ve lived in some really dark places and it does affect you.

Reclaim or DIY is always my choice. Hanging a mirror always helps make a room look bigger. We put in floating shelves in our kitchen and love them.
That is such a great tip and it is amazing how well it works isn’t it.
I think lighting is really key to any space – my current office is small with only one small window which can be really dreary so having adding a lamp or two is a great idea.
Most definitely it is amazing how much lighting changes the look and feel of a room.
Great ideas here
My husband and I are always trying to figure out new ways to JAZZ up our living space. So I appreciate these decor ideas! 🙂
Good luck with jazzing your home up a little!
