Maximalism is a design style that uses an abundance of wonderful items all on display at the same time. Bordering on cluttered, maximalism is all about surrounding yourself with the stuff you love. Here are a few tips & tricks for how to decorate in a maximalist style without your home looking too messy. Embrace Bold ColorsOne of the most popular elements of maximalism is the use of bold and vibrant colors. Use colors that make you happy and wake you up in the morning instead of colors that are "safe" and boring that everyone else uses in their homes. Don't be afraid to mix and match colors that are not often paired together. Uniqueness is appreciated in a maximalist style. If you're not sure where to start, pick one large item with many colors (such as a large rug or piece of art) and decorate your room using the colors in that item. Select at least 3 colors and repeat those colors in at least 3 places in your room. For an added designer touch, also add in colors that are lighter or darker versions of your 3 colors for added depth of color. For example, one of your colors might be turquoise. You can decorate your room with turquoise lamps, some art with the color turquoise, and some turquoise candle holders. In addition to turquoise, you can add accessories in the color aqua (which is a lighter version of turquoise) and other accessories in a dark turquoise color. Do not have an equal amount of each color visible in your room else your room might look overly styled and not natural. For best results, select a certain color to be 60% of the color in your room, another color to be 30% of the color, and the 3rd color to be only 10% of the color in your room. Mix and Match PatternsMaximalism is all about mixing and matching different patterns to create a one-of-a-kind look. Avoid mixing and matching patterns from the same store - select items from different stores so you don't end up with the same style as your neighbors. Don't be afraid to decorate using stripes with polka dots, florals with animal prints, and/or geometric shapes with abstract designs. When it comes to mixing patterns, there are a few key tips to keep in mind.... First, try to choose patterns that are a similar color which will help to tie the different patterns together and create a cohesive look. Second, mix patterns of different scales, such as a large-scale floral with a small-scale geometric print so the patterns don't try to compete with each other. Use Texture to Add DepthMaximalism is not just about using a wide range of items with different color and pattern, it is also about using a mixture of textures. Rooms without much texture tend to feel sterile and boring, so feel free to add as much texture as you want. Some popular textural fabric include velvet, leather, wool, and fur. You can also use textured wallpapers, rugs, and/or pillows to add warmth to your room. Also consider addig some rough textures to contrast with your soft textures, such as wicker, exposed brick, and vintage hard back books with fabric or leather binding. Mix and Match Furniture StylesMaximalism and eclectic furniture go hand in hand. Don't be afraid to mix and match different styles of furniture to create a space that's unique and full of your own personality & style. Consider pairing a vintage sofa with a modern coffee table or mixing mid-century modern chairs with a rustic dining table for a one-of-a-kind unique aesthetic. When mixing furniture styles, make sure to consider scale and proportion since your items should feel like you picked them exclusively for your home, not just thrown together hand-me-downs. Using an eclectic mix of furniture is a great way to ensure that your home does not look like your neighbor's and it is uniquely yours. Don't Forget the ArtUse unique, collected, and/or bold pieces of art to add personality to your maximalist space and repeat your color scheme. Consider using oversized pieces of art to make a bold statement. You can also use a gallery wall, which is a collection of different pieces of smaller art that is hung together to create the feeling of one larger piece of art. Also consider using sculptures in your room, which are especially dramatic with an uplight. You can use basically any art piece that you love, but make sure that you love it and didn't just buy some generic piece of art to fill the space. Don't be afraid to mix and match different styles of art, as long as they create a cohesive look and feel. When hanging your art, make sure to consider the height at which you hang your art. In general, the center of your art should be hung around eye level, which is typically around 60 inches from the floor. Add Layers with AccessoriesThe use of many accessories is vital in maximalist design. Select accessories that repeat your room's color scheme and style to create cohesion. Feel free to paint items that you already own but whose color doesn't quite suit your needs. Metallic spray paint is a favorite for bringing new life to old accessories. Use accessories in a variety of textures and materials to create visual interest and depth. This can include different materials like wood, stone, metal, paper, and woven items. Include unique vintage and antique items of interest that not only look good but are a good conversation starter. Collect your home accessories over time, not just in one shopping trip to one store, to ensure that you find unique items that you love and not mass produced items that simply fill the space. Use Unique LightingMaximalist spaces require maximalist lighting. One light fixture in the center of your ceiling is not good enough! You need to have multiple light sources for aesthetics and to be able to light your room according to the occasion. Consider upgrading your ceiling light to something more decorative or ignore it and only use it when you need maximum light while cleaning that room. Add unique light fixtures (such as chandeliers, wall sconces, and pendant lights) to add personality to your home. Beautiful colorful lamps or lamps that have a sculptural shape are a great unique addition to a maximalist space. For the best lighting in your home, consider adding each of the following....... Ambient lighting is the general lighting in the room, but it can also be decorative if you add a chandelier or pendant light as the main source of light. Task lighting is lighting directed towards an area where a certain task will be performed, such as a piano light for reading sheet music or a desk lamp. Accent lighting is lighting that accentuates an item of interest, such as an art light shining on a piece of art, an uplight in the pot of a tree, or light inside a china cabinet highlighting the gorgeous china.

For a pretty display on my kitchen table, I decided to "kopy kat" an idea I saw in the January issue of "Better Homes and Gardens" magazine. The article explains how to put orchids creatively in tall vases. An orchid expert tells how to keep the orchids' roots healthy while they are in the vases. I have been downsizing my vase collection so I don't have the straight-sided vases that I used to. I did find three former (spigots are broken) clear glass drink dispensers in the attic. I turned the spigots towards the window so they are less obvious. I found three orchids on sale at the grocery store on sale for only $10 each. I had intentions of following the directions in the magazine for keeping the roots moist while they are out of the pot and under glass. The problem was that when I got the orchids out of the pots and into the glass containers, I loved seeing the twisted and curly roots. I didn't want to cover them up with rocks, etc. I did think that the jars needed more orchid medium to not look so skimpy so I got some more at Home Depot. To get the new orchid medium down in the bottom of the containers in the places that needed it, I used a technique I learned when I was making terrariums. Making a funnel out of paper and placing the narrow end where you want the medium (or soil) to land in the container, guides it without getting stuff on the leaves, or places that you don't want it. Another tip is to to use a cork on a wooden skewer to move the medium (or soil) around as needed without trying to get your hands or fingers down in the glass (and perhaps breaking a leaf). Here are the containers with more orchid medium in the bottom and around the base of the roots. The magazine's instructions say to disassemble the orchids, rocks, etc. every 7-10 days and soak the roots in tepid water then reassemble them. Because my roots are exposed, I give them about ten spritzes of water everyday (trying to get to all the roots in the bottom of the container) to compensate for any lost moisture. I move them to the kitchen area for their spritzing so I don't get water on the wood table. So far the roots are staying green and look happy. The atmosphere inside the containers stays moist for an hour or so everyday. When the flowers fall off I will re-pot the orchids. For now I am enjoying not only the flowers but also the roots of the orchids under glass. This was a very easy project to copy...you might like to try it also and give it your own spin! Here's a good image to "pin" for Pinterest ...

The Twin House Barndominium plan is a unique design. The floor plan incorporates an open-concept living and dining room on the main floor and two bedrooms on the second floor. Every square foot of this floor plan is designed to be functional yet incorporate the outdoor beauty of the landscape. Featuring a sleek black exterior that exudes modernity, the Twin House Floorplan seamlessly integrates with the surrounding landscape. Inside the barndominium, you'll find a spacious open-concept living room with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two offices, and a play area. Combined with the ADU, the entire barndominium plan includes four bedrooms. This plan is designed with a conventional wood framing system with black siding that keeps the building process simple. The Twin House Plans were initially inspired by a barn house with a modern touch. The two basic-shaped structures joined by a screen porch create a unique and captivating modern and traditional look. The black siding and roof give the property a sleek and contemporary feel that contrasts beautifully with the light wood accents. The key living room space leads to a small covered patio. One of the standout features of the Twin House Plans is its use of standard door and window sizes, making it easier for owners to source materials locally and manage their construction budget. This barndominium plan is perfect for creating a dream house with a unique design. Whether you prefer traditional homes or modern designs, the Twin House Plans can cater to your taste and style. Main Residence Step inside the Twin house; the living quarters are designed with an open floor plan living space and dining room with high, vaulted cathedral ceilings. The large double-height windows offer a view from the great room to the outdoors, and a sliding door leads to a deck. The open floor plan design creates one ample space for all the living spaces. The L-shaped kitchen includes a center island and a regular-sized pantry. There is a powder room and closet for storage on the ground floor. Storage is also available under the stairs. Other features include a dedicated dog washing station, a laundry and mudroom, a master suite with a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with a separate wet room containing the shower and bathtub. The second floor includes two bedrooms with tons of closet space, two offices, a play area, and a bathroom. These two home offices perfectly adapt to the new lifestyle of working from home. The floor plan has additional play spaces that can be enclosed as a game room or converted into a four-bedroom house. Screen Porch The 164 sqft screen porch can be accessed from the side of the main residence and is designed for entertaining guests or hosting dinner parties. The patio offers protection from mosquitoes and other insects, even on rainy days. The screen porch is an extension of the living quarters for the beautiful summer days. ADU The Twin House Plans also include an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) incorporated as a unique feature of this floor plan design. The ADU has two spaces. One is a multi-functional space that can house another bedroom with enough room for a work desk.
