\n
\nThis royal fabric made an appearance this year and it\u2019s here to stay. From couches to throw pillows and even curtains \u2013 velvet adds a warmer, cozier atmosphere (and texture) to any interior.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\nHomeowners want to include more natural elements like wood into their home. (Shiplap, anyone?) This can also be found in bowls, architectural features and furniture. Including natural materials in a home creates a more inviting look than laminate or plastic. Other natural materials we see are wicker, jute and woven furniture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\nFollowing a natural materials theme, indoor plants have been on an upward trend as well. You\u2019ll find that live and artificial plants brighten up any home, and \u201ca bouquet of fresh flowers\u201d is every designer\u2019s secret interior home tip.<\/li>\n
\nWallpapers are making a comeback, especially geometric and floral patterns. You might see one accent wall or you might see a room with all four sides of wallpaper. Bold patterns add character and personal flair to a home. Don\u2019t limit yourself to wallpaper either \u2013 this trend is also seen on backsplashes and furniture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\nMove over, rose gold, there\u2019s a new metal in town. You\u2019ve seen this one before and it\u2019s back to make its second appearance in 2018. Easy ways to incorporate brass is by changing out your bathroom hardware and finding home accents such as brass vases or lamps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nLooking for your home decorating style?<\/h3>\n
