Christmas Gift Ideas: Interior Décor Presents
Choosing a gift for someone to display in their home can be
frustrating. On the other hand, if you're shopping for a friend
or family member, you can give a present that will be
appreciated.
When to Not Give Home Décor Presents
If you've never been to your friend's home, I would definitely
not give a household item unless it's for a recent bride with a
gift registry. Even if you're gift shopping with your friend and
she points out a darling framed picture or frilly pillow, that
doesn't mean the item will fit in her personal interior décor.
Perhaps you know your friend collects figurines like I do.
Because of my last name, I started collecting fish years ago.
However, I collect tiny glass antique fish, about one inch tall.
The large wooden fish my mother gave me just doesn't fit my
interior décor.
How to Give Home Décor Presents
If you have been to your friend's home and know she needs to
complete her home decorating with accessories, here are some
gift ideas:
1. Double check your friend's color scheme. Your gift doesn't
have to match perfectly to blend in.
2. Make sure her home isn't too crowded with many small
decorating items. Many small accessories make a home feel
cluttered.
3. Make something yourself that has meaning to you both. For
instance, make a stained glass icon to reflect light in her
bathroom window.
4. Find an old snapshot of you two from the past. Get the
picture touched up professionally and frame it in a frame that
blends in with her home decorations.
5. Give your friend a huge candle dressed up with pearls,
sequins, or seashells with a base that matches her style. For
instance, if she loves silver, crystal, ceramics, or brass,
choose that material.
If you give thought to your gift with these interior decorating
tips, you will make your friend happy.
