This floor mirror helps expand the sense of space in this small dining area and enhances the lovely hanging light fixture over the table. Choosing a mirror color that is similar to wall and/or curtains helps the frame blend with the other elements in the room. If you want a bigger impact, paint the mirror a color that contrasts with other colors in your room.

Though typically interior designers recommend against investing in trends, mirrors are one trend that you can safely invest in without fear of it going out of style. However, as with any trend, there are certain guidelines you should adhere to. For example, avoid trendy finishes on the mirror, such as etching or embedded trim, as these can date the mirror and look them out of style. Remember, however, that your frames can easily be swapped out as your style of home decor changes and you can find frames in traditional, contemporary or modern styles.

Updating home accessories and decor is the simplest way to update the overall look of any room in your home. Home accessories, being relatively inexpensive, are an easy way to incorporate changing interior design and home decor trends into your space. Therefore, it makes perfect sense to invest in trends in pieces that can easily be swapped out as they change, rather than investing in large, trendy items. Here are some of this fall’s trendiest home decor items and ideas.

Eclectic Looks This year, eclectic items that are mixed and matched in a single space are extremely trendy.

The eclecticism makes the space visually interesting. The great thing about this particular home decor trend is that it can be incorporated into a number of styles. There are dozens of different takes and you simply can’t choose the wrong item when it comes to eclectic looks.

Cal Lighting Deer Wall Art Taxidermy is super popular these days.  We like the lodge look but not sure how we feel about real taxidermy. This deer has an urban lodge feel and we love the black finish that gives it a contemporary spin. What an eye-catching wall art!

Cyan Design Winter Elm Bowl We like the elegant tree design on the Winter Elm glass bowl.  We think this would look great on a console table in an entry, a coffee table or on the dining table.

It’s often advised against picking the color palette first. However, you can pick a sample color palette to help you find the right accessories for the space. In short, this just means carrying around a few paint chips with you as you look at home accessories and decor for the master bedroom. Don’t throw any paint on the wall or make any concrete decisions about color until you’ve purchased everything necessary for the space.
