Around the home, there are several, simple interior design tips for incorporating organic home accessories. Best House Floor Plans compiled a short list of easy, low-budget design tips on dressing up the décor. Using sticks, stones, soy and organic elements, consider these interior design tips to decorate with eco-friendly home accessories.
The Entrance
At the door, the wood entwined wreath is a natural accoutrement to adorn an entrance. Whether it’s a store-bought door wreath or twigs handpicked from the lawn, this eco-friendly home accessory is a welcoming impression.
Interior design tip: If you decide to make your own twig door wreath, select up to 15-pliable twigs (10 to 14-inches in length). Use burlap to bundle the twigs. (Avoid brittle twigs).
Foyer
In the foyer, less is more. It takes just a single accessory to create an organic home accessory. For instance, pour filtered water into a glass vase. Next, configure a lucky bamboo plant in the vase. Centering the plant in place, drop various sized stones in the vase, covering the roots. This eco-friendly home accessory is low maintenance. It requires moderate light and a few drops of distilled or purified water– just twice a month.
The Kitchen
In the kitchen the edible centerpiece is multifunctional. It doubles as eye candy and as a healthy motivation to snack nutritionally.
Interior design tip: Take a massive, decorative wooden, rod iron or ceramic bowl and fill it with apples, oranges or pears. Be sure to buff the apples or pears, so they shine. And voila you have an edible centerpiece.
Great Room
Move over LED lighting, soy candles present another organic home accessory. What makes the soy candle so eco-friendly is that when it is extinguished, it releases few carcinogenic fumes. By day, unlit candles double as a functional piece of artwork. By night, they light up the room, instituting a flicker of illuminations.
