2026 is the year to add PERSONALITY to your home!! More custom, more character, less copying and more YOU.
Here are five ways you can add more custom details to your spaces:
1. Upgrade the trim and millwork.
Get fancy with it! Not just shiplap. Crown molding, a chair rail, or box paneling can instantly elevate and curate a very bland room or hallway.
2. Be intentional with materials.
Whether that be fabrics for new curtains or tile selection for a bathroom renovation. Let it be thoughtful and a representation of YOU, not just what you see “trending” online. Draw inspiration from outside sources but ultimately, let your space reflect you.
3. Layer lighting, not just fixtures.
Lamps, sconces, picture lights - OH MY! Having layers of lighting can instantly shift the atmosphere and the mood of a space. Want an even more simple approach? Swap lightbulbs! Changing from a daylight bulb to a soft white bulb could add cozy you never knew was possible.
4. Customize the background elements.
Cabinet hardware, light switch plates, vent covers - all of these seemingly small details in a home provide endless opportunities to customize and add intentionality to every room.
5. Design for how you actually live.
Add a drop zone for the shoes and backpacks, carve out a reading nook where the sunlight hits perfectly in your bedroom, build out some shelving in a closet that desperately needs organizing. Let go of the “rules” and make your home fit your needs.
2026 is a beautiful year to make your house a HOME✨
