Choosing patterned textiles in a room takes finesse, it\u2019s not something easily thrown together although when compiled correctly the layers of patterns looks effortless in a space.\u00a0Those who lack a decorative eye can find introducing patterns into their home tough to do, so they add the mere solid basics, which can create a classic statement but lacks personality and depth. <\/span>

\nBy adding patterns and prints in a room a home seller can navigate a buyer\u2019s eye throughout the space allowing the entire property to feel cozier, a bit more authentic and lively.\u00a0One of the easiest ways to begin using patterned elements is to start small– pairing designs with similar colors rather than going for bold, graphic eye-catching prints that can be a bit overwhelming for some.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mixing Patterns<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Start by choosing patterns that reflect the design style you\u2019d like to have in the room. Remember that the design style should mimic that architectural style of the home so it creates a cohesive feel. Are you looking to build a traditional, contemporary or country room? This answer will help you narrow down your pattern palette. For example, if you live in a farmhouse and want to capture that feel in the design style, choosing a gingham pattern or fabric with roosters will play up the theme.<\/span>

\nOnce the design style is decided then determine what color palette would be appropriate. Look to a color palette that invokes the feeling you want to capture. Want a warm and welcoming feel? Choose warmer colors like orange or red. Looking for a relaxed feel? Add cooler colors like blue and greens to the mix. Choose one or two main colors then once you have your main color selection down, add a bit of contrast. We recently talked about choosing textiles on Facebook Live (watch below).<\/span>
