7 Ways to Personalize Your Home
Posted by Daniel Edelman on
Decorative hardware on your cabinets, a stunning wall sconce, a pop of detail on your sink drain, a crystal finial on your bathroom faucet. Finishing touches can add loads of personality and dimension to any room. They can be built into a design in the beginning stages, as an add-on at the end of a project to liven things up, or over time as you find the perfect pieces. These details are the jewelry to your design—they may not always be the obvious focal point of a room, but will provide a sense of completion, a uniqueness, and a welcoming feeling when discovered.
Finishing touches can be anything from a door knocker to artwork and plants, and they allow the owner’s personality to shine through. Here are 7 of our favorite products:
