The home accessories you choose are the small touches that turn your house into your personal space. Your home is supposed to be your space where you feel comfortable and joyful. It should be a reflection of yourself, your personality and what makes you happy.
Whether you are a minimalist or someone who loves to collect, there are so many things you can do with home accessories in order to bring your personality out in your home.
Plants not only add life to the home but bring a living element to it as well.
Not only do plants tie a room together, but they also offer you a sense of responsibility and an everyday task of keeping your plants healthy and thriving.
If you’re scared of your plants dying, consider low maintenance plants to cut down on the stress of watering them and place them in a sunny part of the house so they will get enough sunlight.
If you want to get creative with the positioning of your plants, you can buy a bunch of small potted plants and place them on funky shelves around your living room or place them with your book or media collections for a sophisticated collection of your favourite things on display.

A decorative plate to hold your keys or other small objects.
A decorative plate can be both a functional piece of decoration or simply an ornament to be looked at.
These can be placed on your bedside table or desk to hold items such as your keys or jewellery. This one decorative object can add an element or organisation into your life by providing a space for you to keep small items and keep from losing them when you place them down through the day.
If you want to step it up a notch with a DIY home decor project, you can put your prized plates up on your wall either in your hallway or living room to build an interesting collection that should get people talking about your decorative skills.

You can turn your corkboard into a collection of your favourite things. Pictures of friends, prints of your favourite bands, concert tickets, corkboards are the perfect place to pin up all of your favourites and keep them somewhere where you can look at them every day.
If you want something more sophisticated, hang a quirky corkboard (such as a world map) in your living room and pin your favourites there for a welcoming centrepiece for your guests to gaze upon.

Lights are very understated home accessories that can do a great deal to add personality to your living space.
It is very simple to string up some fairy lights to provide a calm ambience and gentle night lighting to your bedroom.
You can also opt for a neon or letter signage in your bedroom or living room to provide an alternative light source with a hint of artistic design.
Consider hanging some lights on your shelves or bookcase (if you have them) or even on your ceiling to add a mystical feel to your bedroom.

Posters and works of art make for perfect home accessories.
It is very easy to get your hands on some interesting prints to decorate your space or even posters of movies and music you love.
Prints do a lot to support artists but also offer a unique touch to the living space that is still a reflection of who you are.
Remember, you are never too old for posters. Put them in frames to make them more sophisticated than your typical teenage bedroom and maintain your class. You may be an adult now, but posters are forever.
