Prints help making any space more eye-catching and bold, just like bright colors, and they can spruce up many spaces easily. It may be very tricky to keep your home decor to just one pattern and sometimes we need to mix the prints. How to do that right and with style? Here are some ideas.
Use Only One Pattern
If you are thinking about one specific pattern idea, we recommend sticking to that one pattern instead of incorporating multiple ones. Doing so will allow that pattern to be the main focus. Meanwhile, keep the rest of the room with simple colors and basic lines. What to choose to add prints? It can be a statement wall done with edgy wallpaper, a bright printed sofa, tiles on a kitchen island, a large printed rug or curtains or even pillows, which are the easiest and most budget-friendly way to add prints to your home.

Pair Larger Or Dramatic Prints With Simpler Ones
Just because you are using pattern does not mean you can’t incorporate prints. The key is working with patterns that come in dark, rich hues and pairing them with other colors that are similar. Having this feature will add an edgy feel to the room while still being feminine and classic. You may also rock larger printed pieces as dominating ones, and all the rest of them will be smaller and secondary, it will work in a stylish way.

Combine Various Prints In Open Layouts

Keep them simple, yet keep them bright, doing so bring a cohesive look even if you include numerous different patterns. Do no limit yourself to 2-3 patterns consider adding 5 or more, create a bold space where prints and colors are dominating.
