20 Artistic Bohemian Home Decor Ideas

Cool, classy and relaxed – these are words used to describe Bohemian home décor. If you think that you have these characteristics then a breezy Bohemian abode should be your interior style. So, how do you start your Bohemian rhapsody? Here are some tips:

Welcome the tie-died prints in almost every kind of fabric for your living room or bedroom. Bohemians are known for their colorful tie-died fabrics and these does not make your home authentic Bohemian but they also add drama and texture in any kind of furniture and space. Play with colors and make your own Bohemian prints. Experiment with different hues or colors that you love. You may even make different color patterns for different areas of your home.

Cover your floors with all kinds and colors of rugs. There is no need to be picky; Bohemians love to play with all sorts of colors and textures! Choose rugs of all sizes and shapes and make sure that colorful pieces are seen and not tucked away under a furniture piece, sofa or table. Your home will truly be a comfortable and interesting place to come home to after a long and tiring day.

Take nature in! Bohemians love nature so much that they have more plants and flowers inside their home than furniture! But take care to place these plants strategically in your home so your place won’t look too crowded. Place large potted plants at the back of large furniture pieces such as sofas and cabinets while small plants could hang from the banister, from the sides of the room and also in the center of the low center table.

Use colorful ottomans and pillows to dominate your room. Choose quilted fabrics to cover your sofa and armchairs instead of plain ones. Ottomans are often beaded, colorful and very comfortable and you do not have to have one ottoman but rather two or more would do! And remember the rug-covered floor? Scatter a few pillows here and there to encourage floor seating.

Use colorful lanterns in different shades and textures. Hang these wonderful pieces in a corner, in the middle of the room and even near the fireplace. And for more hanged ornaments, Bohemian home décor is also inclusive of beaded curtains that could be used as room dividers, accents and even screens. There are so many great decorative items and wonderful pieces to use if you choose a Bohemian home décor style.
