Decorating your home can be somewhat difficult. You may have a specific budget you need to adhere to, as well as cater to the tastes of each person living in the home. However, you may all agree that you want some statement pieces in your home that can be both great to look at and provide conversational topics when you have guests.

Of course, these can vary in price depending on what you are after, as well as the work that might go into their creation – so with this in mind, let’s take a closer look at some of the most cost-effective decorations you can purchase to wow your guests!
Custom prints
Many people might have photos or artwork hanging on the walls of their homes. To do something a bit different, that still looks great, you might want to think about having a print on metal. This can enable you to have some of your favorite family photos printed onto an aluminum backing, still in full color.
The cost of doing so can be relatively inexpensive, and they’re also quite simple to hang on your walls. To really make them stand out, you could consider uploading a high-resolution image and putting up a large metal print in your lounge. These are also scratch-resistant, which mean that they last for many years and withstand anything your kids or pets can throw at them!
Indoor plants
The plants you have inside your home don’t have to sit in basic pots on windowsills. You may be able to find something that’s deemed quirky. This could really give your guests something to talk about. Rather than just attempting to use shelves and sills for these items, you may want to think about opting for a larger, floor-standing pot.
If space is available, you could even consider hanging some planters securely from the ceiling. When using these, you’ll want to ensure that they are high enough not to hurt people, but still within reach for easy watering and care. Should you still not be able to find something to your taste, you might want to consider painting or decorating your own planter, for a unique look.
Sculptures and statues
It is possible to buy sculptures and statues in many homeware stores. However, these could look the same as others you have seen in your friends’ homes. If your budget allows, you may be able to commission a bespoke piece made by a trained sculptor.
This could cost a significant amount of money, yet you may want to bear in mind that you will be paying for not only the materials but also the artist’s labor and skills. The size and amount of detail you require may also be factored into the cost. Due to this, if your budget is smaller, you may want to go for a smaller, simpler sculpture.
Final Thoughts…
Changing some of the decorations in your home can help you to enjoy it even more. When you have people over, they may also take a vested interest in some of your design choices. Combining both fashion and your own personal tastes can help you to make some great décor decisions.
