Must Have Home Decor Items in 2020
Redecorating your home can do wonders for your physical, mental, and emotional health. 2020 is a great year for interior design.

Redecorating your home can do wonders for your physical, mental, and emotional health. Having a space specifically designed to be your refuge after a long day of work and chores can save you from burning out. Moreover, a room with a layout that is well thought-out can help you accomplish more tasks and generally be more productive.
With that said, many individuals shy away from redecorating because they can’t afford it. They claim to have neither the financial resources nor the time and energy to endeavor in a redecorating project.
Nevertheless, sprucing up your space doesn’t have to be a laborious and expensive affair. In fact, redecorating can be as simple as incorporating new and exciting decorative items into your space.

As they say, what goes around comes around. The same can be said for interior decor trends at least for 2020. This year would see the resurgence of vintage and antique accents around the homefront.
Take heed, however. When we say vintage, we mean vintage. 2020 would be all about bringing back the rustic and cozy 1800s aesthetic.
If you are in the process of redecorating 19th century style, make sure to strike a balance between the old and the new. There is nothing wrong with going all-out, if that is the vibe you are going for, but you don’t want your home to look like a museum. Especially if you are on a budget, it is good to start small and with only a few decor items. A vintage candelabra on your mantelpiece or a rustic looking flowering pot by your television console would do the trick.
Floral for Spring? Groundbreaking!
Decking your home with flowers shouldn’t be confined to springtime when fresh buds are available. In fact, this year, decorating an area with floral accents is all the rage. Who doesn’t want to be trendy?
One exciting way to incorporate floral prints in your property is with wallpaper. In 2020, the larger the scale and the bolder the color - the better. Choosing a striking wallpaper can be the centerpiece of your entire living room. However, if you are not one for committing to big,bold prints for a large area, you can try stick-on wallpaper options for just a single accent wall. This way, it would be a relatively less expensive and tedious affair if you should change your mind.
Nevertheless, if an accent wall still scares you, putting up floral themed art should do the trick.
Unleash Your Inner Princess: Canopy Bed
While pink is also a color that is in vogue this 2020, that is not what we mean by princess. By princess, we mean canopy beds.
There is no denying how canopy beds can make a big statement. After all, beds are usually the biggest furniture in the bedroom. They can be all the more imposing if these pieces reach the ceiling. There are plenty of canopy beds that you can choose from. You aren’t confined to bulky and tacky draped pieces. There are metal and acrylic options available in the market.
With that said, we understand that buying a piece of furniture is not quite the cheap redecorating tip that you are looking for. However, there are metal canopy pieces online that cost less than $200. If push comes to shove, you can always DIY.
Bold New Kitchen Colors

The last few years saw the peak popularity of all-white kitchens. While there is allure to a kitchen that is decked in white and looks clean and pristine, 2020 is all about big, bold colors in your kitchen and dining area.
Again, as with every redecorating project, it is smart to start small. Especially if you are dealing with bold decorative choices, the last thing you want to happen is to make expensive mistakes.
For your colorful kitchen, it can be a good idea to start tweaking tiny furnishings. Cabinet and drawer handles can be spruced up with a bold color. If you are feeling adventurous, painting your cabinet doors in colors aside from neutrals is also a good way to brighten up the space. If you are renting your home, opting for stick-on colored wallpaper can transform your kitchen almost instantly. Choosing brightly colored decor items would also help bring life to the space.
Think Cozy Fabrics
Similar to white kitchens, the last decade was all about modern and industrial. If you ask us, this dystopian look doesn’t go well with the optimism that 2020 brings - at least not for us.
The new decade would see a shift from masculine and industrial elements to an aesthetic that is more cozy and comfortable. Instead of harsh lines, the year would see softer and more natural curves.
With that said, it is time to get cozy! Especially with fabrics, this year it is all about materials that are comfortable to use and easy to maintain - think scuffed leather and soft polyester - both gentle on the skin and simple to clean.
If you want to achieve that cozy vibe for your home, start with a pillow or two! We bet you would agree that we can never have too many throw pillows. 2020 is your time to invest a go wild.
Ditch Black, Try Navy
If you are looking for a bold neutral to accent your home and give contrast to your decor, we suggest to choose another color other than black. Navy blue in 2020 would be all the rage. After all, this color is Pantone’s color of the year. It is about time navy blue gets the attention that it deserves.
Thankfully, navy blue isn’t a very difficult color to style. Like black, it can create contrast in an otherwise bright and light color palette. This color adds dimension without being as boring and bold as black.
If you want to incorporate a little bit of navy in your home, start with your decor. A navy blue vase in the center of your living room is quite the statement. Likewise, painting your moulding blue can create the depth and interest you have long been looking for.
It’s All About Natural: Rattan and Wood Furniture

In 2020, there is a shift towards interior decor trends that is more natural and less industrial. Having said that, there is no stopping you from bringing the outside in. Aside from plants and flowers, you can also incorporate natural materials in your home.
Rattan and wood are good accents to start with. A rattan chair or a woven rug can elevate your space without breaking the bank. Coupled with decorative succulents and maybe a monstera plant or two - your home is as trendy as can be!
It begs to be repeated. If there is anything that you should be taking away from this article, it is that redecorating doesn’t have to be expensive. Sprucing up your home shouldn’t put you on the red if you know exactly the pieces that would elevate the space. The trends above can steer you in the right direction. You don’t have to take on all the trends. In fact, we suggest you don’t. Pick one or two tips that speak to you and execute. Thank us later!
