Eco Home Tips: Eco-friendly Decor Tips

In these days where homes décor trends and styles are ever-changing, there is only one category of style that will remain timeless. Sustainable home décor has been one of the leading motivations in today's major home designs. The alarming rate to which Earth's atmosphere is deteriorating has caused green decors to go beyond being a style fad but into a lifestyle. The pursuit to reducing individual carbon footprints has led people to look for ways to improve their home's energy-efficiency.

1. Roadside Treasures - This might not be the case for others but there is a surprising number of households in the US that scrap away unwanted goods just outside their property. Most of these unwanted goods are boxes and piles that contain curtains, table cloths, vintage chairs and tables, and wall decos that can still be re-used with the right creativity. These unwanted items can also be used for fun DIY projects.

2. Thrift Shopping - Thrift shops can be a good place to get lost. The amount of interesting finds in these shops are amazing. The key to making the most out of a day in the thrift shop is to not leave any stone unturned.

3. Nature - Especially during occasions, and holidays, twigs, dried leaves, and driftwood could become wonderful ideas for decorations.

4. Territory - The best way to decorate your house the green way is to reorganize and declutter. In the process of decluttering, one would be surprised to know how much space one could save from throwing away unnecessary items in the living room, kitchen, and bedroom. Let go of old magazines and broken items with "sentimental value." Changing photos on picture frames with other shelved photos can be a good way to change scenery. Repainting a room with non-toxic paint and adding items like record sleeves as wall arts is pretty hip nowadays.
