A medallion chair, a country sideboard, an old candlestick ... how to give these pieces a new cluster? Our tips to boost your decor without changing everything.
Adept or not of the classic style, we all have at home a piece of furniture inspired by this period: a chest of drawers, a wardrobe, one or more medallion chairs, a Bergere armchair, a console or a sofa ... Even if we are attached, their look a bit dated and their imposing shapes can get bored. So to give them a facelift and melt them in the trends of the moment, nothing like a little facelift deco.
Make something new with old
As interior designer Charlotte Vinet explains, simple gestures make it possible to change the atmosphere of a room. Move furniture, mixing styles, paint a wall or add a strip of wallpaper can completely renew one's perception of its decor.
The main thing is not so much the object as the overview of the room in which it is located. The frame in which our furniture is located counts more than the furniture itself. Simply place a matte white on the walls and ceiling, or switch from carpet to hardwood floors, so that everything seems completely new, including our family furniture!
Dress up your furniture
Without changing the paintings and relooking the floor, one can even revive his pieces of classical furniture. To clean them, to repainting them, even to paint them, and at once they take a different pace. We can also have fun moving them or replace your classical style pillow with a Nordic pillowcase to give a Nordic decorative style to your room. We have always seen this old gilded mirror in the entrance? And if we put it above the bed ... We can also mix them, add a very contemporary carpet near the lounge chairs or put a design lighting above his dining table Henri III era. Finally, we can divert them: an old storage cabinet becomes the support of a basin in the bathroom, for example.
In short the solution, always have in mind the idea of lightening the space, punctuated with strong colors, and dare sometimes spectacular.
