Home Decor Advice on How to Lift Up Your Mood at Home

Post Comment






Do you know that the way you decorate your home may actually affects your mood? Imagine if your home is dimly lit and dull colored, you definitely won’t feel uplifted being at home. Then imagine that your home is brightly colored (orange, yellow or any bright color you can think of) and has a good lighting, you will certainly feel more relaxed and uplifted when you’re at home.

Researches have shown that the type of lighting and wall colors can affect a person’s mood. Hence, most interior designers will always suggest bright color or maybe warm colors. In terms of lighting, they will always pick yellow lighting over bright white lighting.

Now now, you don’t actually need to make huge changes to your home. You can just make simple improvements or changes and it will make quite a big difference whether you believe it or not. Here are some simple ways I think or read somewhere before that will make a difference.

  •    . Scent


How your home smells actually affects your mood. No one likes unpleasant smells like dirty shoes and sock, furniture smells and et cetera. This problem can be easily fixed as there are many scented candles and scented incense sticks sold. It can be easily found at any home décor shops and are quite affordable as well.
  • Greenery

A research has shown that a little greenery especially at a location that you will look at when you woke up actually makes you a little more positive. You can keep some pots of flowers as well at places you frequent most to help lift your mood up. Try choosing plants  that requires less maintenance or with a slow growth rate if you have a busy lifestyle.
  • Colors

Some may know that certain colors affect or even associate with different kind of emotions. Bright colors gives of a cheerful vibe whereas dark colors will make some people feeling down. This doesn’t necessary have the same effects on everyone. Everyone have their own favorite colors that makes them feel happy even if it’s a dark color. Sometimes some colors might bring up some certain fond memories as well. So choose a color that bring the happiness in you to brighten up your home.
  • Textures

Do you know textures of your furniture actually affects your mood? You certainly won’t like it if your furniture are hard and uncomfortable, would you? Just like how when we’re at home, we’ll always change to baggy clothes and messy bun to feel at ease. Hence why the textures of your furniture play a big role in make you feel comfortable at home. Don’t choose a furniture just because it looks nice and fashionable. Instead choose a furniture that makes you relax and at ease when you’re on it.
  •  Lighting

Different rooms in your home needs different types of lighting. For example, places that needs high attention such as the kitchen or the study table will be suitable for a bright colored lighting such as white. Whereas places that you use for resting and relaxation like the living room or bedroom, you should choose warm colored lighting.
