Now that you have identified a dcor style, the challenging part may now be to implement that style and make it substantial enough so others will notice.
There are seven simple elements that will really help you emphasize this great look.
1. Choose a focal point that will reflect your dcor style.
This signature piece is usually the most dominate item you see and sets the tone of the room. If this piece is not your specific style, the room will not look its best. An example could be a beautiful Queen Anne armoire for a Classic Traditional style or a large rustic log mantel for the Mountain Lodge look.
2. Use colors that are common to that specific style.
Different dcor styles are usually shown with a collection of colors that are prominent for that palette. Make sure your room has those colors. For example, French Country is well known for its pretty yellows and blues. Americana Style would not be the same without red, white and blue.

Every ones needs a conversation piece or collection that demonstrates the owners personality and interests. A collection also doesnt need to be large just 3 to 5 objects. Ginger jars for the Asian Dcor or cute porcelain teapots to emphasize an English Garden style.
4. Frame an authentic object that is original to the country or era.
This simple task does not have to be expensive. Old Postcards from Italy for your Tuscany Villa Style or wine labels from France for a European Look will add authenticity and personal touch to the dcor.
5. Purchase a large coffee table book to demonstrate that dcor.
Large beautiful books can subtly emphasis the style you enjoy. The book does need to be a decor books but rather a topic that is related to the style. For example, a Vintage Advertisements for the Shabby Chic look, or Andy Warhol book for the Metro-Modern look.

The greenery can be real or artificial as long as they look healthy. Nothing spoils a designer-look like a dying plant. Use cactus for the Southwestern look or a great palm tree for the Tropical style.
7. Review all you accents and accessories to make sure they blend with your new found style.
By reviewing each element individually to see if it blends (not necessary perfectly matches), you can make sure you have a well-coordinated look. Look for a geometric patterned pillow for a Modern look; search for fringed lampshades for an Old World style.
Remember decorating is a process. Searching for those perfect accessories to emphasize your style is part of the fun. These tips will help you add the style you want to the home you love.
