When you’re proud of where you come from and the cultural heritage associated with your place of birth, it’s only natural to want to celebrate it in your own home. And with St.David’s Day approaching, the pride of the Welsh will be out in all of its colourful glory for all to see!
And whether you’re eager to show your Welsh pride in a new house, or you’re just a fan of the looks of traditional Welsh living spaces, here are some simple but effective ways of displaying it in your very own home.
Display images you associate with Wales
Getting some canvas prints for your home will provide the depth and colourful celebrations of life that evoke those feelings of Wales between your walls. Look through some of your favourite pictures of your last visit to Wales, and look at getting them displayed on a stunning canvas in your home.
Not only will it capture the attention of your guests, but the wooden frame fits well within the rustic feel of your home. And every time you walk past it, you’ll feel a surge of pride and joy inside, whether it’s an image of the Welsh flag or a treasured family memory.
Embrace the rustic look
When it comes to style, the understated beauty of a traditional rustic aesthetic is hard to ignore. Embrace the potential around you, from the smoothness of decorative stones to the natural beauty of nature surrounding your home space.
For walls and other decorative areas, stick to earthy and natural colours that exude that rustic feel. And to avoid making the home feel too bogged down in those earthy textures, be sure to place decorative items around them. It’ll give you a strong colour foundation to add your artwork and images, making their colours pop even more.
Let natural light play its part
This is dependent on your overall space and the surroundings of your home, but many modern houses neglect to embrace the natural light available to them. The comforts that natural light can provide your home not only make it look bigger, but also feels more like a welcoming place to come home to or visit.
Seek out bespoke furniture from Welsh businesses
Welsh-crafted furniture is a must for anyone eager to celebrate the culture. And having bespoke furniture that was created by the hands of Welsh furniture makers will make the entire home feel that much more special.
Search online for businesses with a strong reputation for quality goods and services. Keep track of their customer reviews to find the right supplier to make your home as perfect as you imagined it to be.
Final Thoughts
Having reminders of the things that matter most to you is what makes a house truly become a home. And with the warmth and joy that a few of these Welsh-inspired ideas can provide for you, there’s no limit to what you can create within your home.
