1. One can start by incorporating statement vases in unique shapes and bold colours to add visual interest to the space. These vases not only serve as decorative accents but also provide the perfect vessel for displaying fresh flowers or dried botanicals, bringing a touch of nature indoors. (Photo by iStock)

2. Candle stands are another must-have for creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. One can even choose sleek and modern designs that complement the decor style, and opt for scented candles in uplifting fragrances like citrus or lavender to enhance the mood-boosting effect. (Photo by Pinterest)

3. Textiles play a crucial role in adding texture and cosiness to the home. Add layers with throw blankets in luxurious fabrics like cashmere or faux fur, which not only provide warmth but also add a touch of luxury to any seating area or bedroom. (Photo by Khalil Hamra / AP)

4. The small decor pieces elevate the home aesthetic to a whole new mood, hence ignoring the unique collection can be a mistake. Consider incorporating unique sculptures, art prints, or decorative objects that spark joy and creativity. These pieces can serve as conversation starters and personal touches that reflect individual style and personality. (Photo by Gagandeep Dua)
