Use of Colors

The Spanish style décor lays stress on warm, earthy colors. The use of deep reds and sunset oranges makes everything look dramatic. Turquoise green, bright accents of blue and, yellow are also common throughout Spanish style interiors. You can mix and match all these colors in furniture coverings, window treatments, art pieces, and wall paints to give a perfect Spanish feel to your home.

Furniture

When it’s about Spanish décor, it really doesn’t matter what type of furniture you use. The only thing important here is, it should be comfortable and casual, unless you are decorating a formal dining space. Do away with formality, and consider low-slung seating arrangements. A mix of chairs and floor pillows should do well. But make sure, the furniture is big enough for the entire family to lounge on.

Use of Greenery

Apart from cacti, large potted plants such as ficus and avocado are quite common in a Spanish style home. You can place several tall trees or plants in key areas such as entryway or within large rooms. It’s also a great idea to hang overflowing planters in windows and adorn outdoor patio with citrus plants.

Tiles

The use of tiles is an important aspect of Spanish homes. Even though, terra cotta is a popular choice, you can also use plaster or metal. Put them on floors, tabletops, and, backsplashes for that traditional Spanish look.

Family Pictures

Perhaps, this is one of the easiest ways to incorporate Spanish flavor to your home. Celebrate your family history with over-sized black and white framed pictures. Entryway or the foyer area is the perfect place to set the mood.

No matter where you live, these tips will help you recreate Spain in your home. Simply add bright colors, comfortable furniture, and, family pictures to get that Spanish feel you want.
