Decorating Tips for Couples Moving in Together
Moving in with your partner is an exciting milestone, but blending different styles can be challenging. Here are five tips to help you create a harmonious home:
1. Establish a Colour Palette 🎨: Choose three to four hues to create a cohesive look and keep your decor unified.
2. Find Common Ground 🌟: Identify shared preferences, like warm palettes or wooden furniture, to kick off your joint decorating journey.
3. Keep Main Areas Neutral ⚖️: A neutral base allows for personal touches with statement pieces that reflect your individual styles.
4. Incorporate Contrasting Elements 🌺🪵: Balance dark and light elements, and mix textures to add visual interest and incorporate both of your tastes.
5. Make Decisions Together 🗣️🤝: Communicate and compromise on major decor choices to ensure both of you feel at home.
Enjoy your time together blending your different styles
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
