Simple and Easy housewarming decor ideas
1. The Entrance:
Let’s begin housewarming decor ideas with the entrance of your house. As the entrance of your house is the first impression to give to your guests, make it very captivating. You can hang garlands of marigold flowers on the entrance door. Also, hang a beautiful toran or wind chimes to attract positivity into your new home. You can also make lovely rangoli at the entrance with flowers like marigold, lilies, roses, orchids or with rangoli colours. Rangoli has long been associated with festivities and new beginnings! Also, place a welcome board stating the housewarming event, the date and the timings in bold letters to welcome your guests!
2. The Pooja Room:
As every housewarming starts with a pooja, make sure your pooja room is clean and ready to take divine blessings from deities! Place the idols in the centre and bathe them with milk and water. Place all the pooja essentials like kumkum, turmeric, unbroken rice in your silverware. Ornament your pooja thali with flowers and beads. Hang flower garlands as a backdrop and spread flower petals around the deities in the pooja room. You can also place beautiful urlis, brass pots, oil lamps and utensils to decorate your pooja room further.
3. Lighting:
Lighting plays a significant role while decorating for your housewarming. As the sun begins to set, soft lighting will illuminate your new home with its charm and positive aura! You can opt for fairy lights that hang down till the ground creating a magical effect! Also complement fairy lights with elegant wall sconces, pendant lights, paper lanterns and aromatic candles. Candles have the inherent ability to transform any space into a stress-free and blissful ambience!
4. Indoor Plants:
Plants are sustainable ways of ornamenting your home with their sheer natural beauty and charm. Welcome home nature in the form of beautiful planters made in ceramic, terracotta, wood or metal. Go for succulents, jade, peace lily, bamboo plant, money plant, to add a verdant look in your sweet dwelling. Let your personal sanctuary depict an environment friendly space where nature blossoms at its best! Even pot holders like macrame are in vogue and offer a visual appeal to your home during housewarming!
5. Bedding:
Bedding is a significant aspect of your bedrooms, so do not ignore it! Spread new high quality bed sheets in floral prints, solid hues or even abstract patterns, based on your preferences. Fold and place your comforters, duvets and AC quilts meticulously on your cot to add an aesthetic appeal to your bedrooms. Good bedding not only elevates the beauty of your room but also offers a sweet slumber and fresh morning every day!
6. Curtains:
Curtains are long draperies not only adding a visual appeal to your abode but also offering privacy and protecting your home from wind, dust, and rain. Curtains instantly enhance the look and feel of your home, complementing your overall interiors, and bringing a sense of timelessness into your rooms. Go for long sheer curtains touching the floor to give an illusion of bigger rooms with a breadth of fresh air and a burst of colours!
7. Accent Furniture:
Apart from your heavy furniture like bed, sofa, and dining table, for your housewarming accessorise your house with trendy accent furniture such as ottoman pouffe, accent tables in wood, metal and glass, ethnic carved benches and stools, etc. Place these accent furniture aesthetically along with your other furniture and let your visitors get smitten by your decor prowess during your housewarming!

Rugs and carpets instantly add a royal touch to your abode and keep the house noise proof and cosy. Cushion covers in print, solid hues or in embroidery add playfulness to your existing decor. Throws placed on sofas, chairs and even beds offer a picture perfect view to your dwelling. Let your home accessories be a conversation starter among your guests and keep them guessing their original source!
