Pinterest Home Trends for 2018

-
Pinterest has released a list of Top Trends for 2018. They give the top trends for several different categories according to pins last year. Per this list, the Home category grew 75% in 2017. I'm not surprised. I'm always pinning project ideas, big and small. It also says people who pin spend 27% more than people who don't. Go figure! There are projects I wouldn't have done if I didn't see them on Pinterest.

Resort-Inspired Style

Why go to the spa when you can create it at home?

 

Mixed Metallics

Mixing metallics can be fun and create an eclectic feel. Mix that brass and chrome. No more worrying about your light fixtures matching the faucet and handles in your space.
 

Hello, Terrazzo

A popular tile from the 70's is coming back.


The Fifth Wall

 More people are adding texture to the ceiling. Whether it be paint, beams, or tile, take advantage of the extra wall.


Bone Inlay

This look gives a unique global flair. This will definitely be a piece your guests are sure to talk about.


Herringbone

 This zigzag pattern makes a statement! It's a popular modern pattern used on floors and walls.


Statement Doors

I have always loved seeing houses with colorful doors. I was so excited to finally be able to paint my own front door red. Even changing the interior color of the door is growing. Most often that color is black or gray.


Patterned Plants

No longer are people just using green plants in their homes. Now the way to go is using plants with a pop of color or unique leaves.


Big Wall Art

Go big or go home as they always says. Large posters or prints are easy ways to fill a blank wall.

 

Neutral Sage

The light green color was a popular search last year. It is being called a neutral now since it pairs well with so many other colors.


I can really get with all these trends. Looks like I have a lot of work to do because I'll take one of each.

Are any of these trends in your home? Are there any you intend to add to your home this year?

Wall Mounted TV and Hiding The Cords

-

We mounted the loft TV on the wall last week.  We knew we didn't want those ugly cords connected to the TV to be seen.  I had done a few searches to see what our options were for hiding them.  Turns out, there are several.  My least favorite was the cord cover and I knew that wasn't going to work for me. Here are the pieces we bought from Home Depot.  They are wall plates that allow you to pull the cords through but keep them hidden in the wall. After we figured out where we wanted the holes, using the template in the package, we cut a hole right under the TV mount for the cords coming from the TV.  It made me a little nervous cutting a hole in the wall.  The cords also needed a place to exit at the bottom.  We cut the second hole straight down from the top one, right next to the outlet where the cords would be plugged in. To make it easier to get the dropped cords, we installed the top plate first.  It just goes into the hole and the screws tighten it against

Gray Bathroom Cabinets

From the start, I wanted all the bathroom cabinets to be dark like the master bathroom .  I began my usual search online for more ideas. As I was searching, I came across bathrooms with gray cabinets.  I must say, I love the look. I have seen plenty of gray kitchens but never thought to have the bathroom cabinets gray as well. source   source source   I'm a little torn now.  I like the gray cabinets but with all things, my tastes change, so not sure if I would still like them in a couple years.  If I go this route, it would totally throw a curve into the plan since the walls are already painted.  Gray walls and cabinets would be overload. What do you think about gray cabinets?  Are your cabinets a color you don't see often?

Installing Ikea Lack Shelves

-

I have wanted built-ins somewhere in my home for forever. They look so classic and they are extra spot to house beautiful home decor pieces. I have seen many a hack for turning the Ikea Billy bookcase into built-ins but I kept debating whether I was up for the challenge. Were built-ins too much for me? In my head I wanted something simpler too.  In my searches for DIY built-ins I kept coming across floating shelves. I love the modernness of them. The clean lines. The way they just seem to be coming out of the wall. There were times where I would browse Homegoods and Target seeing all the pretty things I could put on shelves. Alright done. Floating shelves it was. Once I decided on floating shelves, the debate was whether I wanted to build them or just buy them. Building them meant I could make them the exact size I wanted them to be. Buying them meant I would have to just settle for the size they came in. My wall is 90 inches wide and the shelves are only about 75 inches wide so I
