Decorating Your Conservatory

Do you have room in your garden for a conservatory? Conservatories make wonderful additions to a property. They work fabulously as pool houses, little garden houses or even guest houses.

First choose a style that you like and decorate it accordingly.

Some popular styles include:

Garden:

Given that conservatories are in the garden, many people choose to decorate it accordingly. Some tips include, choosing botanical prints for walls and fabrics. Greens in front of a white background tend to keep things light and natural. An informal display of pots gives the room that extra touch of garden-messiness without being messy. To keep your room clutter free you can choose a sleek glass table with hidden storage space.

Nautical:

If you are decorating a pool house or boat house you might choose a nautical theme. This would involve incorporating lots of blues and whites, and decorating the walls with items like paddles, oars and paintings of boats. Big white cushioned couches with blue blankets and hints of red around the room will create the perfect nautical effect.

Floral:

If your garden is more roses than it is radishes you might want to incorporate more colour than just green or blue against a white background. Of course you're going to have bouquets of cut flowers everywhere. With all of that colour it might be nice to offset it with wooden walls or furniture. You could go for something dark or light, or even something rustic. Quilts make good throws in those environments.

Elegant:

Some people choose to use their conservatory for upscale cocktail parties. If that's the case you're best off keeping things as simple as possible with a few elegant touches here and there. Glass paned walls will give the room a stylish feel. A grand piano, graceful chandelier and handsome chairs will make the room classic and warm.

Studios:

Of course if you are someone who doesn't mind clutter, a conservatory might be the perfect place for you to store all of your things. You can convert it into a little studio where you can paint, pot, design or unwind. Maybe you're not an artist at all but like to have a place where you can recluse and enjoy a few moments of silence. If this description seems more you, your conservatory might be a mix-match of everything.

The style of your conservatory will not only depend on your tastes but also what you plan on doing with the room. You don't have to decide right away, just make it comfy and see how it is most often being used, then you can go ahead and decorate.
