3 Tips for Hanging Wall Decor

Posted by Cassandra Birdd on

Details

When you want to add an attractive and personal touch to the home, hanging wall decor around the space allows you to accent the best features. However, you must hang these items correctly so that they are cohesive and do not damage the walls. Here are several strategies for finding the perfect placement.

How Should You Position Wall Decor?

1. Frame It Correctly

While wall sculptures can stand alone, prints and canvases look best with a frame. As you are looking for the perfect frame, choose options that match the art and other features of the room. For example, choose thin, straight-edged frames for a minimalist look, or something wider and more ornate to fit elegant, classical furniture. Finally, try not to let the frame overpower the artwork; thicker and more elaborate frames look best on larger and more intricate wall decor.

2. Plan the Placement

The type of wall decor that you have should help determine its location in the home. For instance, personal art might go in the bedroom, while something you want to display to visitors can stay in the living room. Avoid hanging items in the kitchen because the humidity can damage them.

After picking a room, find an open stretch of wall that leaves some space around the edges of your piece. If you are hanging multiple items, they should balance with each other and the furniture. Try to keep art at eye level; the center of the piece should be about 57 inches off the floor.

3. Mark the Location

When placing a hook or nail for wall decor, remember that the center or top of the piece may not line up with the nail. Flip the art over and find the wire or catch, and measure how far it is from the top edge. Then use that measurement to determine where to place the nail. To make this easier, you can cut out a piece of paper with the same dimensions as the art, then mark the location of the catch on the paper. Move the paper around until you like the placement, tape it in place, then nail through the mark for the best results.

3 Tips for Giving the Perfect Gifts

Posted by Cassandra Birdd on

Finding the perfect present for a loved one can be challenging, especially if they are the type of person who has everything they need. However, with some careful planning before the event, you can visit a gift shop and get them something they will love. Below are several strategies to help you shop for someone special. 

How Can You Master the Art of Gift Giving?

1. Listen & Observe

If a birthday, anniversary, or holiday is approaching, pay close attention to the person that you want to buy a gift for. Listen closely when engaging in casual conversation, as they may provide hints about something that they need or want. Furthermore, consider going shopping with the person to see what catches their eye in various gift shops and other stores. By picking up on subtle clues and using them to find a thoughtful gift, you show that you care about the recipient and pay attention to them. 

2. Avoid Giving a Hint

While self-improvement gifts may seem like an excellent, thoughtful idea onOnalaska Gift Shopthe surface, they can send a rude message to the person receiving the item.

Avoid anything that might send a hint the person needs to change, such as exercise equipment, diet books, or educational resources. The only exception to this rule is when the receiver is someone you know well, and they explicitly say they want a certain item.

Instead, visit a gift shop and look for items that your recipient can use daily without sending a message. If the person is religious, consider a notebook or checkbook cover that has a passage from Scripture. Alternatively, finding a piece of home decor that matches their home's design provides a lasting reminder of your appreciation.

3. Buy Food

If you aren't certain that you can find something your intended recipient will want to keep for a long period, a consumable gift is always an excellent option. Splurge on something they would not necessarily buy themselves. For example, if your loved one enjoys barbecuing meats and cooking for the family, consider a spread of specialty barbecue sauces or dip mixes so that they can customize the meals. Alternatively, if they have a sweet tooth, opt for locally made candies that they can share with the family.

When you need help shopping for a special person in your life, visit Treehouse Gift & Home in Onalaska, WI. This Black Friday, you’ll find deals you won’t get anywhere else! This gift shop carries an expansive selection of home decor, artwork, faith-based products, holiday merchandise, and present options for recipients of all ages.

Pantone has announced their PANTONE® COLOR OF THE YEAR 2021

This year, they actually choose two colors! You will find various decor items in these two colors at Treehouse Gift & Home.  From gray vases to yellow florals, we can help you decorate in style!  Come see the front table for spring to see creative way to bring in these colors of hope and strength.

ABOUT PANTONE COLOR OF THE YEAR

For over 20 years, Pantone’s Color of the Year has influenced product development and purchasing decisions in multiple industries, including fashion, home furnishings, and industrial design, as well as product packaging and graphic design.

PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray + PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating

A marriage of color conveying a message of strength and hopefulness that is both enduring and uplifting.

More about the colors:

PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray + PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating, two independent colors that highlight how different elements come together to support one another, best express the mood for Pantone Color of the Year 2021. Practical and rock solid but at the same time warming and optimistic, the union of PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray + PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating is one of strength and positivity. It is a story of color that encapsulates deeper feelings of thoughtfulness with the promise of something sunny and friendly.

A message of happiness supported by fortitude, the combination of PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray + PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating is aspirational and gives us hope. We need to feel that everything is going to get brighter – this is essential to the human spirit.

As people look for ways to fortify themselves with energy, clarity, and hope to overcome the continuing uncertainty, spirited and emboldening shades satisfy our quest for vitality. PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating is a bright and cheerful yellow sparkling with vivacity, a warming yellow shade imbued with solar power. PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray is emblematic of solid and dependable elements which are everlasting and provide a firm foundation. The colors of pebbles on the beach and natural elements whose weathered appearance highlights an ability to stand the test of time, Ultimate Gray quietly assures, encouraging feelings of composure, steadiness and resilience.
