Turn Your Home into a Star with Film-inspired Flair


Film-inspired Décor Ideas


If you’re searching for some inspiration for decorating your home, consider adding some movie magic! A movie scene doesn’t have to just be on the silver screen – you can bring it to life in your own home. Take a look at these pitches for special effects you can add to your living space to make it seem like it came straight out of a fan favorite film.

If you love the glitz and enchantment of the Roaring Twenties, or are simply seeking to dress your home to impress, incorporate vintage glam décor similar to the 2013 adaptation of “The Great Gatsby.” To do so, display gold and crystal accents throughout your home, such as golden curtains, pillows and lamps, and crystal vases. Add vintage mirrors for a dash of sophistication (and opportunities to check that you are dressed to the nines). Top off your lavish décor with glittering chandeliers, which will dazzle your guests and leave you feeling like Jay Gatsby.

Go Greek Like “Mamma Mia!”

My my, how could one resist the calming and dreamy Greek chic style of the musical “Mamma Mia!” starring Meryl Streep? To achieve this look, your décor should focus on white and blue with a few pops of bright colors. Possible accessories include clear and colored glassware and glazed pottery.

For furnishings, add wooden tables, stools and chairs, but overall, less is more to keep rooms feeling spacious (and to give you sufficient room to be a dancing queen or king while singing ABBA songs).

If a simple style with whimsical flair appeals to you, consider adopting décor that’s reminiscent of the Audrey Hepburn classic, “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” Go lightly on the décor like Holly Golightly by keeping the amount of knickknacks to a minimum, using neutral-colored furniture, paint and wallpaper, and limiting the number of colorful accents. Instead of vibrant colors, opt for eccentric furnishings to liven up your rooms like Holly, who had wooden crates serving as coffee tables and an animal print rug in her apartment.

By reviving your home with one of these Hollywood makeovers, you’ll make your home a major star in the story of your life. After all – as another classic film has taught us – there’s no place like home!
