Every room in your home is worth a conversation. What better way to get people talking than by adding one major statement piece? {And by "major," I mean awesome.}
A statement piece is that one unique item that the eye quickly finds once entering a room. It's not necessarily the focal point of the room, but rather eye-catching. If it's not part of the focal point, be sure that it doesn't distract from the focal point, but it enhances the room as a whole. It's that bold piece that makes a statement about your personal style.
Your "piece" could be a collection of one item - like several of the mercury glass owls you see below, or an every day item doused in bright glossy paint. {I once saw an assortment of old cameras that someone had collected from thrift stores and spray painted them solid glossy colors - it was so unique to the person who made them, yet gave the space that extra something special.} It could be a handmade piece of furniture or something you found at a boutique or an antique fair. Or a wall fixture that draws your eye up, making the room seem larger than life.
Statement pieces are great cause they could be that finishing touch to a room that's been lacking luster, or it could be the jumpstart to the inspiration you've been searching for. These special pieces are meant to tell a story, so have fun with it!
What are your favorite statement pieces in your home? Link up if you've blogged about them!! I'd love to see.
I've been in such a decorate-y mood lately. It generally happens when I need a good change, a new focus.

I need a good change of decor every once in a while - pillows, throws and accessories are so easy to swap out every few months! Have fun changing it up!
