If you're the type who loves being openly expressive, a Bohemian home might be perfect for you. They're always put together in the most unusual ways, full of life, and a load of fun to plan out. So if you feel yourself being swayed, here are some tips to follow.
1. Colour, Colour, Colour

The basis of any Bohemian themed interior is colour. Lots of it. But, if you're afraid a mixture of too many hues will end up looking tacky, then stick to a handful of shades while keeping everything else muted. It won't look as bold, but will still fit the theme.
To feel truly immersed in a Bohemian surrounding, no room should be absent of colour. Feel free to experiment with different shades, even for a space as tranquil as your bedroom. Even adding a variety of coloured throw pillows to your bed will add Bohemian vibes.
2. Mixing Patterns

Prints are another essential aspect of a Bohemian home, so don't be afraid of mixing them together. There's no such thing as overdoing it when it comes to crazy patterns, since it's the core of Bohemian interior.
And if you're willing to go all out, you could even douse your walls in a lovely print, made of vibrant colours. Patterned wallpapers are extremely fun to choose, so this could be a route you might want to consider taking.
3. Vintage Furniture

Bohemian homes are also about culture, so interesting secondhand furniture improves not only the aesthetic, but also the homeliness of your space. Instead of focusing on how the furniture looks, find out if they carry a story behind them when browsing or buying.
When it comes to doing up a Bohemian room, mixing and matching of materials is important too. You could pick out a rustic piece of wooden furniture from the secondhand store, matching it with things like burlap and fringed pillows.
4. Keep Things Cozy

There are two major areas of your home you should keep a particular lookout for. The first is your living room and its sitting area. Make sure it's cozy and comfortable; sofas filled with throw pillows while large cushions litter the floor. Add a patterned carpet and voilà, you've got a beautifully snug area.
Your bed is extremely important as well, since it's going to be your sanctuary. Make sure you love the look and feel of it, and ensure you feel entirely comfortable when using it. We'd suggest getting a canopy bed, where you can escape from the world a bit, and gain some much needed tranquility.
5. Accessories

Once you've settled the general aspects of your home, it's time to touch things up with a few accessories. You main goal here, is to have your accessories tell stories about the people living in your home.
The accessories chosen could be an expression of personality, or even consist of memorabilia you've collected from interesting places and experiences in life. They don't have to necessarily match one another, since the beauty of Bohemian homes lie in how gorgeously disorganized the elements are.
