This is a simple concept to quickly assess your home and decorating, or even your photography and art. It is a simple rule of proportion, merely let your eye divide one-third, two thirds to keep things a bit more interesting. The rule works for home decor, color and composition balance.
What is the 3-5-7 rule in decorating?
The Rule of Three is a great way to start decorating using odd numbers and it can be applied anywhere. But a larger number like 5 or 7 works equally well and is useful when decorating large areas such as a long mantel, console table, or wall. And oddly enough, (haha, see what I did there?) odd numbers create symmetry!

What is the best order to decorate a house in?
To keep the process fun and stress-free, try not to focus on more than two or three rooms at a time. For instance, you might start with your bedroom, living room, and kitchen. Then, as time goes by, you can work on the bonus room, guest bathroom, and other spaces that aren’t used as frequently.Nov 8, 2022
