So, we have compiled a list of minimalist decorations and things homeowners should get if they are looking to make their homes aesthetically pleasing and insta-worthy at the same time.

#1 Fairy lights

This is an inexpensive way to instantly spruce up a certain space in your home. You could hang it around a mirror like the image above, on the wall or behind sheer curtains for a soft look. We recommend adjusting the lights to a warmer setting. When you want to just relax at home, turn off all the lights and leave only the fairy lights for a romantic and cosier vibe.

Get fairy lights ($27.99) at Typo.

#2 Sheer curtains

Choose white sheer curtains over blackout curtains for the living room especially for those who want to achieve a minimalist-style home. Let light flow in through the sheer curtains for a soft look and brighten every corner in your home! It's also one of the ways to create a Korean-style home.

#3 Green plants

You always hear people saying keep all your clutter hidden for a neat and minimalist space but having some things out as decorations will work too! The ultimate Pinterest-worthy or Instagram-worthy decoration is a magazine rack which you can mount to the wall or place on the floor or table. Then, place a few magazines with aesthetically pleasing covers such as Kinfolk or CEREAL in the rack.

#5 Round mirror

Go for a round mirror instead of the usual square or rectangle mirrors. Place it near your front door so that you can use it to check your outfit before heading out and it also helps to create the illusion of a bigger house. If having a mirror in your living room isn't your cup of tea, hang it in your bathroom instead. We recommend choosing a round mirror with a gold rim to add a touch of elegance to your home.

#6 Simple homeware

Instead of plates, bowls, jars and more in different colours and designs, remember consistency is key. We recommend white, beige or light neutral coloured homeware to fit into the minimalist theme of your home. Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication so keep that in mind!

#7 Plain bedsheets

Stay away from patterned bedsheets to avoid making your bedroom look childish and messy. Plain bedsheets is the way to go for an insta-worthy bedroom! The trick is to choose bedsheets in the same colour but of different shades to spruce up your bedroom.
