13 Touches To Elevate Your Home With Boho Style

Boho style is all about creating a relaxed and comfortable space that reflects your personality and interests.

It’s about making your home your own, and is the perfect style to incorporate into your home, whether you live in a house or an apartment.

If you’re looking to add a touch of boho to your home, these 13 touches will help you elevate your home with boho style.

1. A canopy bed

If you think a canopy bed is only for a princess, think again! This bed design is a perfect way to add a touch of boho to your bedroom.

The canopy adds a bit of visual interest and fills up the wall space, which is great if you don’t have a headboard or if you want to add something to your decor without having to put holes in the wall.

Here, the canopy bed is the focal point of the bedroom and is surrounded by a mix of boho textures and patterns.

2. A hanging chair

A hanging chair is a fun and unexpected way to add boho style to your home.

Hanging chairs are great in living rooms, play rooms, or bedrooms.

You can hang them from the ceiling, like we did here, or purchase a stand to hang it from.

Hanging chairs come in a variety of styles, but I love the boho look of this macrame hanging chair.

It’s so fun and playful and adds a lot of personality to the room.

I paired it with a large, round rug to help define the space and create a cozy spot to read a book or take a nap.

3. A vintage-style rug

A vintage-style rug can be a work of art in and of itself.

While antique rugs can cost a pretty penny, you can find a wide range of new rugs that are made to look like vintage, worn-in pieces.

Look for rugs in muted colors and with a low pile to get the vintage look in a brand new piece.

If you have a lot of neutral colors in your space, a bold, colorful rug can be the perfect way to add a pop of color.

Or, if you have a lot of color in your space, a vintage-style rug in a neutral color palette can be a great way to create balance in your space.

4. A Moroccan pouf

A Moroccan pouf is a versatile piece that can be used as an ottoman or extra seating, and it’s a staple in boho-style spaces.

You can find poufs in a variety of colors and patterns, so choose one that complements your existing decor.

5. A gallery wall

A gallery wall is a great way to fill a space and add a lot of visual interest to a room.

This can be composed of art, photographs, or a mix of both.

You can add to your gallery wall over time, so it grows with your collection of favorite pieces.

If you’re not ready to commit to a gallery wall or don’t want to put a bunch of holes in your wall, you can create a gallery wall on a large piece of paper or cardboard, then hang that up.

This way, you only have to make one hole in your wall.

6. A wall hanging

Wall hangings are a great way to fill up a blank wall and add texture and color to a room.

Whether you prefer a large, macrame piece or a smaller woven hanging, a wall hanging is a must-have accessory for your boho home.

You can even make your own if you’re feeling crafty.

I made the wall hanging you see in the photo above and it was super easy and fun.

There are so many tutorials available online that you can use to create a custom piece for your space.

7. A set of macrame plant hangers

If you’re a plant lover, you can never have too many plants in your home.

But when you start to run out of floor and counter space, the best way to keep your collection growing is to go vertical.

A set of macrame plant hangers can turn any empty corner into a lush, green display.

These plant hangers are a perfect example of how to add visual interest with texture and pattern. And, they come in a set of three!

Pro tip: Make sure you’re using a stud finder to hang your plant hangers securely.

A ceiling hook is a great way to hang plants, but if it’s not anchored to a stud, it won’t be able to support the weight of the plant.

8. A collection of houseplants

No bohemian home would be complete without a collection of houseplants.

Whether you have a green thumb or a black one, you can find a plant to suit your level of expertise.

If you’re new to plant parenthood, start with a snake plant, ZZ plant, or pothos.

If you have a little more experience, a fiddle leaf fig, monstera, or rubber plant are great options.

And if you’re a seasoned plant parent, the sky’s the limit!

9. A reclaimed wood coffee table

A coffee table is the centerpiece of many living rooms. This is a great place to add a touch of boho style to your space.

Look for a coffee table made of reclaimed wood.

The weathered look of the wood adds a boho element to your space, and you can find one in a shape and size that works for your room.

If you already have a coffee table you love, you can also use the idea of a reclaimed wood table to make a reclaimed wood accent wall or a set of reclaimed wood shelves.

10. A set of mismatched throw pillows

No need for the matchy-matchy look in a boho space.

In fact, you’ll often find a combination of colors, patterns, and textures in a single pillow.

If you’re not sure how to mix and match your throw pillows, start with a set like this one from Jungalow.

“Layering a variety of pillows can add so much to a space,” says Justina.

“I love to mix in some solid colors with a variety of patterns and textures.”

11. A collection of baskets

They come in so many shapes, sizes, and colors that you can easily find a basket to fit in with the rest of your decor.

Baskets can be used to add texture to a gallery wall, as a planter, to hide clutter, or just hung on the wall as a beautiful piece of art.

If you have a collection of baskets, consider hanging them in a group on the wall.

For a more curated look, choose baskets in a similar color palette, or for a more eclectic look, mix and match your baskets.

12. A colorful duvet or comforter

The bed is the focal point of most bedrooms, so it’s the perfect place to add some boho touches.

A duvet in a fun, colorful pattern is an easy way to make a statement in your bedroom.

If you’re not a fan of color, a duvet with a neutral pattern or a textured comforter is a great way to add some visual interest without going over the top.

13. A set of sheer curtains

Sheer curtains are a great way to add privacy to your home without sacrificing natural light.

Plus, they add an elegant, breezy vibe to any space.

Try hanging sheer curtains in your living room or bedroom to create a more intimate feel.

You can even layer them with heavier curtains for a more dramatic look.

Conclusion

Here’s a great example of how you can incorporate a bohemian style into a modern home. The living room is filled with clean lines and contemporary furniture, but the rug brings a fun, bohemian vibe. And it works because of the colors. The rug picks up on the color of the wall art and the pillows, so it fits right in.
