If you’re about to become a homeowner for the first time, chances are, you’ll have spent countless hours drooling over home decor pictures from Pinterest. Well, here’s some good news for you: it’s easy to build your very own Pinterest-worthy home, by incorporating a few key items from Singapore’s homegrown interior design and furniture store, Hipvan.

#2: Wall frames

Don’t have budget to buy artwork after emptying your bank account on your downpayment and monthly installments? Don’t fret – simply adorn your rooms with framed pictures instead!
Pro-tip: If you’re aiming for a more sophisticated (instead of cheery) look, stick to black and white pictures.

#4: Hanging mirrors

If you haven’t heard, standing mirrors and traditionally mounted mirrors are so 2016. For a more updated look, go for these gorgeous hanging mirrors which will look great in the hallway, above the dresser, or in the toilet.

#5: Concrete lamps

Going for the industrial look? Instead of sticking to your boring and standard issue ceiling lights, we recommend switching it up with concrete pendant lamps instead. That’s how you commit to a theme!

#7: Dining benches

Round dining tables might be better for fengshui, but in our (possibly biased) opinion, rectangular tables and benches are much more aesthetically pleasing.
