You can display your favorite decorative items on an open shelving unit that showcases them. If you’re into photography and have tons of camera equipment, display some of the lenses and camera accessories on your open shelving units. You can print out your work and display them on the shelves with some frames that also speak your tastes and personalities. There are indefinite ways to showcase your interests, so get creative.

Bonus tips: Hop on interior design trends

Here’s the thing about interior design trends: they only last for a certain period of time. Which means you should be aware that this will take a lot of effort and money. The smartest way to follow trends is to only incorporate accent pieces that are easily replaceable to avoid the hassle of redesigning the entire bedroom every time a trend goes out of style.
