If you are looking forward to spruce up a room that you are tired of, but do not want to invest a lot of money, the following tips will help you do some affordable interior decorating.
Rearrange the furniture. Pull the furniture away from the walls and position it at new, more inviting angles, and you will change the look and dimension of your room.
You’ve always heard "to spruce up a room, paint it." Paint one wall your favorite accent color. The color can be as bold or as subtle as you like. Just make sure the surrounding room complements the color. Now, hang a new piece of art on the wall that has the same or similar colors. You will be amazed at how often your eye is drawn to that area of the room.
Bring nature inside. Plants always add a touch of newness to any room. If you do not have a green thumb, look through some magazines to get ideas on using plants to decorate.
A new area rug is a great way to soften a room. Find one that complements the room, but also has a touch of jazziness to it. Put it at an angle under a coffee table or dining room table.
Make a framed picture collage on the wall.
Update your bathroom fittings/fixtures. By coordinating new bathroom fittings with your current fixtures and adding vanity lighting, you can change the appearance of your bathroom.
Light up your room with new lamps. You can mix and match lamp bases and shades for a new lighting solution in any room,
Replace your cabinet hardware with new pulls and knobs. Plenty of styles are available to help modernize the look of your kitchen.
