Sometimes decorating your home can be costly and time-consuming. However, everyone loves to change their surroundings to achieve a fresh new look and feel in their home. Here are three ways to decorate your home using items you already own.
- Rearrange – Rearranging your space is a great way to make your space look different. Start off by splitting your sectional and placing some parts opposite a wall or change the location of your side tables. If you have a lot of artwork on your walls, look at moving paintings and pictures from one area of your home to another.
- Apply a coat of paint – You can update your furniture by simply applying a new coat of paint in a color that is different to your current look or theme. Another simple change is to cover most of your items in white paint. Look at painting your tea carts, end tables, and plant stands in white. Make your bookshelves stand out by painting the back of your bookshelves a brighter color. Look at shades like yellow, gray, navy or white.
Accent colors – Look at your space and identify an accent color that you can use as trim for your lampshades, throw pillows or curtain tie backs. Most often samples can be bought at fabric stores at a discount price and often these small samples will be sufficient for this project.
