Changing up the look and feel of your home can be inexpensive and simple. Consider the many options that don't require a big investment of time and money. Clever solutions are within reach and can be implemented right away. We've selected 20 of them to help you get started.
RUGS AND CARPETS
Rugs and carpets add plushness and visual interest to your floorscape.
SHELVES
Books, photographs, candles, mirrors and vases are only some of the various items you can use to decorate your shelves.
Switch up the item placements to change the look of the space.
WALLPAPERS
Installing wallpaper with floral or geometric motifs in your living area is a surefire way to add some oomph.
WALL COLOURS
Go bold and paint a wall (or a part of it) in your favourite hue or pick a colour that inspires a certain mood optimistic, happy, creative, romantic and so on.
MIRRORS
Mirrored surfaces play with your visual perception while their frames complement your interior style. Vintage or contemporary, their shapes, materials and colours can be changed quickly without the need to transform everything else in a room.
SOFT ACCESSORIES
Introducing textiles or fabrics is a good way to create a cosy atmosphere -materials like linen, velvet, cotton, silk, wool or suede as cushions, carpets or chair coverings.
CURTAINS
A new decorative (and functional) item can completely change the look of a room. Curtains are a good example. Sheer models can have a subtle impact and invite natural light inside, while darker versions create a more masculine and intimate feeling.
