Refreshing your home might be just the ticket to that get that new and energized feeling at home that we crave after a certain period of time. The good news is refreshing a room in your home doesn’t have to break the bank, and small changes can go a long way. Giving rooms in your home a new look without spending a lot of money is achievable, so find out how by following these 6 tips on refreshing your home.
Reupholster Furniture
Reupholstering your furniture with a new fabric can breathe new life into it, and make it look like a completely different piece of furniture for a fraction of the price of buying new. With furniture that looks like new, your room is automatically refreshed.
Add Plants
Adding plants is not a significant change, yet it might be the perfect touch-up to give the room of your choice a new life. There’s something about bringing the outdoors inside that makes us feel relaxed and at peace.
Swap out Throw Pillows
Swapping out your old throw pillows for new ones is an inexpensive way to refresh a room. When you get that hankering for a change, replacing your throw pillows is a good start. Perhaps make it a priority to buy new pillows seasonally, so that in the future you have different sets to display throughout the year.
New Fixtures and Hardware
Buying new fixtures and hardware is another relatively inexpensive way to update a room, and your kitchen is a great room to start. Although it’s not quite the kitchen renovation you might want to do, changing your fixtures and hardware in the kitchen (or bathrooms) is a nice change from the norm.
Declutter
Decluttering will give your home a new sense of purpose. By getting rid of the dead weight, you can start fresh. One of the many benefits of decluttering is that it makes your home feel larger and more open, and you can donate items that you’re not using anymore so other families can use them. If you do plan on using items during a different season, put them into storage.
Mirror Opposite Windows
It’s no secret that getting as much natural light as possible can do wonders for a room, so doing everything in your power to let it in is a great way to refresh a room. Strategically place a mirror opposite a window, where the sun shines in.
