We’ve all spent more time at home this year than we could have ever planned to so there’s no surprise so many of us are looking to improve and renovate our homes. Changing up the look of your home to become Pinterest or Instagram worthy doesn’t have to break the bank either. We’ve got 4 amount of ways you can easily improve your home.
7 Ways To Easily Improve Your Home
Change your flooring
If you are tired of looking at a scruffy looking carpet then why not think about changing your flooring to wood or hardwood flooring to completely modernise your room. If you’re happy with your wall decor a switch-up in your flooring could be just what you need. Wooden flooring helps to make rooms look larger and more modern whilst also creating a lighter and brighter feel to the room. Of course, hardwood flooring is much easier to keep clean than carpet too!
Paint your walls
Walls can get grubby, scraped, and bumped, especially if the whole family has been home continuously. You’ll be amazed what a lick of paint will do on your walls, and with the right technique, you can transform them with ease.
One great way to add a personal touch to your walls is by using stencils. If you’re not sure how to paint with stencils, don’t worry! There are plenty of online tutorials and resources available to guide you through the process step-by-step. With a little practice, you’ll be able to create beautiful, customised designs that will make your walls truly stand out.
Even if you do paint your room the same colour you’ll notice a huge difference just refreshing the paint. If you’re not looking to paint (because I get it, painting is boring) then why not choose a wallpaper to revive your walls?
Rearrange your furniture
Not wanting to spend a penny but still want to improve your home? Why not look at moving some of your furniture around? This can also help shift the mood of your home too.
If you are moving pieces of furniture around your house then have a look into the Chinese art of Fung Shui to maximise the energy in every room in your home. If you have paint lying around too you can also upcycle pieces of furniture to give them a new lease of life.
Accessorise To Improve Your Home
Another way to really improve your home is to accessorise with grace. I say with grace as you want to mindfully accessorise. That means to style your room instead of hoarding or cluttering.
I like to use Pinterest for inspiration especially when it comes to styling coffee tables or bookshelves. Minimalism works really well when accessorising, however, do accessorise to suit your style and taste so that you are happy with how it looks.
At the end of the day, you know your own home and it’s super important that you feel comfortable and safe when you shut your front door.
Add Indoor Plants
Indoor plants are an easy and affordable way to refresh any room. Not only do they add a touch of greenery and life to your home, but they also improve air quality, creating a healthier indoor environment. Plants like succulents, spider plants, and peace lilies are low-maintenance options that add beauty and calm to your space.
Upgrade Lighting Fixtures
Changing your lighting can transform the look and feel of any room. Swap outdated fixtures for modern ones, or add a statement light to make the space more visually appealing. Consider adjustable lighting, which can create different moods in your home depending on the occasion, from bright and energising during the day to warm and cozy in the evening.
Add a Statement Rug
A statement rug can pull a room together and add warmth and texture to your floors, especially if you have wood or tile. Choose a design that complements your decor style, whether it’s a bold pattern for a modern look or a subtle, neutral tone for a minimalist vibe. Rugs not only make rooms feel cozier but can also serve as an artistic focal point.
Improving your home doesn’t have to be expensive, you can work within whatever your budget is, many of these tips you can do yourself and have an extremely positive and instant impact on your home. Most of all, have fun with your home and let your personality shine through.
