It is not always practical to redecorate your house, or even just one room in your house, as a complete overhaul can amount to hundreds or even thousands of pounds. Instead, I have come up with a few ways that you might be able to apply to your furniture that, alongside a lick of paint on the walls, could see you with fresh décor with minimal amount of effort or money spent.
My first idea is to go vintage. A vintage bedroom also looks very feminine and appealing so to do this I would suggest simply going for a faded white effect on wooden furniture and even your bedstead. Simply apply paint and gently lift it off when dry with sandpaper.
A few decorations such as bundles of dry flowers and clusters of antique ornaments with heaps of candles will help finish off an easy to create but new look. You could also apply this vintage look to a large dresser or a coffee table in your living room. A great way to get that extra vintage look to a room is to hang up some old fashioned curtains. This is not only inviting, but it adds a cosy feeling to a room.
Another inexpensive way of changing the look of a room is to use throws and slipcovers. You can change a dark sofa to a bright, light sofa that can change the whole dynamic of a room. Simply cover the sofa in its new colour and recover your cushions with a mixture of patterns and textures.
If you’re tired of your dining room, why not try reupholstering your seats for a quick and easy change. A new dinner set with place mats and gargantuan wine glasses all laid out like a show home also makes a dining room look impressive, although it might add to the amount of dusting you might need to do!
Simple accessorising furnishings can create a new style for a room; pick items carefully and ensure they are placed well. Some people tend to throw things down and hope that they look nice but attention to detail is key. Be imaginative!
