7 Ways to Refresh Your Home on a Low Budget

By

home-design-budget

There reaches a point for every homeowner when you feel like you are not satisfied with the interior look of you home. Maybe you tried some new wall trends. However, they may no longer excite you or the wall color which you once loved now feels dull and outdated. Regardless of your reasons, there will reach a point where you will feel that you want to spruce up your home with new ideas.

However, at times our budgets don’t go hand in hand with the ideas we have. Luckily, there are plenty of fresh interior updates you can use that will cost you less money. Ensure you incorporate the below tips in your to-do list and you will fall in love with your home once again.

Swap and switch out your throw pillows

You can compare throw pillows in your living room to your makeup. You can change them anytime you want depending on your mood and the season. Switching and swapping the throw pillows will give your lounge area a transformative look.

If you feel like your sitting area is dull and boring, you can add several vibrant throw pillows to provide the room with lively and uplifting vibes. Buying throw pillows of different vibrant colors will only cost you several dollars, and the result will be a living room that is warm and welcoming.

Change your flooring

Another way of ensuring that you give your home a fresh new look at a low budget is by getting yourself affordable laminate flooring.  The type of floor you use can enhance or become a deal-breaker for your home. If you are tight on funds, it would be ideal to use laminate flooring from Floors Direct instead of expensive real wood flooring.

Laminate flooring is durable, and it is more scratch-resistant. Hence, you will not need to worry about your floor getting scratched by your kids, dogs or even high heels. Also, with laminate flooring, you won’t have to worry about stains and messes as the floor is easy to clean and maintain.

Also, you can get to choose from a wide variety of options for your floor. You can choose from different color hues and patterns to match with the interior decoration of any room in your home.

Rearrange your furniture

Now, we all know that furniture is essential if you want to achieve the right design. Now, you don’t need to buy a whole set of furniture if you are on a low budget. You can play around with the furniture you have by merely rearranging it. Whether it is the bedroom, sitting room or even the kitchen, rearranging furniture is a sure way of having a fresh new home makeover without having to spend a dime.

Paint

You will be surprised at what a simple coat of paint can do to your home. Even though you are not interested in painting the entire walls in your home, you can start by painting maybe two walls in your living room, the kitchen cabinets, the bathroom or even the front door. Simple color paints might be just what you need to give your home that new and fresh look you are yearning for.

Less is more

It is said that less is more. This can also be applied in your home. The good thing with this method is that you will not need to spend a dollar. All you need to do is to throw or give away some of the items you no longer need in your home.

If you have plants, random décor or books on the shelves you can take them away to give the room a fresh feel. If you have young ones around removing some of the things will prevent their nosy hands from bumping into them.

Add some greenery to the room

Plants can liven up any room. You don’t need to be a plant lover to fill up your home with green plants. The tip here is to look for plants which will grow well in your home environment. It is not that difficult to take care of indoor plants.

The main thing to do is to ensure that you give your plants enough water and sunlight. Also, you should ensure that the plants are safe for children and plants. There are plants which cause allergies when touched, and I bet you would not want that for your kids or pets.

Change your bedroom

Your bed is the focal point in your bedroom.  Therefore, if you are looking for ways to update your bedroom design, you should start by changing your beddings. You can use different colors for the linens and throw pillows.

You can also add a bedside mat to spruce things up a little bit. Also, if your bed is located in the centre, you can move it to the far end to give the room a new look. If you have a closet full of clothes that you no longer need, you can donate them out to create more space. You can also buy a bedroom mirror that will reflect the sun rays that come in through the window.

You can refresh the look and feel of your home even if you are on a tight budget. Use the above budget-friendly ideas to reinvent and give your home a new look.
