AUTUMN’S TOP 10 “CENTS-IBLE” DECORATING TIPS If you are looking to spruce up a room you are tired of but don't want to invest a lot of money, it is my pleasure to share the following tips to help you do some affordable interior decorating. God bless, Autumn Dunn 1. Rearrange The Furniture Pull the furniture away from the walls and position it at new, more inviting angles, and you will change the look and dimension of your room. 2. Paint An Accent Wall You've always heard "to spruce up a room, paint it." Paint one wall your favorite accent color. The color can be as bold or as subtle as you like. Just make sure the surrounding room complements the color. Now, hang a new piece of art on the wall that has the same or similar colors. You'll be amazed at how often your eye is drawn to that area of the room. 3. Liven Up A Room With Plants Bring nature inside. Plants always add a touch of newness to any room. If you don't have a green thumb, silk plants and trees will do the trick as well. Look through some magazines to get ideas on using plants to decorate. 4. A New Rug Will Soften A Room A new area rug is a great way to soften a room. Find one that complements the room, but also has a touch of jazziness to it. Put it at an angle under a coffee table or dining room table. 5. Make A Framed Picture Collage If you have a few frames that don't look good together, faux finish them. 6. Update Your Bathroom Fittings/Fixtures By coordinating new bathroom fittings with your current fixtures and adding vanity lighting, you can completely change the appearance of your bathroom. 7. A New Stylish Lamp Adds A Touch Of Wow To A Room Light up your room with new lamps. You can mix and match lamp bases and shades for a hip new lighting solution in any room. 8. Faux Finish A Room Faux Finishing a room is a great way to create a totally new look with little expense. Several finishes are available to work in any room. 9. Replace Your Cabinet Hardware New cabinet hardware will improve the look of the kitchen with new pulls and knobs. Plenty of styles are available to help modernize the look of your kitchen. 10. Wallpaper Or Add A Border Depending on the size of your room, wallpapering and adding borders is a great alternative or addition to painting. Several types of wallpaper are available based on where it will be used. |
