Cheap and Easy Decoration Ideas to Fall in Love with Your Home Again

Home is where the heart is. However, sometimes looking at that same old plant pot and that boring weathered chair can just get a bit tedious and mundane. There are many ways to reinvigorate your home even if you may feel economically restricted to do so. With our creative ideas for making changes to your interior you will rekindle your love affair with home through adding color to your everyday life once more, all for a small price that doesn’t burn a drastic hole in your wallet.

Bold cushions

Bright colors are a great way to make a room really stand out. So add something more playful and creative to your cushions. Don’t be afraid of patterns! Island floral or tropical palm prints are really in this summer. Mix and match patterns and textures to create a bohemian feel, or go ultra modern with bold block colors.

One wall transformation

To get an instant new look in a room that you have grown un-fond of, why not try the one wall transformation. Adding a bold splash of color to one wall can really revive a room. Paint can be expensive but as it’s a small surface area it is much more affordable. If you paint the wall behind the sofa or bed it creates a focus point whilst adding a joyful dash of fun to a previously dull room. The new change of colors will give you ideas on how to transform the rest of the room with small adjustments to the color scheme.

Frames and canvases

Small but bold frames on your bedside table will draw attention and brighten up a bedside table – also adding a change to your morning routine of turning off the dreaded alarm. Another tip for enhancing your room is a large painting above the bed. Canvases are relatively cheap and if you have left over paint why not splatter some on and get creative! If you can barely draw a stick man no worries as you can pick up painted canvases for less pennies than you think. Hunt around – car-boot sales, vintage fairs, and local art shows. It is a wise investment that can be passed on for generations.

Brighten up the center

Insert color to your dining experiences through simple changes to your centerpieces. Swap that dreary vase with something more exciting like a colorful metallic pot. Modernize and cheer up dreary interior. Place your fruit bowl as the centerpiece of the table works both practically and visually in promoting a healthier living. Or you can really make your centerpieces the star of the show with extravagant flowers. Buying a new bouquet every few days is expensive though, but the duplicate versions of flowers available now are unbelievably realistic, and relatively cheap, offering a long lasting service to your home.

Soften up your bathroom

Bathrooms can feel very sterile and are usually smaller than the rest of the rooms in the house leading them to often get neglected. Soften up cold bathrooms with fluffy bathmats, or fun toilet seats which will brighten up the day for all the family. Also reduce the clinical feel of a bathroom by adding warmth through bamboo accessories or a brightly decorated scheme. Add a lick of light colored paint or a colorful blind to brighten up your bathroom walls and candles enhancing relaxation when you just want some ‘me time’.
