Redecorating projects are fun in theory, but the actual process can be stressful and time-consuming. Here are a few affordable ways to transform your living space without much effort at all.
- Hang an eclectic collection on the walls. While the gallery wall is a tried-and-true favorite, you can create some visual interest in your space by hanging a collection of just about anything on the walls. Try a few vintage silver serving trays from the local thrift store, or use old postcards from places where you’ve traveled.
- Change the color scheme. Rely on textiles to give your space an instant makeover. Changing the color scheme of the pillows on your bed or the textiles in your bathroom can have a major impact on the feel of the room.
- Add plants. Not only do plants freshen the air in your home, they also add a pop of color and visual interest that can’t be replicated outside of nature. Choose low-light plants meant for indoor spaces.
- Invest in a large rug. Choose a large, colorful rug that draws your eye to the center of the room.
