Simple Design Tips To Give Your Home A Fresh New Look

Deck the Walls with The Power of Paint - Coating one room or even a single wall in a vibrant and compelling color will breathe new life into your home. Paint is one of the most budget-friendly ways to break up the spaces in a room and can give any room a fresh new look. Whether you'd like to define areas in a large room or simply add visual interest to bare walls, paint can provide desirable outcomes for both.

WALLPAPER POP OF PATTERN - Using wall paper in your home’s design doesn’t have to be complicated or outdated. To easily catch the eye, add bold wallpaper to an entire room, an accent wall, or even the backs of your cabinets and bookshelves. There are many designs of wallpaper to choose from to add the perfect dose of flair for a bare wall.

RUNNER REFRESHER- Though hallways are often the most trafficked space in the house, they are rarely at the top of the decorating to-do list. Take the area from basic to memorable with a bold runner—a graphic design underfoot is the easiest way to spice up the space. Roll out style in your hallway with a cushy, new carpet runner.

than a pillow…or two or three. These little packages deliver a wallop of pleasing geometry, color and texture that is disproportionate to their size. Refresh the look you have by layering pillows of different shapes and sizes into your seats.

Turn on the Lights adding Plenty of Lamps - A big part of the holiday season’s appeal is its prolonged light show. Now that the Christmas lights have left your living room, your lighting scheme can suddenly seem uneventful. Get that soft glow back with a mix of different types of lighting and translate the holiday charm to the everyday by using portable lamps to illuminate any remaining dark or dreary areas in your house. The point is to ease your tasks and also create a more uplifting atmosphere. The most effective way to achieve this goal is to create a balance between different kinds of lighting in your rooms by adding table lamps and floor lamps and both upward and downward light. Incorporate table and floor lamps into those forgotten corners for inviting ambient light.

Double Duty Throws - Don’t forget to toss a bright throw into the mix during these cold winter months—it’s an opportunity to spread additional color over your perches along with some warmth. With winter just settling in, luxurious and stylish throws can be both practical and chic. Drape one over a solid or neutral sofa or chair to add a little flair and to have on hand for those days that give you the chills.

THE TEA TOWEL TRICK - The kitchen’s answer to the throw pillow is most definitely the tea towel. Grab a few to add color and pattern to the stove, then swap out these affordable little accessories as the seasons (or your moods) change.

Add A Touch of Nature with Fresh Flowers - The tradition of lacing doors and mantels with greenery was born from the notion that some of the most beautiful and restorative interior accents are found in nature. For the new year, replace the pine and poinsettia with generous groupings of just one type of fresh flower. Flowers and plants are great to have in the house for many reasons because they not only beautify your home, but they also help in providing a pleasant and cleansing smell to the air in your house.
