Budget Design: 5 Ways to Refresh an Interior at a Minimal Cost
To update the interior of the house, it is enough to make a few striking changes to it, without wasting a lot of effort and time for expensive repairs. There are 5 simple ideas that will help you quickly and without any hassle refresh the design of your home.
Collage on a blank wall
The easiest way to decorate an empty wall is to collect a collage of your favorite photos on it. Photos of any shape and size are suitable, the main thing is to use them without frames. Arrange the pictures in random order or pre-think of a suitable shape for them. It can be, for example, a heart or a circle. After that, fix the prepared photos using double-sided tape.
To make the composition look complete, decorate it with a luminous garland. Also for creating a collage, children's drawings, posters and covers of retro magazines are suitable.
Carpet Drawings
An old wall or floor carpet is easy to update with fabric spray paint. You will also need a baking dish that will become a stencil. Just put it on the carpet and gently apply the paint.
You can make a stencil yourself, cutting it out of thick paper. Please note that spray paint should only be applied outdoors or in a well-ventilated area, after wearing a respirator.
Old "new" rack
You can update the old rack by simply flipping it from horizontal to vertical or vice versa. In addition, try to cover old furniture with spray paint, wallpaper, beautiful paper or fabric. Decor can be applied on the entire surface of the product or on its individual parts, for example, on shelves or around the entire outer perimeter of the rack.
Plant transplant
Pots are not just containers for growing domestic flowers. They can become full-fledged elements of the interior, but their style and color should harmoniously fit into the design of the house. To do this, replace the old pots with new ones by purchasing products from the same collection.
You can even make a full-fledged pottery composition by arranging flowers, for example, on a vertical floor stand. Choosing this option do not forget that transplanting is a great stress for plants. Therefore, you can do it only in the spring.
More books
If you have a lot of books at home, and among them there are several copies in beautiful covers, do not hide them in closed cabinets. Instead, decorate books with a shelf, chest of drawers, coffee table, or other suitable surface. The main thing is to choose copies whose covers harmoniously fit into the color scheme of the room.
If you have filled a whole bookcase for a long time, try to arrange books in it not by topic or alphabet, but by the color of their roots. Try to make smooth transitions from lighter to darker shades and vice versa.
