Hello,

Are you bored of your current room/home/office space? Looking for a change? But not having to buy new furniture or spend a bomb? Then go on reading the below ideas:

For most of us, replacing all of your furniture room by room isn’t feasible. That doesn’t mean you can’t make simple, easy and often-inexpensive changes to rooms in your home. Here are some easy ways to change the look of any room without buying any new furniture.

Give your windows something new to wear. Ready-to-hang window treatments are easy to install and yield dramatic results. Windows can be dressed to perfectly suit your style and taste. You can go bold and graphic with geometric curtain panels, or beachy with gauzy white sheers, or minimalist with bamboo shades—the options are endless.

 

Place flowers with a flourish for an instant breath of fresh air in any room. Or, if you prefer, potted ferns, wreaths, and potpourri can also make a statement. The focal point of the display doesn’t have to be only the greenery— give thought to the vase, as well.

 

A simple area rug can dramatically change the feel of a room. Dress up with an Oriental rug, or lighten up a dark room with a light colored rug, or add colors through a funky patterned rug.

 

Brighten up with new lighting. Proper lighting can truly bring a room to life.  A poorly lit room looks small, dark and cramped, while a brightly lit room appears open, airy and welcoming. Strategically place a couple tall floor lamps in dark corners, Layer this lighting with lamps on side tables, or you can replace all those outdated ceiling fixtures with the stunning modern masterpieces. All this makes your room feel welcoming and cozy.

 

One word: Paint. “Paint it” is the most common suggestion you’ll hear to update a room. It seems obvious but a clean coat of paint can take a room from drab to fab. Consider adding a punch of color on an accent wall, or just touch up your trim with a clean coat of white paint. If your home already has a fresh coat of paint, then look to other things that could use a touch-up.  Maybe paint your ceiling a cool blue, or bring new life to an outdated piece of furniture with a new coat of paint. A deep clean and a new coat of paint can go a long way when it comes to revamping our rooms without major renovations.

 

Install decorative display shelves. You’ll solve storage and decorating issues at the same time. If you collect shells, matchbooks, or family photos, don’t hide them away. Give each their own space to shine, and give your room a new vibe in the process. Mirrors when placed opposite windows reflect light into the room and make the room seem more open.

 

Wallpaper an accent wall. Consider covering the main wall of your bedroom with a peaceful pattern, or consider a living room update by covering one wall with a funky geometric patterned paper.

 

Last but not the least. Add colorful cushions. Cushions are significant decorating accessories that make your space look stylish and versatile and are light on your budget of home décor. If you lead a very casual/informal lifestyle, funky/jazzy designs suit you the best. Then create a good mix of colorful and decorative cushions in unusual shapes and create a delightful atmosphere.

Hope these ideas help you in bringing a little change in your home or space.

There are no hard and fast laws for organizing or creating space for your home office. But there are some rough principles that guide us to ensure a great result every time. Consider this a foundation for developing your own quirky, creative, rule-breaking intuition. Here are top 3 tips for creating an attractive and practical workspace.

1. Location and Lighting.

Location and adequate amount of natural light or artificial lighting are very important for this space. You’ll likely spend many hours in your home office; so don’t stuff yourself in a tiny space where there is no view or window. Spaces filled with light help reduce stress by reminding us of the world outside. An office flooded by natural light and constructed from carefully chosen details and natural colors will reset your minds every time you look up from the computer screen.

2. Invest in a great chair.

A comfortable office chair is of utmost importance for those spending a lot of time at a desk, so make sure you choose one that is both supporting and aesthetically pleasing.

3. Choose homey accessories.

Decorating your home office with personal items, jovial colors and flowers bring a feeling of comfort that you rarely get outside the home. Accessories like a pretty mug for a pencil holder, trendy notepads, and sticky notes, and a decorative wastebasket can fill up the space giving it a more special touch. Wrap your bulletin board in a gorgeous fabric, hang inspirational prints and art on the walls, or showcase decorative greenery that exudes a sense of pure joy. Also, Organization is key to starting every workday fresh and helps you manage your time. Using baskets, boxes and colorful organizers for files and documents could not only save you valuable time but also create the order you need.

Whatever type of work you do, it’s easy to combine professionalism and elegant details in your home office design. I hope these home office ideas have given you some inspiration to get you started!

You’ve bought the art, and now comes the tricky bit—how do you display it? How high is too high? How many should you combine in a collage to create a unique but coherent statement? How secure can your art be without destroying your wall with hideously heavy nails? Our take: it’s less science and more art. Sure, there’s the 57″ rule (A work of art should have its center 57 inches off the floor—average human eye level), and the fact that you should probably start in the middle and then work around it, all the while treating the collage as one picture, not many. And we do advice you to use two hooks per artwork so they stay level. However, the fact of the matter remains that it’s really all up to you, so have fun with it (with some sense of proportion, of course): mix disparate—or objects—images together, go ceiling to floor, and switch art around every few weeks. Whatever you do, the ruler stays your best friend, and so does a strapping someone who holds up the art while you have that long, decisive think
