Tired of looking at the same old space but don’t have enough money to makeover your entire room? What is in the room is more important than the room itself. With these simple tips, you can change the atmosphere of an entire room. And because they are totally customizable, they are budget friendly as well. Give these tips a try!
1. Plants
Add some green to your stale room to liven it up. If you don’t have a green thumb, fake plants work just as well! Try a fern, flowers, or succulents. Any plants will work!
2. Gallery Walls
Hang up photos and memories of the past on a wall. Include pictures that remind you of your aspirations and inspirations. The wall is an open canvas, and it’s up to you to decide what goes up. Whether you want to reminisce or dream, a gallery wall will definitely evoke thoughts.
3. Updated Items
Just like you are trying to give new life to your room, you can give life to items you already have. Try using paints, fabrics, rope, sequins, etc. to add a decorative touch to old items. Choose patterns that pull from the matching objects from around the room to create a cohesive look.
4. Rugs
A nice rug can significantly change up a room by adding different elements to the floor. It can break up a room by giving different areas of a room a different feel. Loud patterns can work if they stay within the color palette of the room.
5. Pillows
Pillows work as accents for different pieces of furniture. Instead of having pillows that match the sofa, try pillows with different colors and patterns. Pillows can also be added to the back or bottom of chairs for extra cushion. Try different colors, textures, and sizes.
6. Mirrors
Mirrors add fake space to a room- they make rooms look bigger than they actually are. Add a mirror to a room to make your space feel less crowded. Try different shapes and sizes. If you don’t have enough space for a full length mirror, hang a smaller one up.
7. One Weird Item
Finally, have something in your room that will stand out. You can try adding unconventional versions of regular items. For example, the dino planters that are pictured are interesting and also have a practical use. Make something of your own, or search the internet for the perfect weird item. A statement piece in a room is bound to be a conversation starter.
Having an environment that you enjoy will not only make you happier but more productive as well because your surroundings can influence your mood. Instead of feeling stuck in the same boring room, try out these tips for yourself!
