Redecorate Your Home
You can redecorate your home and give it a new look without breaking the bank or making too many changes. Read on.
Here are some quick redecorating tips to refresh your home. Remember, unless you experiment and keep moving things around, your home will start looking outdated. Change keeps your home, your outlook, and you, refreshed!
Paint
You don't need to paint all the walls to overhaul a look. Even painting a single wall in another colour can transform the place. Painting it a bold colour can make it stand out, but be very careful when selecting what colour you want the wall to be. Ensure that it will not clash with the other walls. A good idea is to paint the wall in a room that is most directly seen as soon as you enter, in a light or bright and sunny shade. Yellow is a great option to add instant cheer. Alternatively, you can also paint it a few shades lighter than the other walls, to give a feeling of space and to make the room look brighter, but not drastically changed.
Accessories
Change the colour scheme of the room. This can be fairly easy if you go about it in an organized manner. Select one colour for a certain room and pick out accessories in that colour. A blue bedspread, blue curtain cords and blue dried flowers, placed strategically in the room, can unite the colour scheme beautifully. White is always a good option, and looks especially pretty in the summer. Pick up a nice white tablecloth, paint a wall white, place a white runner on the coffee table with a few white mats on the side tables, invest in a few white cushions, and you're set! (Don't forget the white flowers.)
Frames
Who says you can only frame paintings or photographs? If you have some lovely fabric, consider framing it and hanging it on a wall. Very often, old saris are almost unwearable. But they do have lovely borders. Get creative, and put the borders to good use. Use them alone or attach them to another fabric, get it framed and hang it on the wall. Delicate white lace fabric looks delicate and lovely on walls. Be careful when selecting a frame and don't scrimp if the fabric is rare, very old or very expensive. Of course, if you're using something run-of-the-mill, which can also look enchating, pair it with an economical frame which you don't mind discarding it after a couple of years when its time to redecorate again. This way, you can match your wall accessories with the others too!
Vases
Pick up a nice tall glass vase or bowl, so you can fill it up to match the room. To add a maroon accent, you could fill up the bowls with red rajma beans, or use moong beans if you want to give a touch of green. Place the bowl on the center table, fill it up with water, and float a few artificial petals in the colours you want. Or, fill up the glassware with coloured water to match the room.
