Is it time for a home refresh? You might think improving your home’s decor will be difficult and expensive. Whether you’re looking to personalize your home, or give it a little update, there are simple ways to do just that without spending too much money.

6 Ideas for Your Home Refresh
Discover your style
When decorating any room, make sure it you do it according to your personal preferences and tastes. This is important, because sometimes, we don’t take the time to actually think about the style we like before buying furniture and accessories.
As a result, we find ourselves feeling uncomfortable in our environment. That’s why you must make sure you check out different styles, and use that as a guide to choose elements you love. This is the best way to personalize your decor, so that you’ll be happy and comfortable with your interior design.
And, of course, don’t forget to add a little of your own creativity and imagination to your favorite design style to give your home refresh your own personal touch.
Add soft textures
The simplest details in a room can have a significant impact, but it does take a bit of skill is to put them together in a cohesive way.
Think about all of those little touches, and not just the big furniture pieces, while you’re decorating. For instance, striped design cushions and blankets are a tried-and-true method when it comes to adding texture and warmth to a room. Bottom line: if you love a cozy, inviting look, don’t skimp on texture.
Rugs
Attractive and high-quality floors are the foundation of any beautiful interior. Rugs and carpets not only cover the floor and add color, you can even layer them to add more interest. Learn how to choose the correct rug size for your room. Then think about shape, color, pattern, and texture–there are plenty of ways to use rugs to enhance the style of your home. From vintage to modern, there’s a perfect rug for every room.
Lighting
The same goes for lighting: the type of lighting, the color of lighting, and the style of lighting are important. Vary your lighting with overhead lights and a lovely floor lamp to create a reading nook. [Also read: How to Select Lighting for Each Room of Your Home]
Together with good lighting, you can combine glittering objects and mirrors to create the impression of a larger space. You can place mirrors in places where you lack light, or place them behind wall lamps and table lamps so that they cast a beautiful reflection.
Paintings and wall decor
Walls shouldn’t be boring. Brighten up your space with artwork you love. This is a wonderful opportunity to personalize your home. Think about the wall space you have to fill, the colors in your home, and the style of your home when choosing wall art.
Add plants
Flowers and plants enhance the appearance of any home. Indoor flowers, palm trees, ferns, and trendy succulents are all low-maintenance and long-lasting options. Put some sun-loving tropical potted plants on the window sills, or in other well-lit areas of your home.
There are so many reasons to add plants to your space. Indoor plants clean the air, add life to your house, and are simple to care for. With a little TLC, you can reap the benefits.
