Your living room is usually the most used area of your home because of its multitude of functions. If you’re wanting to change it up, a major overhaul isn’t necessary! Make a big difference with some of these minor and budget-friendly ideas.
Rethink The Layout
Simply changing the layout of your furniture can result in an entirely new look. A living room is usually centered around an object like a fireplace or TV. Fireplaces can’t be moved ( easily), but if your central object is a TV, take a good look to see if it’s really in the best position and arrange the furniture accordingly.
Paint
Paint has transformative properties. Whether you decide to paint all the walls, a focal wall, above or below the dado, it is one of the most cost-effective ways to give a room a facelift.
Flooring
Flooring doesn’t have to be expensive. If you have worn/stained carpet or damaged tiles, a new floor will work wonders for the room. Carpet can be replaced easily and there is an incredible amount of flooring options to suit all budgets and styles. Modern floor finishes can usually be installed on top of your existing flooring, making it a mess-free option!
Revamp The Furniture
Revamping your existing furniture is eco-friendly and inexpensive. Spending the money on recovering upholstered furniture is a great option if the frame is in good shape and quality. If you are unsure, then a loose cover over a sofa or chair is a good option as well. For a quick fix throw a printed throw over the damaged upholstery.
Accessorize
Accessorizing is the easiest way to refresh any space. Replace your pillows and throws according to season. Adding a patterned rug is another great option for a little something extra.
