Change is good

It's common to get bored with your home interior and want to do a complete revamp, but the cost and budgetary constraints are often a barrier resulting in you putting the project on hold. To help you overcome this, we've outlined some small, cost-effective home decor trends you can follow to create a big impact without the matching price tag.

Install some rugs

Rugs are a great way to transform your home interior, without changing your entire colour scheme. Whether you opt for something cheap and cheerful or prefer a more luxurious and costly alternative, rugs are a fantastic way to decorate your home in the latest seasonal colours. With a focus on sustainability, you can also buy pre-loved rugs allowing you to refresh your interior, while still being environmentally conscious.

Update your lighting

Adding lamps and light fixtures can totally alter the appearance of a room. If you already have lamps, changing the lampshade offers an affordable solution for redesigning your interior. Also, installing dimmer switches and mood lighting will create ambience in your home, helping you relax after the daily grind.

Change your artwork

Different artwork in your home can refresh your interior and give it a completely different style. Depending on how much money you have to spend you can either select some striking feature pieces or even purchase picture frames on a budget and fill these with digital prints. The benefit of installing digital prints is you can regularly change the images so you don't get tired of these.

Use a range of textiles

One of the easiest home decor trends to follow if you want to revive a tired interior is investing in a range of textiles, such as new throws and cushions. Contrasting textiles adds interest and splashes of colour to your home. You can also use the staple gun to reupholster furniture that's become outdated.

Add flowers and other greenery

Bringing nature indoors not only enhances your home decor, but it's also good for filtering the air. Adding plants and flowers to your interior has also proven to be good for mental health, to help lift your mood in conjunction with reducing anxiety.

Reinvent utility decor

Reinventing utility decor is a great way to revamp your home interior. Whether you have a beautiful crystal vase you've inherited or a handshaped metal bowl from your early travels, these are perfect feature pieces for your interior, that double as functional home decor.

Buy some new linen

There's nothing better than going to bed and being enveloped by the fresh scent of new linen. Buying new sheets, pillows and duvet covers can change the colour schemes in your bedrooms without having to break the bank. Which means that you can do this seasonally, so you'll never get tired of the decor in your bedrooms.

Mix and match shapes

Mixing and matching shapes with furniture and accessories will make your room interiors more interesting and add new dimensions to your home decor. From creating a centrepiece to adding a sculpture, seamlessly blending curves, rectangles and other shapes in your home will add a modern touch to the style of your interior.
