5 tips to give your home a much needed makeover

If you think that giving your entire home a makeover is not easy and always costs truckloads of money, then you are mistaken. There are many ways that are not only easy but also quick and help you redo your home in a blink. Here are five such ways, which you can use to decorate your home easily. Let’s go through them to get an idea:
  • Order multipurpose furniture: You can save a substantial amount of money by investing in multipurpose furniture. For instance, you can choose timber desks, which can double up as filing cabinets and have wood cabinet storage. Similarly, you can buy rustic furniture from your local thrift store for a bedside table, dresser, bookshelves or lamp tables.

  • Pep up the dining room: Make your dining area interesting by adding some interesting dining table furniture. For instance, you can buy a sturdy glass wrought iron table with a rotating top with matching chairs. Next, change your regular set of crockery and cutlery, change the table napkins, the salt and pepper shakers and voila! Your dining space will look more inviting than ever.

  • Mirror Mirror on the wall: You can put up large, decorative mirrors on your walls either in the living room or in the dining space. This will make your rooms look bigger and prettier than before. If your budget is limited, go for plain mirrors and paint the edges with acrylic paint with metallic finish and see the change.

  • Change the wallpaper: Sometimes all it takes to give your home a makeover is changing the wallpaper. So, go to your nearest store and buy a wallpaper of your choice. Choosing the right kind of wallpaper will make your rooms look spacious. Alternately, you can also experiment with two or more wallpapers in the same room to give it a totally different look.

  • The vintage touch: Give a vintage touch to your rooms by adding in some rustic furniture. For instance, take an old ladder and convert it into a bookshelf; use old travelling suitcases instead of the usual cabinet storage; paint old trunks and use it as bedside lamp tables etc.

  2. Too often in the retail world, we see people lean on the mattress with their hand, then lay down... on their back! Statistically, most people sleep on their side, so it is amazing to see so many people testing mattresses on their back. Regardless, you will not be one these sudden-back-sleepers in the showroom after reading this. Make sure to take the few minutes to test the mattress in the position you sleep in while on your mattress at home. (Need a pillow? Ask for one, even a semi-qualified salesperson will gladly offer one to help make your testing experience more realistic). kenworth
