From Amusing to Advanced: New Ideas for Cleaning

If your home hasn't been redecorated in a while, you might be getting a little bored with its appearance. Luckily, it is easy to refresh the décor and add a new look without spending too much money. Here are some easy and cost-effective ways to refresh the interior of your home.

Install New Lighting Fixtures

Changing the lighting fixtures in your home is easy to do, doesn't cost a lot of money, and makes a large impact. Whether you are replacing the floor or table lamps or actually changing the wired lighting fixtures, you can transform your home's décor into an entirely new style. If you have an old brass fixture in your dining room, why not replace it with a modern copper one? This can provide a different finish of metal that matches new dining room décor, while also providing efficient light in that space.

Change Your Headboard

Another easy home improvement that can change the aesthetics is to change the headboard on your bed. If you don't have a regular bed frame that already comes with a headboard, then this should be a good option for you. You would be surprised by what a large impact just having a new headboard can make. You can try adding a contemporary look to your bedroom with a tufted headboard, while also providing more comfort. There are easy DIY headboard projects that help to save money as well.

Have Your Carpets Professionally Cleaned

While replacing your carpeting might seem like something you want to do, it isn't necessary just to refresh your interior. Instead of spending money on replacing them, simply hire a professional carpet cleaning company. They can remove most or all of the stains on your carpeting and make it look nearly brand new. For any remaining stains, just cover them with some decorative area rugs and your home will look bright, new, and very clean.

Add More Texture and Pattern

A good way to give your home a brand new look without spending a lot of money is to add more decorative elements, but do so by thinking about patterns and textures. Don't just buy new lamps or throw pillows, but really focus on the patterns you have. In the summer, go for brighter colours, stripes, and images like pineapples and other fruit. If it is spring, flowers are the best way to get more colour and pattern into your home's décor.
