Make a bold statement

Try out these easy tweaks to upgrade your home without major renovations

Don’t have the time, money, or patience for a complete décor overhaul of your home? These simple tricks will make your living space look brand new.

1. Shed and shuffle furniture

Big bulky furniture will make a room look dull and cluttered. Either do away with the big pieces that you don’t really need or rearrange them in a way to make the room look more spacious.

2. Redo the lighting

Lighting plays an important role in changing the way a space looks. A brightly-illuminated room looks more welcoming and bigger. But, mood lighting can relax you. Buy lamps for corners to brighten the room up and also double up as ambient lighting when you need it.

3. Sofa throws and pillows with bold prints

Pillows and sofa throws cost so little but can really spruce your living room up. Pile up a number of pillows and decorate the sofa with throws. Go for bold prints and colours. You can even create a theme. The best part is that they are easily changeable so you can experiment to find out what look you like and what you love.
