Create a great centrepiece
Grab some fruit and place it in a glass bowl to pull together a creative centrepiece.
Mount your television
Ditch entertainment centres and mount flat-screen televisions on a wall. This will also free up floor space.
Add trim
Crown moulding and trim give any room a more modern and elegant feel.
Paint trim
If you already have trim, paint it a different colour. Avoid white. Instead, opt for something that’s bright and will add height to a room (like yellow).
Display your favourite objects
Don’t hide the things you love (like bags or shoes), showcase them! Hang bags from hooks on a wall or line shoes up in front of your bed.
Create your own headboard
All you need is a piece of wood, some foam and an artfully patterned piece of material.
Buy a pot rack
If you’ve invested in pots and pans, display them by hanging them on a stylish pot rack.
Cover wood chairs
If you’re tired of sliding on to wood chairs for dinner, create unique seat cushions. All you need is some foam, cool fabric and a staple gun. Place the foam on the seat, pull the fabric over and staple it to the underside of the chair.
Decorate with decals
Decals are a great non-committal way to decorate any space.
Create a collage
Any empty wall can be updated with a collage of your favourite things or photos. Ask friends to come over to help you create it.
Revitalize an old table
Use a sander to sand it down then add a fresh coat of varnish or paint to give it new life.
