Looking for ways to glam up your pad without breaking the bank?
Here are some affordable design hacks that will spruce up nearly any space and help stretch your design dollars.
Look for portable design
Look for decor items you can swap in and swap out, whether it means being able to move a decor item from room to room as a refresh or to change out with the seasons. Bring in color and texture using affordable elements such as toss pillows.
Bring in affordable art
When it comes to art, even an inexpensive print can often make a bold statement, with the right image and frame.
Incorporate greenery
From succulents to artificial florals and blooms, greenery can help to add both color and texture to nearly any space.
Let there be light
Light not only helps make spaces feel warm and cozy, it can also help add a touch of glam. Brass remains one of the hottest finishes right now. Looking for an interesting way to integrate lighting into your space? Consider a long pendant in an entryway, in a bedroom or over a bedside table.
Incorporate mirrors
Mirrors are less expensive than artwork. Looking for a way to be creative? Consider hanging artwork in a series or grid.
Sit in style
Consider affordable seating options such as a stool or bench instead of larger items such as a chair.
Add small but functional accents
This can range from a side table that creates a reading nook to a table lamp that adds much-needed light to a dark corner. Not sure what to choose? Consider a selection with modern, timeless lines.
Explore affordable neutral elements such as area rugs
Often area rugs add a certain finish to a space, and they don’t have to break the bank.
Create individual vignettes
Small, affordable but attractive items can look great and aesthetically appealing when placed in a grouping.
