Top Tips for a Quick Home Makeover

After you?ve lived in your home for a while, you may desire to make some changes. These changes don?t have to break your budget. In fact, using these tips for a quick home makeover may affect the change you want without spending much money at all.

Many homes have wall-to-wall carpeting and it can get boring. Liven up any room in your home by adding rugs. These can be any shape or size. You can use rugs to help define space and inject personality in a room. Quite often rugs can be used as an inspirational point when redecorating a room.

Change out the fixtures in your home. This can run into quite a bit of money depending upon which fixtures you choose. Consider polished silver or bronze in rooms with darker tones. Cabinet handles and new faucets can also alter the look of your kitchen or bathroom. A great choice for the kitchen is to use a high pouring faucet which allows you more room in your sink.

Rearrange the furniture or switch out pieces from other rooms in your home. Think about how furniture in your bedroom could be repurposed in your living room. For instance, an armoire could function as a television cabinet which would give your living room an entirely different focus. Of course, you?d want to be sure the television cabinet could also provide the same function in your bedroom.

Paint your walls. Nothing updates a stale room more than a fresh new color of paint. You may want to create a focal wall by using a darker shade or complement of the current color. Place an elegant mirror on the wall. Then situate two comfy chairs, a nice table and a table lamp to create a small conversation area.

You can make your room look entirely different by changing out the molding along the ceiling. Crown molding can add height to the ceiling. Other molding can be used to create frames in which to hang favorite paintings. You can also add chair rails and wainscoting to change the look of a room.

If you love how comfortable your furniture is but want a new look, you may want to consider a removable cover rather than reupholstering it. There are a myriad of companies offering stylish covers for nearly every type of furniture. Choosing this option will also cost considerably less and your furniture can be changed back when you?re ready for it again. Adding different throw pillows can also change the look of a couch or chair.

These top tips for a quick home makeover are relatively easy and some of them can be inexpensive. You can also talk to a general contractor and remove non-load bearing walls to open up the space available, but that will cost considerably more and won?t be as quick. The choice, of course, is yours.
