~For Redecorating Your Rooms~
Screaming Meme's Tips For Redecorating On A Budget....
When it comes to redecorating a room, fabric is the quickest and easiest way to achieve a new look....For a simple pick-me-up in the living room, add a few comfy new pillows.... Use a bold pattern you love, a splash of your favorite color....or both.
Another way to go is to create a calming monochromatic look using texture for visual interest. Start by choosing a rich fabric...nubby, tweedy chenille or plush velvet are great to work with...then add some depth with accessories...you might introduce contrast with woven wicker or rattan...or more glamour with shimmery silks or satins.
Whatever your style is, you'll find that one of the easiest ways to tie the room together is by repeating the upholstery or pillow fabric at the windows....
Before you discard a piece of furniture, ask yourself whether it could be painted, covered or used in a different way...
Painting still has to be the most powerful and inexpensive way to get a new look...
Hang a sign inside...An old ad sign or one your make yourself can give a fun, fresh look to your space...
Outside chairs...Don't overlook an old wicker chair or aged garden seat...try it in a room for a fresh and different look...
Sideboards...Treat your sideboard as a restaurant would....showing off your silverware, china and fresh fruit as the basis of an ever-changing display which you can add to and take away from regularly.
Spread candles throughout your home to give it a cozy feel. Scented candles also make for a relaxing and pleasant atmosphere....
Spice up kitchens by hanging pots on the wall.... This will free up cabinets and also give the room a new decorative touch....
A small room can be made to feel larger by painting large stripes or daring colors on the walls....
Decorating with white is a good way to avoid color decisions.... white is soothing color, too.... Be sure to add different textures....and ground the room with black or brown to keep the room anchored....
