You might find yourself admiring beautiful homes I link here and elsewhere.. like myself... Start thinking loudly, be creative, brainstorm and ask yourself:
- Can I create a similar ambiance? {Yes, you can.. Make a list of things you admire.}
- How much money can I set aside for this upgrade? {big or small it does not matter - use your creativity and take small steps}
Once you have your budget and wish list:
- Start with a fresh coat of paint. Maybe the exact color scheme you fell in love might just work in your own room.
- Try to rearrange, upholster or get a stylish sofa cover for your existing furniture before you start shopping. Revamp your room with additional seating options - chairs, recliners, ottomans, benches, bean bags etc.,
- Revisit your accessories - lamps, rugs, curtains, pillows, wall decor, vases etc., Bargain hunt and replace the ones that don't match your style anymore. Move some of them around.
- Purge unused, unwanted, out of date and out of style things from the room. Keep your room clutter-free.
- Keep overall functionality of the room as is or even better.
Depending on your budget, it might be practical to do a few changes at a time. Which is not a bad idea - you could pause and enjoy every little upgrade you make towards looking like the homes you admire. Finally, enjoy your upgrade!
