In the living room, you can spruce up your coffee table with some fresh paint and a geometric stencil design. Paint a variety of pretty frames in a vibrant hue and use them to hang your favorite pictures or artwork. Dress up a bookshelf by adding a few accessories and plants, and maybe even paint it a distinct color that goes with your overall design. Or, if your room needs a subtle pop of color, try painting the walls a nice, warm shade.
In the kitchen, upgrade the tired cabinets with a simple new coat of paint or try adding wallpaper to the backsplash for an eye-catching twist. Sprinkle metallic dot stickers around the counter or try a colorful mosaic tile pattern. Hang some simple shelves with some neat storage to complete the style.
For the bedroom, a stylish headboard is a great way to update the space. Instead of buying a new headboard, whip up one yourself by upholstering foam board with fabric. You can also transform the bedroom with some statement wall art. Find some beautiful prints or posters and frame them – and don’t forget to add a splash of color!
A bathroom upgrade adds a pop of personality to the room. Paint the vanity a vibrant, cheery hue and add a colorful patterned rug for a breezy tropical feel. Try striping the walls for a sleek modern look or use a simple stencil design to frame the mirror.
Want to upgrade outdoors as well? Build a planter box and fill it with colorful flowers or paint the front door in a bold color to give your house added curb appeal. Dress up a patio or deck with some mix and match chairs or DIY a firepit for cozy nights outside.
And lastly, for the entryway, add a console table to hold keys or mail. Gussy up the wall with a bright mural or patterned wallpaper and hang a large mirror to complete the look. Put up a coat rack or a wall hook with a basket for extra storage.
