We all want our properties to look fantastic, but sometimes we don’t quite have the means to match our ideas of the perfect home interior. Hiring an interior designer would be your best choice, obviously. However, if that is absolutely not possible, budget- wise, that doesn’t have to be a problem! There are lots of simple tricks and tips anyone can use to create a beautiful, expensive looking home interior on a budget. Here are some of the best:
Use Neutral Colors In Your Home Interior
Understated neutral colors give a more sophisticated look than a brighter interior palette in most cases, and they allow you to change the room with ease, as you change. If you’re a fan of bright colors, you can add them in with accessories, but a neutral canvas is what you need if you want to be able to switch up your style sometimes, without a huge bill.
Minimalism
Take a page out of minimalism’s book and use the less is more approach in your home interior. This doesn’t mean that you have to get rid of everything but the kitchen sink, it just means that you should only bring things into your home that are beautiful, useful or both. Spend more money on the things that matter, instead of spreading your cash too thin buying useless and unnecessary accessories.
Clean, Polish and Repair
One of the simplest ways to get your home interior looking like a palace is to clean, restore and repair the good stuff you already have. For example, if you have an expensive stone floor, arrange a limestone floor repair and clean, and you will completely transform the look of the rooms it’s in. Or, if you have a really nice sofa, but it’s looking a bit worn, instead of buying new, clean it, patch up any tears, or even recover it with fabulous new fabric for an affordable fix that will really change up your home interiors. Did you know All About interiors makes custom slipcovers? You can have a whole new look to your sofa with a fraction of the cost of a new one.
Seek Less Expensive Alternatives
So, you’ve seen the most beautiful designer chair on Pinterest, but it comes with a huge price tag, what do you do? Option one, blow your renovation budget on it and have a beautiful chair in a less than inspiring home, or you could look for a similar chair made by a more affordable company. Option two is use lots of stylish furniture for a fraction of the price at discount stores. You may want to also check out antique and thrift stores, which often have high-quality designer-esque pieces at a fraction of the price. You might even get lucky and find the real thing!
Add Layers
To get an expensive look in your home, you need to add little touches that will stop it looking like a student dorm. Throws, rugs, books, artwork and candles can all be purchased at relatively low prices, but when you add them into the mix here and there, they can make a huge difference to the way your home feels. They are also a good way of bringing in some color too!
