Cheap Ways to Freshen a Room

Submitted by: Kira @ Tip Hero  07/22/2010 1:15 PM
 
If you're looking for some simple ways to freshen up a space, you need not break the bank. You'd be surprised at how little changes can make a big difference. Check out some of these tips from Young House Love for making your space look cleaner, more polished and fresher.

  • Paint your trim with a crisp white semi-gloss paint to make a space feel more polished, dimensional and crisp. A clean white trim will frame your space, like artwork.

  • Switch up your outlet covers and wall switchplates. Trade in the old ones that you may have inherited in bad shape for clean white or stainless steel ones. Use whatever fits your decor.

  • Hang breezy white (or neutral) curtains from ceiling to floor. This will make your room immediately feel more airy and inviting.

  • Grab a few punchy new pillows to give your seating area a fresh new look. If you have a neutral room, try picking pillows with pops of color.
