Decoration without money
Change the furniture place: almost all women like to do it and it is that many times these reforms, like moving lamps and carpets, gives a new meaning to a room.
Combine color and textures: it is not necessary to paint the entire house; it is enough to take into account certain details of color and texture that can change the perception of space in an incredible way. These different touches can come through curtains, rugs, folders or tablecloths, the frames of a painting, an ornament, and the cushions on an armchair… Against earth and sand tones, for example, you can use mature yellows and botanical greens; the combination of olive green with salmon orange also works.
Organize and… Throw! according to psychologists, organizing and throwing away what is useless, or what we do not use, is a very healthy action for our spirit. Take advantage of that need that you feel today to change your environment and throw away everything that is unnecessary in your house, prioritizing aesthetic and utility criteria. Clearing the place provides a different air, clears the environment and renews energy.
Change the lighting: light is a decisive element as it attenuates some colors and highlights others. A punctual light enhances an area. If you place, for example, your favorite chair on a warm-colored rug and illuminate it with a spot light, you will have created a space where there was none before.
Renew the look of furniture: If you replace the hardware, give a piece of furniture a polish or change the frame of a picture or mirror, you will achieve a different look in the room. It also works to replace the covers and upholstery of your chairs, armchairs and sofa with others with new colors and patterns. In particular, the frames may be more important than is believed, replacing a classic one with another smooth one made of dark wood, may vary not only its relationship with the environment, but also the reading of the work of art itself.
