5 Easy Tips to Update your Living Room





Feeling weary of the same old rug or decor? I understand completely. There's a certain delight in refreshing a space with new pieces, and the best part is, you can often find these treasures right in your own home!


Living rooms hold a special place in my heart when it comes to home updates. They're vital for daily life. After a long day, there's nothing better than unwinding in the family room with my kids. That's why I always aim to keep it as inviting and vibrant as possible for our enjoyment.


Here are 5 easy tips to update your living room!


1.Rearrange Furniture and Decor- I enjoy rearranging my space to refresh its appearance. It's important to think creatively and devise a new layout that is both aesthetically pleasing and practical for you and your family. Start by altering smaller items in the room to gauge the impact, then progress to larger pieces. For instance, I often swap out living room elements like table lamps and accessories with items from other areas of the house.


2.Repurpose Your Furniture- I used to repurpose furniture for a living and I loved giving outdated pieces a new life. So, if you have an old item lingering in your living space and you're not keen on replacing it, consider repurposing it with a fresh coat of paint or new upholstery fabric. It can make a tremendous difference!


3. Bring the Outdoors in- Having plants in my space has always brought me peace. I cherish being outdoors with my children, and introducing elements of nature into our home adds to its coziness. Incorporating plants into my clients' designs is also something I enjoy; they oxygenate our living spaces and contribute to our happiness. Plants can be hung, placed on coffee tables, or arranged on mantles.


4. Throw Blankets and Pillows- I frequently mention that incorporating decor, throw blankets, and pillows truly is the finishing touch! They round out the space and impart that quintessential feeling of home.


5. Updating Your Walls- Regardless of the option selected, merely painting the walls or applying textured wallpaper can transform the look and feel of a room. I enjoy refreshing spaces with new paint colors and wallpapers. Wallpapers are available in a variety of styles and textures, and they can be conveniently removed if you opt for the peel-and-stick variety.


These are just 5 Simple Tips that you can implement to create an updated fresh look to your living space!
