When you want to change, the simplest thing you can do - to transform their own apartment. This can be done without leaving the threshold, and without spending a penny.
1. Remove the extra stuff
Over the years we have accumulated a lot of things. Walk through the house and decide what kind of things you no longer need, and with which you are nothing, and can never leave.
The degree of attachment can be checked according to three criteria: functionality, beauty and sentimental value.
Leave the things that are needed in terms of practicality, or tell you about a story, and remove all the others. So you will have clean and shelf space, which can be arranged in a new way, and in the house a little bit of trash diminished.
2. Use items not on purpose
No need to try to place kitchen accessories only in the kitchen, and works of art - in the living room. Beautiful cutting board, for example, can be used as a tray on the side table. And expensive dish that gets you time in five years, you can hang on the wall instead of paintings.
3. use paint
Go through the all the furniture in the room. To transform a space, you can try recolor old boring home furnishings in your favorite color. And if you do not want to change the room so radically, then work out on a photo frame.
4. Oddity - in a prominent place!
We will understand weirdo. Each person is the subject, which is connected with some kind of story. It can be put in a prominent place. Such a thing will make the room more comfortable for you personally, will pique the interest of visitors and add a room personality.
Think what a hobby or passion you apart from the rest. Maybe it's time to be more drawings of the airship on the wall in the living room?
5. Use the book as a stand
Books, stacked, serve as an excellent stand under the sculpture, lamps and flower pots. Use this nifty tool in any room of the house: kitchen, living room and even in the bathroom.
6. Place in bowls of goodies
Take the beautiful plates or bowls, sprinkle them peanuts or candy, put different fruits. Near treats such involuntarily will collect guests.
7. Place all the pictures and photos on one wall
Collect all the pictures and photos that you have from the huge abstract canvases to the smallest. Group them, thoughtful composition. Pick a picture in different formats - vertical, horizontal, square or even round, gallery to get as more dynamic as possible.
Determine the focal center - a picture that will attract attention when entering the room. Find the right wall and place the focal center, and then hang the rest of the web. Alternate with the large and small pictures. Do not spare the place: nothing to worry about if the gallery will occupy the entire wall.
8. Group the books on the shelf by color
You probably have seen this interesting stylistic decision on the beautiful pictures on the Internet. It's time to try it!
9. Place your order in the hallway
In the hallway kept things that will be useful to you in the street: umbrella, scarf, sunglasses. Make the space more organized. Think about how you can add convenience and beauty wardrobe, bedside table, ottoman, which are located in the hallway.
Here are a few ideas.
- Place the bulb in the hallway cozy (its light is much nicer than the ceiling lights).
- Hang a picture and a few extra hooks for clothes.
- Beautiful bucket of garbage will be an excellent storage for recycled paper from the mailbox.
- All small items can be placed on a large tray: a trifle put in a bowl, glasses - in a glass.
10. Surround yourself with inspiration in the bedroom
Leave on the bedside table, only those things that will inspire you in the morning after waking up and before going to bed. Souvenir figurine of your favorite country, picture of a loved one, a beautiful vase of flowers.
And remember that good mood and success always begins at home! A book Emily Henderson and Angelina Borsiks "Style" will help make the usual facilities of your dream house.
