What is the first time people want to see when they step foot into your house? Where is the place you and your family spend the majority of your waking hours? If you answered the living room then you’ll know how important it is to create a lively, fun, and vibrant space for everyone to enjoy. But, even if you’ve created the warmest and bespoke living space, you may find it’s not hard to find yourself getting bored of the same fall walls. It’s only natural to find things getting stale the more you get used to it. So how do you stop the heart of your home from getting stale? Well, maybe it’s time for a change. These can be big expensive changes, but not everyone has that kind of budget. It doesn’t have to cost you a fortune, in fact, you can actually make some very simple changes to spruce up your living room and watch the new life suddenly breathed into your tired old lounge. Here are just a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing:
New Blinds
Your windows are one of the most important features in your living room, they allow in all that natural light to light up the room and fill it with life. Nobody likes sitting in a dark room. However, what you cover your windows up with is also a very important feature. As with all features in the home, your blinds change the look, feel, and dynamic of the rooms. There is a big difference in window treatments, from office blinds to draped curtains. How much light do you want to let in? How will they fit in with the aesthetic of the room? These are all very important questions work thinking about, ones that could make all the difference!
Change The Layout
You don’t even have to spend a dime here. It is quite possibly one of the simplest ways to completely change things up in your living room. All you need to do here is simply move around your furniture, giving the room a whole new look you won’t even be able to recognize it as the same room. You’ve probably thought to yourself that that table would look better over there or putting the rug in the center would open up the room. You may even find it gives you more space. You can have fun with this one and experiment. When guests see it they may even ask you if you’ve moved houses altogether.
Hanging Artwork
Artwork isn’t just for stuff galleries and pretentious people. Art is for everyone and art brings in so much personality and vibrancy into your home as well as a level of sophistication. There are so many different art styles, colors, and schemes to go for that there’s almost certainly a piece of art that will fit with pretty much any aesthetic. How about getting creative as well and instead of shelling out a fortune on a piece, instead buy some supplies and get the family to paint pieces together. Not only is it an excellent group activity but give your living room that personal touch
