Looking to give your home a high-end look with a very limited budget?
W e know how it feels when you want to do so much to your home but a tight decorating budget always pulls you down. But, it won’t happen anymore. We have just the right suggestions for you to decorate your home to perfection and the good news is that these tweaks will not cost you much! So, let’s cut to the chase and get your home decorated!
We know what you are thinking - ‘Hardware improvement is expensive’. Well, that’s true if you are not making smart decisions. Buying bulk hardware pieces is definitely not the way to go. Yes, these are inexpensive but the quality of material used in the pieces is not just what you want to have in your rooms. You can spend a little more money (without breaking the bank) and bring home some ‘expensive-looking’ pieces for your home. Make sure you look for them in smaller hardware stores and flea markets before you make a purchase anywhere else. You can also check them out in antique shops as well.
When you are decorating the interiors of your home, you will have to pay attention to details. You can make your house look high-end in a very effective way using crown molding. With this, you can make any room look aesthetically improved giving it an elegant appearance. The ceiling and the walls can be made to look together using a relatively inexpensive crown molding technique. You can be using any width for the trim, but we highly recommend choosing the widest trim you can afford. You can even go for other molding techniques like high baseboard, ceiling beams, columns, ceiling medallions, etc.
Windows are an important component of any room’s interior and must be tweaked to make it more elegant. If your windows look unfinished and cheap, you can always go ahead and get your windows treated. Window treatments are readily available in the market and you can choose from a wide range of treatments as well. You should be making smart choices while buying window treatment and bring home the ones that have high-quality material like natural silk, linen or cotton. You can even try bamboo shades for your windows. Whatever you choose, you must make sure it matches the style you are trying to give your best home interiors.
This is going to be one of the toughest decisions you will have to make for your home renovation contractor. While decorating a room, you will have to make sure the color you choose matches with that of the rest of the objects and furniture present in it. Once you know the right pain combinations for your room, you can start painting. Another great idea you can implement is painting the doors black. Black is a classy color that can make any object look expensive. You can do that to your windows as well without burning a hole in your pockets.
Pillows in any room can help serve two main purposes. First is the more obvious - it makes the furniture more comfortable to sit and relax for your guests. Second, pillows can punch-up your furniture’s elegance. This is important because furniture is a very dominant object in any room as it takes space. While decorating the interiors of any room, you should choose pillows for important furniture like chairs and sofas. You should go for large sizes (22-inch) for your pillows to make your furniture more comfortable. Pillows give a very plush feel to the interior and you should not miss out on this small change.
When it comes to buying major furniture pieces for your home, there is no other alternative to buying high-quality and expensive items. You might be tempted to buy cheaper furniture as well. You should not be doing that since it will cost you more in the end. The furniture tends to look cheap and have unpredictable durability. You don’t want your guests to become a victim to your furniture’s malfunction, do you?
If you hired a contractor to get the lighting fixtures at your house done, chances are the contractor installed the same lights at most of the houses he has built. There’s no point in having similar lights when they can be used to reflect your personality. You should go for designer light fixtures to add more elegance to your interior. Don’t just go for a chandelier straightaway. Maybe you don’t even need it in the first place. You don’t need to pay a high-end price for a high-end look anymore. You can check out some of the popular flea markets around your place and we are sure you will hit a store that has unique pieces for your home improvement at reasonable prices.
Although carpeting will give your floor a warm and soft touch, it just doesn’t match the elegance of a solid, gleaming floor made up of hardwood. We highly recommend purchasing hardwood for your floor as it will be an investment you will never regret. Hardwoods have amazing durability and will have virtually zero cost of maintenance. This will provide you a better ROI if you decide to sell your house in the future. Well, there’s another alternative to hardwoods that you can consider. You can go for laminate as well. But, make sure you go for the best laminate to ensure higher durability.
We highly recommend accessorizing your home to give an amazing touch to your interiors. Although accessorizing can make you extend your budget a little, it will definitely make your interiors look out of the world. Even if you are on a budget crunch, you can successfully accessorize your house using gold picture frames, mirrors, and many well-designed, modern pieces of furniture that are easily available in any flea market around the city.
