6 tips and tricks to transform your home

You don’t always need to spend lots of money or time to give your room a new lease of life. Here are some quick tips and tricks to get you started:

• Do a deep clean and get rid of the clutter - not only will this make you feel like you have a new home, but it can reduce stress levels and will allow you to enjoy the space.

• Change up the bed linen - this will immediately transform the whole look of your room. Re-accessorise by incorporating different cushions and throws using warm tones for those colder months and cool tones throughout spring and summer.

• Rearrange artwork - a clever way to bring a whole new look and feel to a room. Swap in artwork from a different area of the home and use this as a basis to add new colours and textures in your decor items.

• Lighting - incorporating the right lighting is such an important element of design. Decide how you want the space to feel. A variety of different light sources can help adapt the mood you’re trying to achieve. Table and floor lamps will help to create warmth and provide a relaxing atmosphere.

• Style your bookcase/shelving - organising and styling your shelves will help to elevate the space. The obvious thing we keep on a shelf is books, but consider bringing in some artwork and including decorative items such as vases and candles.

• Add some greenery - bringing the nature indoors is an effective and inexpensive way to add colour and texture into your space. Fill those empty nooks with some large plants or create some depth with the use of hanging plants.
