While the COVID-19 pandemic may have wreaked havoc for most people that love socializing, it is also a blessing in disguise, especially if you have been shunning the idea of sprucing up your home. Now more than ever, you will be required to social distance from other people in a bid to keep new infections at bay. Even as you stay at home, here are some of the sprucing ideas to help you accentuate your home:
1. Rearrange the furniture
The living room houses all types of furniture including sofas, coffee tables, and poufs. The best way to rearrange the seats is by placing in a u-shape order so that everyone can watch the television with ease. Now you can set the coffee table at the center.
2. Get an indoor plant
Whether you are a fan of flowers or greenery, getting an indoor plant can balance the air in your room. If you do not know what indoor plants are suitable for you, get an interior décor expert to give you some ideas.
3. Update your accessories
It does not matter how much you like holding on to your possessions. If you walk into an accessory store and find a beautiful-looking vase, pick it up. Incorporate new elements into your house even if you do not intend to ditch the old ones.
4. Declutter
The best way to create space in your house is by getting rid of clutter. Get rid of anything you have not used for the past year.
5. Harmonize your mood lighting
A bulb that bears higher wattage is not only bad for your eyes, but it also makes a room look busier. You can incorporate mood lighting by shifting table lamps and floor lamps around your living room and rooms you spend most of your time in.
6. Time to revamp your shelves
Your shelves are supposed to hold your stuff. However, they get the least attention when it comes to home sprucing. This time, try covering it with a tapestry and rearrange everything to make it look new again.
7. Introduce throw pillows and rags
The best way to turn a boring-looking sofa into a beautiful masterpiece is by adding throw pillows or blankets. For example, if your sofa is grey, you can mix throw pillows in red, yellow, and green colors.
8. Update your headboard
The fact that a headboard is supposed to support your bed and protect your wall from abrasion does not mean that it should look boring. Try adding a blanket or tapestry over it, or pain it to create a fresh focal point from your room.
9. Declutter your kitchen counter
If your microwave is getting in your way when trying to find something from your kitchen counter, then you should find a new place for it. Alternatively, you can get a storage tray to rearrange everything.
Improving the look of your home does not have to be expensive. Knowing what needs to be added and what should be removed is the only trick you have at achieving your sprucing goals.
