Affordable Home Decorating

Jan 16th 2016

Decorating in general can be such a daunting task. Whether you are revamping and redecorating an old home, or starting from a blank slate, the job can definitely be overwhelming. Opinions and pressure from outside family and friends, picking a color palette that you can live with, setting a budget, tearing in and committing to the project… Many times we talk ourselves out of it before we even begin. I mean really, who cares?

Studies have shown that a happy pleasant decorative environment, free of clutter and disarray, have a positive effect on a person’s mood and behavior. Even if you could care less what other people think of your 1960’s décor, you are the one who has to live with it. So roll up your sleeves and dig in; it really doesn’t have to be so bad.

  • 1.First you have to set a budget. The room you tackle will play a huge part in this decision. Obviously kitchens and bathrooms offer the most expense per square foot in your home. But if one of those rooms is your target redo, an affordable revamp really is an option. There are many décor options out there that make designing on a dime a seamless process.
  • 2.Decide on a color scheme. Picking your pallet can be the most difficult decision of the entire process. What if you get it wrong? What if the color mood isn’t what you were going for? Relax. Decide if you want the space to be bright and airy or dark and cozy and go from there. When in doubt, I look online for inspiration.
  • 3.SHOP. Find a few inspirational pieces and let that guide you from there. Whether one of a kind antique shops tickle your fancy, or chain stores with modern décor are in your favor, visit the places you love and center your décor on a focal point.

From textiles to furniture, depending on the budget you've set, it's time to add your pieces to the walls. Sweetums Wall Decals offers affordable wall decals to help.
