There is nothing more exciting than moving into a new place and having a fresh, clean slate to decorate any way that you want. While your home may have felt like your perfect, Pinterest-esque dream when you first moved in, after some time you may need a little refresh to make your space feel more inspiring and relaxing.
Most people spend a lot of time at home, especially in recent years, so you might as well make it somewhere that you really want to be. Whether it has been a while since you’ve decorated your home or you’re just itching for a change, here are 7 décor ideas to help make your space feel brand new again.
Reduce Clutter
Most people strive to have a neat, clutter-free space. Clutter can cause feelings of stress and chaos, which will not help in creating a zen space. Reducing clutter in your home can help it feel not only organized and clean, but also brand new.
A great way to reduce clutter is by putting away nonessential items. Consider buying decorative baskets or a storage console. There are a ton of beautiful storage units and baskets on the market that can help store your items and also double as a nice décor addition to any room. Having those nonessential items put away out of sight will help your space feel less cluttered and crowded, giving you the feeling of having an organized, clean space.
Rearrange Furniture
Sometimes your needs or desires for a specific room may shift over time. Sometimes you may just be yearning for a change in a room, but you can’t quite put your finger on what you want. Rearranging furniture is one of the easiest ways to revamp your space with minimal commitment. Just by simply moving around the furniture you already have; you can feel like you have a brand-new room.
The best part is that rearranging your furniture doesn’t cost anything—it’s like a free makeover! It’s also a great way to try a new layout without fully committing, since you can easily put your furniture back to the way you originally had it.
Decorate Walls
Decorating your wall space is a great way to revamp a room without adding in additional furniture or clutter on your floor. You can also use wall art to add a personal touch to your space. Add in a gallery wall of pictures that make you happy or photos that highlight your favorite personal moments throughout your life, like an engraved photo frame personalized with a special moment that brings you joy.
Empty wall space in a room can appear cold and unfinished. Adding photos, wall art or decorations on the wall can make your room feel cozier and give you that at-home feeling. It’s all about the personal details!
Coffee Table Décor
Coffee table décor is a great addition to your living space. It creates a focal point in the room and helps to highlight your decorative style. Changing out your coffee table décor is a small change but can be just what you need to make your space feel refreshed.
You can swap out your coffee table decorations seasonally depending on the current décor vibe you are going for. In the spring or summer, add bright colors—maybe even some fresh flowers for a clean, fun vibe. In the winter, bring in darker colors and textiles to give a warm, cozy look.
Greenery
