Small Inexpensive Ways To Decorate

There can be many ups and downs with the decorating process. The upside includes great aesthetic finds.  The downside usually reflects not being unique or more likely, not having enough money. The key to being successful is not letting your low budget show.

Many people crave a room change when the time isn't right financially.  That doesn't mean it cannot be done.  There are many small inexpensive ways to improve any space.  You can be frugal and love your place.  So, think on your toes.

One economical suggestion is to paint the borders, instead of splurging for the entire room.  Also consider defining door patterns and knobs.  Don't buy new dressers and cabinets, purchase handles. Another cool addition to most rooms are throw pillows, small rugs and curtains.

Originality counts too!  Become a staging professional for yourself. Rearrange what you have in a unique way.  Make a picture come to life.  For example, you have a framed poster of bowl of fruit sitting in a chair.  Place the same fruit in a bowl on a chair either in front of it or nearby. Or maybe you have a long bud vase. Use it as a bracelet holder in a bedroom or spray paint it to match your theme. Door hooks can also double as a necklace holder.

The possibilities are endless.  Simply incorporate a fresh look into your design.  Be creative about displaying items and enjoy it. Make your house a home.
