A piece of art can set a mood, inspire you, reflect what you cherish most or simply fill up that wall that you keep thinking “needs something.” Whether it’s a statement piece or a collage of images that create a gallery-like feel – art is an easy way to bring up the eye-appeal in your home. No moving of furniture necessary.

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Hardware

Updating hardware to cabinets, walls and drawers is a simple way to dramatically breathe new life into your existing space. With options ranging from traditional to modern, in all kinds of finishes – you’re bound to find something to satiate your design hunger. Don’t forget about your switch plates and outlet covers, these details get overlooked but can make a huge difference in the feeling of a room as quickly as flicking on a switch.

Happy decorating!
