5 Tips On How To Inexpensively Get Your Home Ready To Entertain This Summer
Summer is here! With COVID restrictions loosening many are ready to start entertaining and welcoming friends back into our homes. Here are 5 tips to help you create a big impact with a small budget.
Plan & Budget
Creating a plan and a budget is a very important step to keep you on track and focused with your design. Starting a project without a plan or budget is like going to the grocery store without a list and starving. You end up leaving with items you didn’t need and wonder why you bought it, it's a nightmare. To avoid impulsive decisions, plan out the mood, style, colours you want to use and stick to a realistic budget.
2. Small Changes Can Make A Big Impact
Designing a space can feel overwhelming, but making small changes can create a big impact. Painting a room or a wall, adding in colourful new throw cushions, curtains and throws are great ways to refresh your space.
3.Thrift For Decor
Thrifting for decor is a great way to find unique and inexpensive home decor. Here are a few of my favourite thrifted finds to give you some inspiration.
4. DIY it
