You can always make your place look luxurious without shelling out much money. If you are on a tight budget but still want to achieve the look you want for your home, here are some tips.
Invest in paint. It is the cheapest yet it is the one that can make the biggest result. So go and freshen the colors of your wall. Don't forget to search the best color combination for the best result.
You don't need to hire someone to do the things if you can do it yourself. Simple projects like painting, installing new floor, and sewing should be easy for you. You may also call a family member or your friends to lend you some hands. Cooking them some lunch or a simple snack is way cheaper than paying a professional. It is a form of bonding too.
There are tons of good deals in second hand. Check the nearest thrift stores, garage sales, salvage yards or even online auctions to find some furniture with solid construction that a new paint or upholstery can bring it back to life.
Overruns may not be perfect, but a slight damage won't hurt the entire appearance of a product. You may ask the store manager about fire-sale items to get some nice goods.
Go and take a walk to the nearest park, beach or woods. Those are the places where you can find some interesting items for free and use them as seasonal accents. A tray filled with pinecones or a bowl with sea shells or colorful beach glass is pretty eye-catching.
Your bedroom will look more romantic if you will replace your bedroom lamp's bulb with a pink one. Or you can buy a pink lampshade that can produce the same effect. This is trick by Woody Allen in Annie Hall.
