The hub of most homes is the living room. Spring is the perfect time to spruce up your living room or any other part of your home. If you are planning on putting your home on the market and you want a fresh but simple look. Here are some ideas on how you can spruce up your living room.

ONE:

Spruce it up with some paint. Clean up those walls with a little paint. It’s the best thing you can do for your home. Stick with a neutral color. It brings in a light and airy look and feel. And, if you are planning on selling your home, neutral colors help others to visualize themselves in the home.

TWO:

Spruce it up with freeing up space. As you are decorating for the holidays, clear the everyday clutter away. Store the previous seasonal decor in bins and make space for the new season. And, it’s a good time to clean out those junk drawers too (you know you have them)!

THREE:

Spruce it up with proper furniture placement. If you love to binge Netflix or Hulu, rearrange your furniture so that everyone has the most optimal viewing experience. On the flip, if you feel you need a break from tv, then rearrange the furniture toward a coffee table to encourage more table games for family friendly interaction.

FOUR:

Spruce it up with adding some comforting accents to your furniture. Some ideas include: arrange soft, cozy, throw blankets loosely on chairs, switch out the throw pillows with new ones, use small plants, candles, or a decorative piece as table centerpieces. A simple area rug can dramatically change the feel of a room. A nice big rug is a statement piece.

FIVE:

Spruce it up with giving your windows something new to wear. Ready-to-hang window treatments are easy to install and can make a big difference, transforming a boring living room. Or start smaller, just freshen it up by replacing the curtain rod with a new one.

Whether you have a big or small budget, or no budget at all, there are ways to spruce up your living room or your whole house. Just make small but subtle changes and it can make all the difference. If it seems daunting, give me a call and let’s chat about how I can help. 218-349-1792
