Unique Ideas for Giving Your Home a New Fresh Look

Does your home make you happy? Look around. What can you see? Are there things you want to change? It can be something simple, like changing the decorative pillows in your living room, painting a room, or replacing furniture. Maybe you are thinking bigger along the lines of knocking out a wall, adding a new room, or kitchen remodel. How can you make changes to your home and create that fantastic dream place to fill your heart with warmth. Look around your house and note the changes you want to make. Now, let’s talk about a few ways you can make your home look fresh and unique.

• Painting, redecorating, and rearranging
• Creating a rustic or farmhouse type theme
• Creating a space for your children
• Changing furniture by adding new pieces or replacing the old with new
• Consider exterior updates; painting, landscaping, or outdoor living space

Painting, redecorating, and rearranging

You want to make that change in your home, but your not sure where to start. Start small, rearrange the furniture in one room. Sometimes a simple change can spark the creative flame and bring new ideas. Think about adding color; an accent wall and new decorations can completely change a room’s feeling. You could introduce a country kitchen feel by using old spoons as drawer and cupboard handles.

Creating a rustic or farmhouse type theme

If you are looking for more significant changes, consider going with a farmhouse theme. Installing sliding barn doors inside your home creates a warm rustic atmosphere. Throw up some reclaimed wooden signs or shelves, a crate here, a wicker basket there, and Voila! You are on your way to a whole new indoor experience. Even though the country environment is cozy when it comes to your bathroom, you might prefer to keep some modern fixtures. Installing sliding glass doors keeps the room feeling open and fresh. The great thing is that glass barn door hardware comes in all kinds of styles, colors, and finishes. You can keep it modern with stainless steel, or you can add a touch of rustic with an iron finish.

Creating a space for your children

We all know kids and all their stuff just kind of overflow into every part of the house. To solve this, you can create a new space your kids will enjoy, and it will clear up clutter. The new space can be just an area or corner of a larger room or an entire room. Use a new rug or colored tiles to help designate the kid’s area, then add a desk or table with chairs. Clear up the clutter with a cubicle shelf with baskets to hold the mess; you can also use the shelf as a mini wall to separate the area. The kids will be naturally drawn to that area.

Changing furniture with new pieces or replace old pieces

A simple way to add a fresh look and feel to your kitchen is with an island. Kitchen islands come in all shapes, sizes, and styles. They can be stationary, or on wheels, so you can move them where you want as you need. Adding a divan to a living room or library makes a statement about the comfort of the room. No one will be able to resist reclining on it, especially if it has a luxurious throw and colorful pillows. If your bed is ten years or older, it’s time for an upgrade. Since you’re shopping for a new bed, make it a design change, leave that padded headboard on the curb, and think about something totally different.

Consider other options

When you arrive home, does your house invite you in with warmth? A new paint job and a new color scheme will make your home feel more welcoming. Adding colored shutters gives a house a bit of class. Creating an outdoor living space with couches and a firepit gives you an excuse to spend time outside. Landscaping is always a good idea. It’s time to do away with the overgrown bushes; new rose bushes and a few trees always add life to a home. The main thing to remember when updating the exterior of your home’s curb appeal.
