So you’re looking to redecorate but you’re not sure where to start. Follow these four simple steps to breathe new life into your space, and your home will look as good as new!

 

Paintbrush laying on top of color swatches

Step 1: Bring in some color

Painting is one of the easiest things you can do to change up a room. Just be sure to paint before you bring in any large pieces of furniture, if possible.

 

Bed

Step 2: Focus with furniture

Large pieces, like a sectional sofa or a bed, are important in bringing the room together. Invest in items like these instead of spending in other smaller areas.

 

Kitchen lighting

Step 3: Let the light shine

Lighting fixtures might not seem that important, but they can really make a difference in the appearance and feel of a room.

 

Living room

Step 4: Time to accessorize

Once the important pieces are set, you can bring in items like pillows, rugs, and end tables that speak to your personal style and vision and tie it all together.
