Home is one of the places we come back to when we look for comfort. We love our home not just because of the memories we have spent with different people but also, at what corners those memories were built. Just like playing with your family in your background, sipping tea sitting beside the window while it’s raining or cooking with your mom in the kitchen.
We feel that every corner should be given time while being decorated. And that is why we are here to help you with redecorating your space which you can easily get in flea markets.
1. Walls tells stories
Adding frames to a white background or a neutral color definitely upgrades your living area. You can bring antique wall frames of different shapes and sizes. Or you can also choose to put some modern art & abstract paintings (some of it you can do yourself, everybody has a hidden artist in them). A lot of people have a hobby of collecting coins, postcards or just old pictures, these can also be framed and put on the wall.
Sometimes coloring a wall that is off the color palette can help to lighten up a room. And adding up an old chair & table in front of it can make a difference.
2. Throw loads of cushions and pieces of cloth
Overstuffed pillows of various colors and sizes give out a very elegant yet very cozy look to your space. If chosen correctly, it brightens up space, plus looks very welcoming and you would see your guests glued there for the whole time.
To add on, if we talk about curtains made up of pieces of cloth, this idea can be used in many ways. Like on a smaller window you can use various pieces of clothes & sew them together to make a multi-color curtain. It will definitely change the whole look of the place and will give a boho vibe.
3. Pick some plant
Plants are a universal element for decoration, no matter wherever you put. I mean even if you put a small money plant in the washroom, it will always add a luxurious touch to your washroom. Just keep in mind the placement of these indoor plants, like which plants need more sunlight and which can survive indoors.
4. Heard of upcycling furniture
Yes, you read it right by upcycling furniture, can always change home look into something modern yet classy. Upcycling is the new answer to the modern budget home decor, people are seen going to thrift shops and flea markets to look for some old chairs, tables, or something as little as a doorknob.
Check out good housekeeping, as to how they have turned old furniture and in something new! The concept of cutting a tanker and giving it a rusty look, to make a bed for the kitten is a top-notch idea
5. Put some idea in your bathroom
It’s easy to overlook the bathroom when you are busy decorating your room. But wait, these small places also need your powder room and should also look as if you are refreshing yourself in a different world. Nothing major, you need to get some paintings to plant around your washroom, decide a wall, and fill it up with paintings. Introduce stools in the bathroom, besides your bathtubs. This will not only give you an extra surface with the organization, but it will also give a luxurious look.
6. Soft black does no harm
Yes, you are reading it right, there is a specific shade named as Farrow & Ball Railings. The soft black paint color in a space like a study room makes up something different. The antique furniture with such color adds a homey vibe.
7. Treat the windows right
What is a home without good windows? Nothing right, so treating the window can make a lot of difference in the ambiance. So when you are brainstorming the ideas for curtains, we would like you to stick with silk, linen and cotton. And if you don’t like curtains like these, you can always go for woven bamboo shades or wood blinds. Just be certain to clothe your windows—they assure your home looks gorgeous and well-designed.
8. Introduce rugs in your house
Making a room look rich in a budget with a plush rug is always appealing to the human eye. It depends on what look you want, you can always choose between classy like the plain rugs or traditional ones. And instead of going to expensive stores and buying chenille rugs, go for something that is less expensive. Like you can always look at something made with synthetic yarn, artificial silk, and even rugs made up of jute. You are advised to get longer rugs rather than shorter ones because the larger covers the great part of the floor and doesn’t even look clumsy & uneven.
9. Introducing Canopy
Canopy bedrooms are preferred classic designs and give the room a royal look. Another reason why this look is preferred by a lot of people is that they look romantic and satisfy your luxury craving. Not only this, but it also makes your bedroom more glamorous and comfy. The best part is it doesn’t need some high-end fabrics but simply hanging white see-through fabric with some accessories makes your room worth.
10. Reading spot
We generally don’t have a designated reading corner but we can always make one. Just look for some real estate leftover and you are ready to make one of your own. You can either go for bookshelves and a comfy seat near the window or something that defines class, like stained woods, you can fill the shelves with accessories like vases and sculptures to break the monotony of a wall of books. Try something with bright colors and it will stand out.
There are a lot more ideas to add upon. But before anything you need a research flea market and thrift shops around you where you buy such things. Remember to take note of each corner of the house in your mind about which place, what activity happens. And then think of the decoration that happens at those places. We wish you a fun time as you change four walls into your comfort place.
