6 quick, easy, and price-friendly ways to revitalize a room

the holidays are a great time to freshen up a few key pieces in your living space

Now that it’s getting chillier outside and you’re spending more time indoors, you may want to consider a few simple upgrades in your most-used spaces. Stylish storage solutions, temporary wallpaper, and a fresh area rug are just a few items that can instantly transform a room. And just in time for holiday guests!

tidy up

Block out a few hours to give your room a thorough going-over. Start by scanning all the surfaces where unnecessary items tend to congregate. Is there anything you can put away? Next, step back and look at the whole space—floors, walls, windows, furniture. What should be cleaned or repaired? Be thorough: use all your vacuum’s attachments to clean behind furniture, under cushions, in nooks and crannies. Dust the moldings and baseboards and wipe away grime on doors and switch plates. Lastly, refresh your upholstery with laundering, spot-cleaning, and fabric freshener.

Look out below! It’s amazing how a new rug can instantly transform a space, no matter the size. While neutral colors feel timeless, a pop of color can turn your space into a happy place.





pro tip:


graphic patterns feel less overwhelming when underfoot, so go ahead and try a style that has a lot to say.





wake up the walls

An accent wall

A fresh coat of paint can make such a difference in a room. But if you’re looking for an option that’s a little less ambitious, try creating an accent wall with peel-and-stick temporary wallpaper. It’s fast, easy, affordable, and there are so many styles to choose from. Go for a bright and whimsical pattern, or a more subtle neutral motif. There are even fun and stylish ideas like faux shiplap!

go for stylish clutter busters

Pretty and practical, high-functioning storage will keep things organized, minimize messes, and save you from tripping over stray objects. A storage ottoman is a great place to stash linens, toys, and board games, while a few beautiful baskets will keep throws cozy and clean and sports equipment tidy and out of sight. Pro tip: A bar cart can do so much more than hold cocktail fixings. Try one as a rolling home office, or use it in the kitchen to display dishes and glassware.

indulge in soft spots

Need some instant gratification that won’t break the bank? Try a few new throw pillows and poufs for a stylish and refreshed look. Styles with faux fur and velvet touches feel cozy during the colder months, while poufs do triple-duty as footstools, end tables, and perches. And come holiday season, they’re especially great for guests!

replace lampshades

Lampshades are one of those decor essentials that you get so used to seeing in your space, you might not realize they’re long past retirement age. If they’re snagged, stained, or looking a little dingy, it’s time for an upgrade. A fresh style will instantly bring new life into your room via color, texture, pattern, and form. And while you’re at it, consider a new shade and lamp: maximum visual impact for minimal cost!
