12 Quite simple Interior Decorating Guidelines To Add A little Style To Your Home

By Dog Lover | January 6, 2010

If you don’t have the time or the money for a full home renovation, here are 12 quick interior decorating information to add some excitement and style to your home:

1. Wallpaper borders: You don’t have to paint or fully cover walls to add a bit more interest. Try wallpaper borders. They come in all kinds of colors, patterns and shapes.

2. Add a Throw Rug: Even if you already have a carpeted family room, you can add a brightly colored or uniquely patterned rug for a different look. You can place them at floor level, mid- level or up at the ceiling. Get creative!

3. Put Valances on the Window: A window valance is simply a small decorative curtain. It’s much shorter and it’s only function is to look pretty on a bare window or a window with blinds.

4. Keep Your Home Organized: Okay, that doesn’t seriously sound like a decorating tip, but the more organized and uncluttered your home is, the better it will look and the more comfortable it will look.

5. Try New Ceiling Lighting or a Different Lamp: It’s amazing what a difference lighting can make in a condo. Update your look with some innovative lighting.

6. Add Color: There are a number of ways to add color to your home. You can do it with towels, throw pillows, table skirts, folding screens, fancy bedsheets and more.

7. Paint Your Cabinets: Not ready for new cabinets? If you have wooden cabinets, you’ll be able to very easily paint them with acrylic paint made for wood.

8. Decorate Your Walls: Add paintings, framed photographs, art-work, candle sconces or whatever fits your fancy.

9. Add Unusual Decorative Light Switch Covers: Forget about about simple and boring white or beige light covers. Add some excitement to the room.

10. Add Cushions to Your Chair: Not only will it create a fresh look for your chairs, but it might cover up some of those scratches that build over time.

11. Change Your Door Handles: Door handles aren’t too complicated to change and come in quite a few designs and color choices.

12. Add Candles, Vases or some other Centerpieces to Your Tables: You can try pillar candles in a number of sizes placed on a decorative plate, a brightly colored vase with fresh flowers or another different centerpiece to add beauty to any area.

Not all home makeovers require a contractor and thousands of dollars. If you have a bit of time this weekend, now’s the perfect time to get started with these fantastic decorating tips.
