Are you tearing your hair out at the minute thinking there are a million and one things that need changing around your home? Well, if you are, you’re not alone. Every person has something they wish they could change about their home, some are actually easier than others. What you need to do is think of the rooms that you know need changing the most, the ones you might have neglected over the years. If you’ve got one that comes to mind, then we’ve got some ideas on how you can change it. Here are the rooms that usually need the most work, and what you can do to them.
Bedroom
We aren’t just talking about your bedroom with this one, if you have children, we’re talking about theirs too. Well, in fact, it’ll be their rooms that most likely need changing the most. Children are messy for one, and as they grow they’ll no doubt grow out of their decor. Try and update theirs every two or three years. A fresh coat of paint to a different colour, and maybe even some new furniture. It is important to include them in the decision making process as they’ll have ideas that might actually look great. But of course, the room you’re going to be most concerned about is your own. First see what can be done to the main feature of the bedroom, the bed. If you want to make it as comfy as possible, you need to think about whether your mattress is outdated. If it is, check out companies such as Choose Mattress to see the range of different styles that you can get. Accompany this with a nice new bed frame, and half the work is done for you. There are some excellent bed frames available, but one of the coolest has to be the one where you can slot your TV in the end, and it’ll rise up with a click of the button. It’s a little bit of luxury that not a lot of people have. As for the rest of the room, try going for a new colour scheme to completely switch up the room. Keep the old furniture if you wish, and just swap the wall paper curtains. A new colour will give the room a new lease of life.
Living Room
The living room is most likely the biggest social area of the home. Making it as spacious and welcoming as possible is essential. Firstly, if your sofa suite is a bit outdated, it is time for a new one. One item we know is essential to creating a family room is a corner sofa. It makes so much more room and space for people to sit, and there’s some really lovely designs. If you want to make things a little plush, go for leather sofas in a mink colour. Mink goes with pretty much everything. Light caramel coffee coloured walls offer a light vibe, with a tad bit of colour so that the room is not too plain. If you want, you could have a feature wall that offered a darker colour to spice things up a bit.
