Pour freshness into your home this New Year with some affordable, creative updates that will catch people’s eyes on one look.

Give a unique boost to small decorative projects from repurposed items to stylish inputs and crafting a brand new look by your own inspiration. You can decorate your home creatively with these home-decorating ideas that are budget-friendly to present a classic effect with a sparkling touch that you love to have in your rooms.

DIY Wallpaper
Rather than spending too much money on costly designed wallpaper prints available in the market, why not opt for wall stencils for paintings as an alternative. You can customize your stencil touch with your favourite combination of paint colours, patterns such as feather, ethnics, furniture and textile stencils to create a beautiful artwork.

Green-Friendly Home
In order to give a modern appeal, you can try putting small green plant pots on the balcony, in the drawing-room corner or windows of the kitchen area to make your rooms look more lively and freshening. Try out a single palm leaf, a flax pot vase or herb plants like indoor money plant, basil, borage, chervil, chives, etc.

Focus on the Floors
You can give attention to your room floors by considering different designs of tiles and adding an area rug on the floor to add more style.

Coloured Lamp Shades
Beautify your house with coloured lamp- shades to offer a bold statement, and ensure to limit the colours to one per room. You can pick shades in neutral tones like white and designed parchment and try adding ribbons, or colourful strings.  

Hang A Gallery of Family Photos
You can brighten your wall by selecting your favourite photos of your family and friends; insert them on your photos frames. Choose a theme for those frames like birthdays, weddings, vacations etc.

Craft A Side Table
A side table with drawers can really look attractive to the bedroom, which can be used by displaying small decorative items on it and to store books. You can either buy online or get a carpenter to make a high-quality designer side-table.

Scented Candles
Try decorating your home with scented cluster candles on a spacious surface of your rooms to show serenity. You can either keep few candles in glass containers or dip a small candle in a glass bowl half-filled with water.

Display a Collection
Show a collection of vases or other artworks by selecting some art pieces in a variety of shapes and heights placed in different corners of the room.

Large Mirror Attraction
If you like to see yourself well dressed-up before leaving home, you can prop up a large interior designed mirror either on one side of wardrobe or an exclusive big carved wall mirror, in your room.

Lighten Up With Wicker
Cheap wicker furniture can completely change the atmosphere with fresh feel in the air. Place wicker chairs outdoors, style your room with a wicker stand or wicker hanging the item on the wall.
