There are times when we all feel that things need to move around a little. After all it’s always fun to experiment with interior design. In this article I hope to outline some quick and easy tips (for the inside and outside) that’ll hopefully help you change the look and feel of your house by a little at the very least. The advice in this article take as little time as it takes to brew a fresh cup of good coffee, even the busiest of you will be able to fit time for these re decorations into your tight schedules. And without any further ado:

1) Play around with the plates

Consider changing up your drab, plastic switch plates with something a little more colorful and eye-catching. However, you should be careful to match your new switch plates with the décor of the room. I’ve always found this a great piece of advice as it’s really easy on the pockets (even the most expensive brass switch plates don’t usually cost more than $20), and can yet drastically affect the décor of the room. You don’t have to buy read made plates, if you have the time, you could buy a simple plastic plate and decorate it yourself. You could use craft paint or decorative paper. You could also try changing your switch outlet covers, and of course the covers should blend with the wall.

2) Touch-up those small flaws

Nothing changes the look of room like new paint. A little bit of new paint can truly be a blessing, it gives the room a fresh new face, which is why I tend to keep extra color-matched paint after remodeling. Fix up the chipped edges of your furniture and doors, personal experience tells me you can’t do this enough times. There’s always a banged up baseboard or door, and don’t even get me started on those damned wall marks that just won’t wash off.

3) Change out drawer and door hardware

You’ll be surprised how great a difference can be made by just changing the knobs of your doors and drawers. However I know many people who’ve underestimated the task and measured their drawer pulls wrong, and had to drill new holes for them. You can find great collections at almost any home improvement centers that are both inexpensive and distinguished.

4) Add Dimension to Empty Walls With Decorative 3d Wall Panels

Decorative wall paneling designs add 3d images and create pleasant illusions and produce stunning visual effects. 3d wall panels can help solve many interior design problems. Soft wall tiles and fabric wall panels, functional wall decor immediately brighten up a lacking any interest empty walls. Made of eco friendly or natural fabrics and leather, plastic and wood, wall panels can be used for designing any pattern, that will delight and impress your family and visitors. Very decorative 3d wall paneling designs are not only beautiful but also very functional and practical.

5) Update your mailbox

Freshen up that curb appeal! You could change your mailbox with something a little more interesting or you could just repaint your old mailbox. Maybe repaint the same color or go with something a little wilder and brighter. And of course be sure to clean off dirt and rust before you start painting.

6) Glass Tiles Add Radiance and Brighten up Your Home

Glass tiles are one of the hottest trends to pop up in hip bathrooms and kitchens today. Often used as shower walls or as accents on floors, glass tiles add sparkle, depth and luminescence not found in ceramic or stone. Use sparingly to create mesmerizing visual highlights, or cover an entire bathroom wall with them for a luxurious spa-like atmosphere. you can find a large selection of glass tiles that will surely provide enhancement to your decorating ideas.

7) Play the numbers game

I’ve always found decorative house numbers so endearing, it’s a great way of making your house stand out, as it gives it a custom and classy look. Not to mention that it’s an interesting way of welcoming guests. If you’re not comfortable getting a new plate made, then you could use one of those easy peel and stick numbers rather or get ones that can be screwed into place. Reasonably cheap and can be made from anything between wood to steel.
