How to update your home in under 24 hours!

If you’re looking to change up your style, here are our top tips to create that new home feeling in just 24 hours.

Styling

• Work with your existing homewares to create focal points to breathe new life into an existing space.

• Pick items that are aesthetically pleasing and sentimental, like a favourite lamp, photo frames, travel souvenirs, coffee table books or ceramics.

• Use different heights and textures to create visual interest or arrange similar items together and displaying them in an unexpected location, like an island bench or coffee table.

• Adopt a similar approach to styling a gallery wall featuring framed photographs, paintings and/or art prints grouped by a theme.

• Other items which can be styled easily are indoor plants, which can add texture, colour and height into a space.

Furniture and décor.

• Examining your home’s furniture and rearranging accordingly can work wonders for refreshing a space.

• Complete the look with decor items such as floor lamps, pendant lights and mirrors.

• Mix different types of lighting together. Select a lamp that looks great when switched both on and off. That way, it can provide a sculptural element to the space as well as being practical.

• If your space features an abundance of straight lines, adding some contrasting decor pieces like a round mirror can facilitate a more harmonious balance.

Soft furnishings.

• Add soft furnishings for warmth and texture, particularly when styling bedrooms.

• Opt for plain or printed beautiful bedlinen and style it with some contrasting cushions or pillowcases.

• Swapping vertical or Venetian blinds for soft furnishings can also add a sense of cosiness and intimacy. For example, consider running a curtain from the ceiling and across the full width of the window and adjoining walls to give your room a high-end, luxury feel.

• Finally, a floor rug will tie a living room or bedroom look together while also helping to zone items in open-plan areas.
