It is often said that home is where the heart is. It is where you feel most comfortable and the heart of every home is the living room. The living room mainly reflects the overall feeling or atmosphere or the type of family or anyone living in the house. The house is an extension of the personality of the owner and those who dwells with him. It is where the family sits or gathers all together to relax and have a discussion. Furthermore, the living room is important for the reason that it is where guests and visitors are welcomed on their arrival.
A living room redecoration doesn't necessarily have to cost a fortune. There are a lot of ways that you can do without having to sacrifice your three months worth of salary or a lifetime worth of savings. You only have to separate your "needs" from your "wants" and "considerable wants". It is actually easier said than done for the reason that there's only a thin line that separates those three categories. But successfully doing this can make you a lot of money. Classify your furniture or accessories under three (3) categories. These categories can be "for keeping", "for throwing" or "for renovating".
First things first! Decide on your theme, motif or the ambiance you want to accomplish. Living room for a big family is different from a smaller family. A couple's living room is also different from a bachelor's and/or bachelorette's living room. There are many great ideas found on the internet and better yet you can hold a family or a couple discussion where you an incorporate all of the ideas that you need. For a family living room, make sure to make good use of necessary points not all the points because the living room might look like a disaster.
A couple's living room is fairly easy. You can balance what he/she needs and wants. Try enlisting all your favorite colors and themes and find the one that you mutually agree with. It's also good to have the design to be reflective of your fused yet different personalities that will make your living room exceptional.
If you are living alone it is relatively the easiest way of deciding which design to create for the reason that you just have yourself and your fashion and creative sense to consider. On the other hand, you might need an outside idea from time to time.However, living alone can be fairly lonely so make sure you think of inventive ways to make your friends drop by regularly. You might want to add huge bean bags or a nice set of book shelf. You could even decorate a focal wall.
Liven up the living room on a budget
5 Easy steps to immediately transform your living room into a stylish but cozy area. Just keep in mind that just because you are on a budget doesn't necessarily mean you need to compromise comfort and safety.
1. Clear off the Clutter - a filthy and messy living room defeats the purpose of a well thought of redecoration. Your living must be kept nice and neat all the time.
2. Design a focal wall - a focal wall is the "center" of a room especially a living room. Having to focus your design on a bare or boring wall will save you money. This is where you can splash a nice color that compliments the motif of your living room then hang or place equally interesting wall pieces to accentuate. You can also hang clocks and other similar things.
3. Paint your Furniture - Reinvent that old piece of furniture painting with another color. You can add different textures or change door or cabinet handles to accentuate.
4. Experiment and Accentuate - adding pillows is the oldest trick on the book. By just using a different design, style and color of pillowcases, you just add a pop of color in your living room. For you not to get overwhelmed with colors and designs, you may use colors of identical family like blue and powder blue. Or colors that immaculately goes together like yellow and brown and rose and nudes. Just try to mix and match and see what goes together without going overboard.
5. Work on your budget - never get tired of seeking for the greatest bargain and discount shops. You can search the internet for good options and websites that give quality yet affordable items. Try overstock.Com, crateandbarrel.Com, furniturestorenyc.Com, ebay.Com and amazon.Com. Google has never been this reliable.
If your living room or your living room furniture and accessories have been collecting dusts or feeds off the termites then its high-time for that fashionable living room you or your family so deserve.
