Fabulous foliage

Lush house plants don’t cost much, and you can add as many of them as you want, adding vibrancy and life to any room. That’s not to mention the health benefits of a house filled with greenery. Plants in the home clean the air and protect us from harmful pollutants.

Light it up

The smaller the room, the more cramped it can feel. Add space and airiness by painting walls with light and soft colours. This will give the illusion of space, and make the most of the natural light coming in. Focus on your windows. Are heavy curtains blocking out light? Flood your rooms with light by switching to blinds.

Hang it, store it

Is it clutter that makes you crave a home revamp? Make space to see your floors again, and boost your storage options with the most innovative residential shelving Ireland has seen. Add overhead pot racks in the kitchen, floating shelves in the living room, and superhero shaped shelves in the kids room.

Old versus the new

There need not be a battle between your old furniture and modern styles. Contrasting styles and ages add interest and dimension to a room. Mix it up with some industrial style shelving like this https://www.rackzone.ie/shelving/industrial-residential-shelving/, placed next to some richly textured fabrics, to add a unique feel to your space.

Eyes down

Replacing carpets and flooring is an expensive job. Switch your carpet with a new rug, or add winter warmth to your hardwood floors with a large rug. You can really go to town experimenting with colours, textures and sizes. Rugs can be easily stored, so have a selection and chop and change to suit your mood or the season.

There we have 5 tips that you can get started on today. Our homes are always a work in progress, but that doesn’t mean spending lots of cash every time we feel like a new look. The smallest of changes can often have the biggest impact.
