Looking great for less

Linda Blair April 15, 2017 Reviews Leave a Comment

Having a high-end looking home need not be as unreachable as you think, even on a budget. Fortunately, there are ways that you can get the high-end look you dream of without breaking the bank. Here are some of the simplest and least expensive ways to make your home look elegant.

Color Matters

It’s fairly simple to paint a room in order to freshen it up. Paint color is perhaps one of the most difficult decisions to make though. It’s an important decision when the remaining décor will be based off the color palette you choose. However, if elegance is what you are after, there are certain colors that will add instant glamour to your home.

Opt for bold and dramatic or soft and understated shades. These hues allow you to add instant elegance to your home. Which one you choose depends on your color personality. Painting interior doors black is another great idea. It automatically creates an expensive feeling, without causing much damage to your wallet. Make sure you add some black accessories to the space to co-ordinate the overall design, if you decide to do this.

Don’t forget the windows

It’s easy to overlook the windows but they such an integral part of the overall design and a home without window treatments will simply look unfinished. Luckily, window treatments are one of the most budget-friendly ways to add some glamour to your home.

Don’t choose flimsy materials they can look cheap, even if they are the least expensive option. They also won’t offer you much in terms of privacy. This does not mean that you can’t buy off-the-rack curtains as many chain stores offer lined draperies that appear classy and expensive. Try to stick to elegant fabrics such as natural silk, linen and cotton for a more sophisticated look. Alternatively, bamboo shades or wood blinds are another stylish option.

Shine a light

Standard light fixtures are found in many homes as most contractors will choose standard, which are probably the same they have used time and again in all the homes they have built. Designer light fixtures will add more elegance to your home though. Think about visiting second-hand stores or flea markets for really interesting and classy lighting. You could bag a unique piece at a budget-friendly price.

The item may need a little cleaning or a new paint job, but can look a million dollars for just a few bucks. In addition, be sure to have several different light sources, including table lamps and floor lamps throughout the home to increase the elegant feeling.

Comfort is key

Add cushions throughout your home to increase the elegance factor. They serve two purposes, to give your guests with extra comfort on the couch, and offer a cozy, layered feeling to your rooms. Choose pillows that are large enough to rest on, and super soft. Large, overstuffed pillows create a very plush, elegant appearance—and don’t skimp on the pillow inserts, down-filled is the only way to go.

Improve – don’t replace

You could be tempted to rip out cupboards and cabinets but it’s possible to spruce up existing hardware at a fraction of the cost. Don’t be tempted by the cheap, poor quality drawer pulls and knobs from the first hardware store you visit. These bulk pieces are inexpensive, but they are also cheap-looking. Spend a few more dollars and find something you’ll be really happy with that looks a little more elegant. Smaller stores, flea markets, and antique shops are the best places to look where you’ll find heavy-duty, expensive- looking drawer knobs and pulls at a much more affordable price and much better looking too!
