Hello and welcome! To start, disclaimer, there are many ways you can go about improving on your living space. These are just 5 ways out of a very many that you can use.

With that said, the focus will be on introducing a new “colour” or texture to a space. But note, for a new “colour”, you do not necessarily need to change the space’s colour scheme, it could just be using a different shade or tone.

Now with the intro over, here are 5 easy decor items you can use to improve the look of any living space.

1 - Wall Tapestries

If you are renting or do not want to go through a permanent design choice such as painting a wall, then a Wall Tapestry can be a great option. They come in different sizes and feature a myriad of designs.

They excel at being a functional design piece, you can dress up a wall to meet your needs for whenever you need.

2 - Throw Blankets

With that said, no matter the weather, a sofa or bed that is well dressed with a throw blanket really helps to seal the look of a room. Making it appear more inviting, warm and coordinated.

3 - Art

Now, art can be expensive but it also don’t need to be. There are ways you can create your own art so it fits to your purpose. For an example: see here on how you can use a colouring page to create your own framed artwork.

Outside of that, they are others great ways to add different design layers to your space. Just remember, art does not necessarily to mean an “art print”, art is an expression of our imagination. So you could frame wrapping paper fabric, display a drawing or get creative with wallpaper. Just as long as it is able to capture the essence of the aesthetic you are trying to exude then it will work to enhance your space.

4 - Throw Pillows

As the name suggests, these pillows can be thrown onto a sofa, window seat, bed or even arranged as cosy floor seating plus as a bonus, they can also be used outside if you get the outdoor variant.
