You’ve probably heard that you don’t want to use vibrant or dark colors to paint a room and you don’t want to go with a wallpaper pattern that’s got too bold a pattern. That’s because they make a space more confining and it will make your home harder to sell one day since bold patterns and colors aren’t as universally accepted as something
lighter and more neutral. While this is generally good advice, you can get away with painting or wallpapering an accent wall that’s less conservative. Not only is it a great way to spice up a room but it’s a lot cheaper than having to paint or wallpaper the entire room.

New throws and pillows

threadbare and both lose their bright color and start to look more dull. Swapping them out is very inexpensive. You can usually find throws and pillows for just a few dollars. It’s a great way to mix up colors, textures, and patterns in a space without having to spend much money.

master bedroom. But high quality mirrors with a decorative frame can be hung anywhere. It’s often cheaper than purchasing art but it can serve a similar function.
