You don’t have to be an interior decorator to give your living space a major makeover. No matter your style or your budget, these home decorating tips will help you to refresh your home just like a professional.

1. Paint your furniture. A coat of paint can breathe new life into tired furniture. Take a paintbrush to an older bookshelf or coffee table, or add a pop of bright citrus paint to an outdated desk or dresser.
2. Add slipcovers. Instead of investing hundreds (or even thousands) into a new sofa, purchasing an affordable slipcover will give your current sofa a whole new look.
3. Create a gallery wall. This decorating trend is popular because it can be customized to suit anyone’s tastes. Add a variety of picture frames in a matching color to one wall, or mix and match vintage frames with your favorite family photos to create a cozy look.
4. Make your own headboard. If you’ve had your current bed frame for longer than you can remember, switch things up a bit by making your own custom headboard. Stain a repurposed wood palette in a dark shade, or even use an antique door for a rustic look.
