When my husband and I first moved into our tiny new home, I never dreamed that twelve years later we would be living here with three kids and a beagle. Juggling raising the kids and homeschooling every day, we were running out of space and didn’t have enough resources to update the things I wanted. In the spring, I always have a special desire to decorate, but the budget doesn’t allow me to completely remodel.
Decorate a room with a cheap couch
I really want to repaint my entire house in bright, vibrant colors, replace old furniture, and artfully scatter flowers and unique statement art. That kind of major upgrade isn’t realistic this year, so for now I’m looking for inexpensive solutions to make a major impact on my living room.
I was excited to find new pillow covers that would freshen up my worn out leather couch; all for $5 or less with free shipping! You can find inexpensive pillow cushions at Michael ‘s or Jo-Ann Fabric, and a coupon will make them even cheaper. Otherwise, old, freshly washed pillows can get a facelift with these bright new pillowcases.
If your living room is looking dated, upgrade your couch and change the entire look of the room. Find current trends on Amazon for a fraction of the price you’d pay for the same style at a department store! The next planned project is:Re-create small decorative items on your mantelpiece from scraps.
