Statement Lighting

Any designer will tell you that lighting is essential for creating ambiance and setting the tone. While choosing a lamp that gives the space a nice glow is helpful, a statement lamp will elevate the space. Pendant lights are a good style that offers affordable options. The key is selecting a material and design that fills the room with soft amber light. Look for shades with basket weaving to disperse the light throughout the room. Delicate paper shades are also a nice touch as they’re light and create an airy look.

Accent Walls

This simple update is one of the oldest tricks in the book. Whether you give a wall a fresh coat of paint or opt for stylish wallpaper, adding a contrasting wall to a room can completely change its look. There are even renter-friendly ways to lean into an accent wall, like peel-and-stick decals, wallpaper, and tile for creating a backsplash effect. If you’ve settled on painting,  try adding a bold color for a unique look. The colors of the year provide plenty of inspiration and offer something to fit every style.

You don’t even have to go to a hardware store to find the new hardware of your dreams. There are lots of online retailers with diverse selections to choose from, including popular sites like Amazon, Anthropologie, and West Elm. Once you’ve found a few cool knobs and hardware pieces, all that’s left to do is install them around your home. From the kitchen cabinets to the bathroom and even your dresser, they’ll give the furniture a gorgeous new look.
