A tangle of cords cluttering your space and taking away from the beautiful display is a mess that’s easy to tidy. Try putting cables or crowded electronics into baskets to hide them from sight. You can also zip tie hanging cords to the table leg or the extra slack in a bundle. Either of these methods will help hide your messy cables and keep your home tidy.

2. Update Your Fireplace

A fireplace is a top selling feature in any home, except when it is outdated and unappealing. There are many quick and easy updates you can do to make your fireplace stand out – in a good way. If your fireplace is a brass trim, use heat-resistant spray paint for an instant update. Additionally, painting the surrounding brick will give it a modern look.

3. Incorporate Ornamental Boxes

Decorative boxes are a great tool to hide everyday items that clutter your space. Use an elegant box to hide unattractive toiletries, scattered mail or extra electronics. This will help de-clutter and add a fancy touch to your home.

4. Display Natural Features

Adding touches of nature into your décor will help make your home feel fresh and inviting. Pick items that reflect your location (wood, seashells or twigs) and include flowers or plants in each room. These can all be found in your backyard, making it free or very in-expensive to incorporate into your décor.

5. Add Decorative Items

Introduce small decorative pieces to your home to give it a luxury feel all while staying on budget. Swap out dirty hand towels for new display towels for as little as $5, update pillows by covering them with a pillow sham, or create a table runner from an old drape. These minor updates will have a major change on the look and feel of your home.

6. Mount Mirrors

Mirrors are a great way to open up any room in your home and they also are perfect for brightening dark rooms or hallways. Instead of the usual big mirror, try an arrangement of mini mirrors. A collage of small mirrors is an inexpensive way- most can be purchased at discount stores - to add a wow factor to any room.
