For the least pricey update of all, repurpose what you’ve already got. A new arrangement of furniture will work wonders in updating your space’s functionality and look. Instead of the same old boring traditional layout, try moving your furnishings away from the wall. 

That would make the living room look huge! You may also bring even more chairs for a more conversational ambience. Even tiny tweaks make a huge difference! 

3. Declutter, Declutter, Declutter

Believe it or not, getting rid of clutter and using your storage to bring personality will ultimately transform a room. If you do not already have the perfect living space storage, take advantage of your bookshelves or open shelving. 

These can perfectly be used to further update the living space. Swap regularly what is kept on them, add photos, art pieces, plants, magazines and books to come up with a new focus.

4. Go for Eye Catching Vignettes

You may go either for bold prints or or ones with subdued hues. In this eclectic living room,  a mix of abstract prints in a range of blue hues creates this impressive gallery wall.

Plants are a great way to add to your design arsenal. They bring shape, color and life to a room. Luckily, there are a myriad of places you can pick up top quality, inexpensive foliage. Want to fill your room with greenery? 

Since big houseplants are still pricey, arrange groups of tiny house plants at different heights all over the living room. This way, you’ll create the illusion of the living room being filled with plants! Houseplants add life to your living room decor… Literally!

7. Light It UP

Believe it or not, something which does not cost much and may be updated quickly is lighting. If you do not want your living room to look like an extra bright operating theatre, consider table lamps or floor lamps at different heights. 

You will instantly create cozy light pools that dramatically change the mood of the living space, simply by layering your lights. Bear in mind that the right lighting is essential to showing off a beautiful design.

8. Perfect Your Color Scheme

Don’t forget to narrow down your color palette. Take inventory of your entire living space, and try to determine exactly your three favorite shades, whether bold or light, then assemble. Simply by selecting a simpler, more perfect color scheme, the design is much more dynamic. 

Right after you’ve assembled the living room, see if it needs a couple more accessories or decor pieces to further enhance your color scheme. Go shopping, yet remember to purchase only what you truly adore.
