Spending every weekend doing DIY is OK if it’s your hobby and you enjoy it. But if you’d rather be spending your time doing something else, but still want a great looking home, you’ll need to find another way. Happily, there are some simple and easy ways to upgrade your home’s interior that won’t take forever or leave you broke. Read on to find out just what they are.
Use rugs
Rugs are a super easy way of upgrading your home interior. You can use them to cover over the carpet that has seen better days so you can no longer see stains or bald patches. They are also a great way of bringing a color or design scheme together. Just as long as you match them carefully to the decoration already in the room.
They are also a lot easier to keep clean because you can move them. That means you can beat them outside to get rid of the dust and even in some cases wash them to keep them looking like new.

Another great way of improving your home interior simply is to check the fixture and fitting in the bathrooms like the tap can the shower heads.
If they are coated in limescale, not working properly, or look dated, you can quickly and easily replace them to get a modern and functional bathroom. Shop online for good quality taps at a reasonable price from shops such as the Tap Warehouse.
Rule of three
One of the best ways to upgrade your homes is to rearrange the way that you are displaying your ornaments and decorations. Remember that clutter isn’t attractive in any room, so instead use the rule of three.
This is when you make sure that each space that contains ornaments has no more than three items. Arrange them by color, texture but not height for maximum interest and impact. Displaying items in this way can create the illusion of more space, and show the objects off to their full potential, without you having to spend a penny.
Paint the ceilings
If you are concerned that your rooms are looking dingy and the walls, need to be repainted then consider painting just the ceilings first. Refreshing the paint on the ceilings can make the rest of the space look larger, lighter and even cleaner.
It’s a great fix if you are short on time, as you are only painting one surface instead of all of the walls in every room.
Refresh tables with a cloth
Most homes contain lots of tables and desks, and they all get used pretty often. That means they can start to look shabby pretty quickly. So why not invest in some table clothes which will not only protect these surfaces, they will also add a bit of color and dimension to your room.
If you are not into lace table coverings, then try waterproof and wipe clean oil clothes instead. They are super practical because they can be cleaned or replaced cheaply if they become too damaged or dirty.
