Tips & inspiration

Have you had the same interior styling in your home for a long time and are ready for something new? Within most households, the living room is the most important room in the house. It is the heart of your home, the place where you relax, welcome guests and make memories. But sometimes it can feel like your decorations are a little boring or dated. Fortunately, you don’t have to spend a lot of money to revive your livingroom. With a little creativity and smart tips, you can transform your living room without spending a lot of money. In this blog, we show you the house of @lieks_home, master in the art of decorating! Based on her variably styled living room, we share tips on how to create a new living room in a simple but creative way at home.

6 tips for a new look in your living room

Tip 1: Start with a clean canvas

Before you start decorating your living room, it is best to create a ‘clean canvas’ first. This means clearing the space and removing excess items. A clean canvas gives you a chance to rethink the space and consider what you would really like to change. As you can see at @lieks_home, she created a clean canvas as well. Her clean canvas consists of the wall, the sofa, the rug and, of course, Artiteq’s Click Rail picture hanging system, on which she will be able to hang her new wall decorations.

Tip 2: Play with the layout

One of the easiest ways to create a new look without spending money is to play with the layout of your furniture. Try out different layouts to see what works best for the flow of the room. Maybe you can move the sofa to a different wall or rearrange the chairs for a fresh look. Also take a look at your coffee tables.  How to style them best within your living room? Or is it maybe time for a new coffee table? As you can see at @lieks_home, a new chair or a new coffee table can already do a whole lot for your room!

Tip 3: Give attention to the accessories

Accessories can have a great impact on the look of your living room, and they don’t have to be expensive. Look for affordable items like pillows, rugs and decorative accents like candles or plants. These small details can really revive a room and add a personal touch. Also at @lieks_home, these accessories really showcase the art of decorating. In no photo will you see the same pillow or blanket. The power of decorating is in the details.

Tip 4: Reuse and renovate

Before you rush to the shop to buy new decorations, look around in your home for items you can reuse or renovate. Give an old painting a new layer of paint or give an old cabinet a makeover. Being creative with the things you already have is a great way to save money and create a unique look.

Tip 5: Give your wall a makeover

One of the most impressive ways to give your living room a new look is by doing a wall makeover. And the best part of it all is, it doesn’t have to be expensive at all! With a little paint and creativity, you can transform a boring wall into a real eye-catcher. @lieks_home varies the colours on the wall from beige, bright pink, to soft pink which instantly gives the room a completely new look and feel. Finish off the fresh new colour with a matching new poster in the frame you already had hanging. For just a little money, your whole living room will have a new look!

Tip 6: Bring nature into your home with hanging flower pots

Another way to refresh your living room without spending a lot of money is by bringing nature into your home. With the Artiteq Botaniq hanging flower pot, the wall will make your living room stand out with the slightest ease. Paint the Botaniq in the colour of the wall and fill it with a nice plant. This way, the greenery in your living room won’t even take up space, but you will have brought a piece of nature inside. Natural elements not only add beauty to the room, but can also create a calming atmosphere.

The Loop Maker, which you use to make a loop, allows you to hang other flower pots. This way, greenery in your living room does not take up much space, but you bring nature inside. Natural elements not only add beauty to the room, but can also create a calming atmosphere. Read the blog “bring nature into your home” for more tips and inspiration to bring nature into your home.
