How to Spruce up A Room without Major Renovations

Forget about tearing your room apart, this is how to spruce up a room without all the hassle and time of a huge renovation!

Everyone loves a good home improvement! I know I do! However, I do not know one single person that loves spending major renovations every single time they want to spruce up a room. I mean, if you could do it for less, wouldn’t you?!

What if I told you that you can? You can spruce up a room without major renovations! And you can turn your home into a place that you love…without having to spend buckets and buckets of money. Here are my favorite ways to spruce up a room without major renovations, which will save you time and money .

Paint makes a huge difference

Painting is tedious work, but I would not exactly call it a major renovation. If you are removing popcorn ceilings, taking out walls, or fixing a ton of holes in the wall, then yeah – I would consider THAT major renovations. However, just an update or change of paint? Not so much.

Paint is also a great way to freshen up your home and make it clean and sparkling for spring and summer. Look around your home to see if you need to touch up paint anywhere and if you need to consider the help of Edmonton Painters.

How are the baseboards looking? If they look like they just need a cleaning, then try that out first. If there are scratches on the wall, take the opportunity to paint over the scratches, or choose a new color to paint the entire room.

Paint really does freshen things up and make a home feel like it is new. If you focus on painting neutral colors in your home like cream, beige, gray, or other light colors, you can add more color throughout the rest of your home. The great thing about paint is the fact that it’s not too pricey and you do not need to hire someone to do it for you (at least, most of the time).

Paint can completely open up and brighten a room and all it takes is a few hours of your time and some concentration. Even if you leave your walls the same color and just clean and repaint your baseboards, you will be very surprised at what that can do. It will not only help the room feel brighter, but it will feel cleaner, as well (and it probably is cleaner). 

Declutter

When you are working on sprucing up a room, adding new decor is always a great option to help make it feel welcoming and seasonal. However, sometimes, too much stuff makes things a lot worse. This includes decor!

My best recommendation? Declutter! Remove decor, and anything else that you do not use or need from your house. Trust me – less is more! If you have large furniture or other items that you cannot get rid of yourself, call a moving team that can help you remove them from your home, or move them into storage.

Star City Services is a great place to start if you are in the area. They do long-distance movers Roanoke, commercial moving, residential (local) moving, furniture delivery in Roanoke, and so much more, such as helping move large furniture items! 

Open up your window treatments

Open up your windows and window treatments and let the light in! Gone are the days where people use bulky curtains. Instead, if you want to block out harmful UV rays while still letting light in, consider getting window films put on your windows.

Window films are great options for people who want more light in their home, but still want privacy, UV protection, and enhanced safety and security, as well. Another window tip is to clean your windows.

Grime and dirt piles up on window surfaces on the inside and the outside and cleaning them to let more light in and to help them look cleaner, is essential. 

Give everything a good scrub down

Sometimes, all your home needs is a good scrub down. Hire commercial cleaning pros in Madison wi for a one time deep cleaning, or do it yourself. Either way, your house will look SO much better once everything is spic and span again. Remember when you first moved in and you loved your place? Well, you still do love it – it just needs some TLC.
