Create a feature wall
A feature wall, or accent wall, at home gives you the chance to experiment with different colours, texture and shapes to liven up the space quickly. You can easily create a new statement wall even if you have a limited budget. If you’re someone who loves to change your home décor a few times a year, you can easily spice up your feature wall any time. The best part is that all of these changes can be done without breaking the bank.
Here are some feature wall ideas:
- Painting just 2/3 of your wall
- Adding some textures
- Using a simple peel-and-stick wallpaper
- Adding a customised chart wall for some creative doodling
- Mounting shelves for more display and storage space

Add some plants
Besides changing your furniture, you can also add some greenery to your home to make a visual statement! By adding plants, you’ll also be adding to the overall aesthetic at home. There are limitless ways to mix and match – place them to accentuate a corner, hang them near the window or simply place on a table as a focal point. All these additions are budget-friendly as you can choose to purchase each plant in phases instead of buying all at once.
Here’s another quick tip for those who are planning to do some renovation work for your home or office space: Consider storing bulky items in a self-storage unit so that you’ll have more space to move about. By renting a storage unit, you can also ensure that your items are safe, paint-free and dust-free while you focus on your renovations.
