If one year will go down in the books of history for anxiety and everything that comes with it, you can call it 2020! Needless to mention, a worldwide shut down literally took place at the beginning of the year, owing to a global pandemic by the name of Covid-19. This virus, whose origin was traced to Wuhan China, has claimed hundreds of thousands of lives, with millions of people around the world being financially, socially, mentally, and emotionally affected amid lockdowns, curfews, company layoffs, and business closure, just to name a few devastating effects.

However, life has to go on and in this period where more time is spent indoors, the best anyone can do is ensure their indoor space is not boring despite the situation. In other words, giving your home a new look can help spice things up so you don’t feel as if you’re in jail or something in this quarantine period.

So, are you looking to achieve a refreshing look and feel for your home at this time of the year? Here are some tips you might find helpful on how to give your home a makeover this 2020.

Try Throw Pillows

Whether it’s the living room, the guest room, or the bedroom, throw pillows can be an amazing way to refresh your home’s look. They’re great even on outdoor furniture! Throw pillows add some magic to your furniture, especially when mismatched carefully so they don’t have the same patterns and textures as your cushions and furniture fabric. The folks at SimplyCushions.com.au say that changing your cushion covers can be a great way to refresh your sofa and add some glam to it. It might not seem so, but they can transform the entire look and mood of the room. It’s just about being careful and playing with the sizes, shapes, textures, and colors.

Go Vintage

Old is gold and it is becoming rare in these times. You will always find it tasking to easily get hold of décor that has a touch of vintage. That is why they tend to be a bit expensive when compared to the trending stylish modern décor. Nonetheless, vintage pieces are increasingly regaining popularity these days, making them an ideal home makeover idea for 2020. However, it’s better to have just one or two vintage statement pieces instead of having them everywhere in your house. Yes, imagine having a vintage corner in your space… heavenly! It gives your home a traditional twist without having to look so old. Embrace the culture and you will love the glam!

Embrace Wall Art

Walls have always been used as a method of communication and expression since back in the day. With all the space we have on our walls, an empty wall should be a crime in this age and day. There are many varieties of wall art and wall art ideas out there that you can consider. For instance, antique art, even though often hard to find and expensive, can add a unique touch to your space. With sites like Pinterest making it easy to do DIYs, you have no reason to have boring walls surrounding you.

Install Wallpaper

Wallpapers have been present for so long but for various reasons, some people tend to have a fear of investing in them. But hey, come on, we’re in 2020! Outgrow your fears and doubts and get it. Paints have been on kickbacks since wallpapers took over our walls. They come in different varieties of colors, textures, and designs and can be a great way to transform the look of your indoor space. When shopping for wallpapers, there is something for everyone and you will be spoilt for choice! What’s more, wallpaper works great in all the rooms, including the bathroom.

Accessorize

If you thought accessories are for women only, take a seat. Homes get accessorized too, just to enhance beauty like it still does to women. When accessorizing your home, you can pick simple things that can make your house look classy and outstanding. For that “wow factor”, play with the colors and consider balance, and pick the perfect spots where to place your accessories.

Change is as good as rest and the leaps and bounds are satisfying. It does not have to be expensive to be classy. You can pull a high-end look with simple DIYs and bring out quality furnishing in your space. If you’re not good at makeovers, you can always get recommendations from a good interior designer to help bring the glam back to your dream house.
