Ways to Spice Up Your Room

Being home 24*7, not knowing when you’ll be able to set foot outside? You can redecorate your room! I don’t know about you, but being in my room had DEFINITELY made me dislike my room and be a bit bored of it. You can always add or replace small things in your room to freshen it up a little when a full-fledged paint job and makeover is not possible! Our rooms are where we spend most of the time and still they end up being ignored more often than not!

Start by getting on Pinterest or Tumblr or any other app for some décor inspo, pin things, write down what you want to do, create the theme you want in your room.

Here’s what you should do next –

  • Play with the layout of furniture – Shifting you bed to a different place, moving your dresser or table and other furniture will instantly make your room feel a little different, a little new. It changes the layout of the room, therefore makes it feel fresh and new!
  • Add paintings or pictures – everyone has a bit of an artist in them, make paintings and put them on your wall as a collage. Maybe you’re not one for paintings, find old pictures from albums, or pictures that inspire you from magazines and create a masterpiece on your wall. This is a great way to personalize and make your room truly YOUR OWN!
  • Fairy Lights – lighting definitely does make all the difference. I personally LOVE having fairy lights in my room. You can string them around furniture, or even on your wall in a shape.
  • DIY Canopy – canopies tend to make rooms look 100 times dreamier and softer! I used old net curtains and a string of led lights to make one above the headboard of my bed! Another option is using colorful bedsheets for a more vibrant canopy with string lights.
  • Books as décor – clean and color coordinate your books and arrange them on your shelves. You have an aesthetic display and somewhere to keep your books! 2 in 1 décor and organization idea!
  • Picture collage – this idea can be incorporated anywhere you want. A wall, the doors of your closet, or as in my case – my room’s door itself! String a bunch of twine on your door with push pins and clip on some pictures with some of your most favorite memories!
  • Greenery – add some plants, fake or real depends on your choice! Plants elevate a room ten times more and I can guarantee that. My mother has little plants ALL over the house! You can add a bunch of fake flowers in a beautiful vase and set it on a shelf. A very easy way to adding real plants is through a money plant. Every household tends to have atleast one money plant. Cut up a little sapling from near the root of the plant and put it in a vase or bottle filled up with water and you’re done!
