2. The most effective makeover potion is paint. Rather than repainting the entire of a room, paint one wall using a focal color, or paint a rectangle above a sofa in a contrasting color, to use it as “gallery” space. You can paint the inner area of bookshelves in a contrasting color, or paint the ceiling in a lighter shade of the room's wall color. You can update your kitchen or any other area of your home using paint.
3. A bouquet of colorful flowers placed in an equally attractive resin vase, strikingly adds interest to a room. Make a room appealing inexpensively by placing a vibrant flower bouquet in it. You can also decorate a room using die cut flowers, instead of real ones, or choose to have both types, placed appropriately. To create die cut flowers, all you need to have are dies, a die cutting machine and a dieboard.

4. Renew the window dressings. There are many home stores that offer a wide range of readymade draperies, which can be hemmed to the correct size. Alternatively, you can create them on your own using lengths or sheets of designer outlet fabric. Hang them from a new and attractive curtain rod, which come in stock sizes.
5. Add interest to a room by selecting two contrasting colors like white and black, or white and a bright color. Use them in the form of a repeating theme, like a row of white and yellow pillows over a sofa, or all-white furnishings and robin egg blue walls.
6. An easy and effective tip – Edit the accessories. Too much of anything good is too much. Take all your home decoration accessories and put them inside a box. Then, put the accessories one by one at places where they are likely to create the most impact.
7. Take all your paintings and other pieces of art down, and place them on different walls or in different rooms. This would make you feel as if you are looking at the paintings for the first time.

9. If your living room has less free space, you can use transparent coffee tables for giving an uncluttered look to the room.
10. Add some visual and tactile interest to your living room by opting for a patterned rug.
