- Soft indoor lights
Adding soft lights in your home is a great way to improve your wellbeing and reduce your stress levels. Soft lights create a cozier, more welcoming and relaxing atmosphere.
There are several affordable ways to replace bright and harsh lights with softer ones.
Great and inexpensive soft lights include fairy lights, candles and small lamps. To avoid any fire hazards, you might want to opt for flameless candles.
You do not need to purchase new lamps to improve your indoor lighting. You can simply replace the lightbulbs of your existing lamps with softer ones to create a nicer atmosphere.
You can also purchase some new lamp shades to soften the light of your existing lamps.
- Textures
You can easily improve your home by adding more textures and playing with different layers, colors and textiles.
For example, you can play with textures by combining softer ones with crisper, slightly rougher textiles like linen.
A combination of soft and rougher textiles helps create a richer interior design. Your room will soon appear sophisticated and elegant.
That being said, avoid adding too many different textures and colors in one room.
Stick to two or three different textures and colors and reassess from there. Otherwise, your room might feel overwhelming and chaotic.
- Gallery wall
A gallery wall is a great way to enhance your home. Gallery walls are easy and pretty affordable to make.
All you need is some artwork that you like or photographs that you enjoy looking at. Put these in some nice frames and hang them next to each other on one wall.
For a sophisticated gallery wall, try to select artwork and photographs of high-quality and that complement each other either in color or in terms of theme.
Feel free to play around with your gallery wall and regularly change what you put in the frames until you’re happy with the overall look.
