Give second life to your home accessories to beautify your house, says an expert.
Swati
Gupta, interior designer, Stitchwood.com, shares how to revive your old
furniture and accessories give a fresh look to your home without
spending a fortune:
Add some character to your old and dull
furniture by painting them with bright colours or by experimenting with
bold textures. You can also go for colourful upholstery.
If you
have an old coffee table that has been losing its charm, then turn it
into a classy bench. All you have to do is paint the frame and get a
comfortable cushion attached on the top.
You can give a second
life to your chipped plates and mugs by breaking them into tiny pieces
and beautifully arranging them in patterns. Stick them on flower pots or
side tables.
Take out your ladder and place some wooden planks
on its each level. By doing this you can create a rustic bookshelf for
yourself.
We all end up having spare bottles of jams and pickles
at home. Instead of throwing them away, you can turn them into lamp
shades. You can either hang them from the ceiling or place them
individually in your house.
