Just like any other part of our life, furnishing or decoration of your house at times can be extremely expensive and time consuming. There are numerous ways through which you can customize your space and just in case, if you are wondering that it will take lots of money. Chill out, believe me, with the right planning it will not cost you a fortune. Here are some of the ways you can furnish your space with spending all of that hard-earned money.
Thrift store
When you want to save money. Thrift stores are your best
friend. Thrift stores are an excellent source through which people can get
their furniture. Yes, I agree that you have to find and look through stuff to
get stuff that you really want. But believe me you can find excellent items
from different eras at the thrift store. Modern and unique. The thrift stores
have goods ranging from glassware to bed sets to dining tables and also the
prices are quite reasonable.
DIY
DIY also known as do it yourself. You can always make stuff
for your apartment in this way you are not only saving money but also adding
your personality to your apartment. When you DIY something for your space you
also feel a sense of accomplishment and it is like marking your space with your
touch. You should consider making some candles, painting, picture frames, some jewelry
boxes and maybe even paint some of the walls if you are into arts and crafts.
Big first
Because there is always a theme that people follow when they
are doing their spaces, so it is mostly advisable to purchase bigger items
first and then go for small Knicks and knacks so that they go with the theme of
the bigger items. The bigger items like beds, couches and dining tables always
draw the attention of people first rather than the bookcases or small stools. So
get bigger furniture first and then apartment according to those pieces.
Thinking outside the box
It does not have to cost you a fortune whenever you are
trying to do your apartments and also you should not be always going for
paneled walls and extravagant ceilings in order to create a vibe for you space
that are really expensive. Leaving the walls with a rough look or not smoothing
out the walls also give a very unique and natural look if you want to save some
of your cash.
Alter your furniture
You can always adjust your furniture according to your needs
the vanity table that once was used to store your makeup can also be used a
stool. Use various patterns, textures, leather, glass and even antique pieces
that your grandma left in order to decorate and furnish your apartment. Mix and
match modern and antique pieces for your apartment.
Set a budget
Setting your budget is a major part because you don’t want
to spend all of your fortune in one room and then sit and look at the walls of
the empty room, Or you don’t want to clutter your apartment with inexpensive
and unnecessary items. Set a specific amount that you are able to spend for
your apartment aside each month and then go on random trips to furniture store
and get something that you like from there. Setting a budget will help you in a
way that with each item that you buy you will consider the price with the
budget that you have made and will be able to stay on the budget.
Avoid buying luxury items
The items that you find in stores are quite expensive for
example a simple candle can be a lot or a tea set can cost you about 100
dollars. You may be able to buy only a few luxury items with your set budget.
So in my opinion it is best to stick to department stores or wholesale dealers
in order to get what you want. These
items may not be very high quality or flashy, but you can get what you want
that is still at trend and is inexpensive from these department store and
wholesalers.
Some other inexpensive ways through you can make your apartment
stand out is by
- Keep it clean
- Keeping the walls clean
- Floors moped
- Everything in its rightful place
- Lighting up a candle
- Nice lighting
- fresh flowers
