Update Your Accents
When you consider home updates, it’s easy to skip over the tiny details in favor of the big, splashy design moves. But one of our favorite ways to transform a space is by focusing on the tiniest of features: accents and fixtures!
To get started, take inventory of your home. Could your curtain rods be replaced to coordinate or match your style and colors? Try choosing that up your room’s style and complement the rest of the space’s accents. Do you have faded or outdated light switch covers? It’s an easy swap to replace them and will instantly help elevate your space. Try choosing covers that match your wall color, or higher quality pieces that will last. Finally, consider pieces of furniture with scratched, faded or uncoordinated knobs and pulls. Unscrew the outdated pieces and replace them with modern, trendy alternatives. Pro Tip: use matching or complementary metals (such as all gold or gold and black) in a room to make your space come together!
- Update old or outdated knobs and pulls on furniture such as dressers, cabinets, or chests.
- Swap out light switch panels for brand new covers that blend seamlessly into your room.
- Choose curtain rods that match your style and coordinate with other accents in your space.
- Match or coordinate your metals to give your room consistency.
