For readers looking to update
their style, what are some easy
things they can implement?
What are your tips for deciding
on a style or theme to suit a
home interior?
What are the most common
mistakes people make when
changing their home styling?
Painting the space is a quick and
inexpensive way to update any room.
Changing the details is another quick
and easy way to update – new lighting
or updating the handles on kitchen and
bathroom cabinets make a big difference.
Changing soft furnishings such as bed
linen, window treatments and cushions
will really help to update your style.
Firstly, consider what you are working
with. If the home has a really particular
style that isn’t dated and that you like,
work with it. If you are starting from
scratch, then always go with whatever
style you love and follow your instinct.
Try to keep the ‘bones’ of your space
simple, neutral and classic, so that you
won’t tire of it quickly and then have
fun with the layer on top.
I think people make the mistake of
not being clear about how they want
their space to look in the end and not
spending enough time researching their
style and their budget!
