Looking for a speedy way to give a ‘blah’ room a stylish boost? Most of these fab quick fixes can be done over the weekend…
Colour confidential…
Brighten up an all-white kitchen by giving the chairs around your table a fresh coat of paint in a cheerful, on-trend colour. As these chairs had a lot of intricate detail, they were spray-painted by a contractor to give a smooth, even finish, but if you’re handy with a paintbrush you can do it yourself.
Picture this…
To give your patio a more furnished look, make a feature walls. Use a table or cabinet as a base, arrange pictures above it making sure they’re in proportion to the piece of furniture below and then accessorise with items in complementary colours and textures. Here, decorator Lisa Walters added two wall-mounted lanterns to balance the overall composition.
Bright idea…
You can update a room just by replacing outdated table lamps with more contemporary designs. Make a statement with large over-scaled lamps such as the one in this hallway decorated by Peter Thomas Interiors.
Rite of passage…
Do you have a boring, blank wall at the end of the passage in your home? Turn it into a feature with a piece of furniture such as a vintage table, a few pieces of wall art and a beautiful plant.
Artistic bathroom…
There are endless possibilities for giving your guest bathroom a stylish look. In this instance, The soft delicate wallpaper creates a very warm dainty feel in the bathroom, giving it quite a bit of character.
