2. Disguise your sofa with a slipcover
There are a number of ready-made slipcovers on the market that can be purchased pretty inexpensively which is obviously much cheaper than buying a new sofa.

3. Modify your existing curtains
Instead of buying entirely new curtains change the look of your existing ones by adding trim, fabric paint or making them longer like Debbiedoo blogger did in this tutorial.
4. Hang prints
Framed prints can really change the look of a room.
Or, try making your own piece of art and frame it to hang on your wall. Check out this creative 3d work of art you can make yourself.
Another option; get some cheap dollar store frames, paint them, then print out your favorite text in large font (or hand write them), and put in a frame.
5. Plants
Foliage not only adds beauty, but it can help improve your home’s air quality.
Have a brown thumb?
You can still enjoy the benefit of greenery without worrying that you’ll kill a living thing.
You can find many different styles of faux greenery, either on sale at one of the craft stores or the dollar store.
Most thrift stores carry fake greenery. If you don’t like the looks of the container your plants are in you can redo them with spray paint, stickers or contact paper to create the look you want.
Don’t be afraid to mix and match different plants until you get the look you want.
Add ribbons, flowers, glass beads, or whatever elements you might be able to find that will help to create a unique potted plant.
6. Shop the sales
Set up an alert so the next time your favorite store has something on sale that you’ve been dying to buy you’ll know.
7. Install wall sconces
Finally, add a touch of elegance with battery powered wall sconces. They install in minutes and can be found in a wide array of styles.
Lantern Lane Designs blogger used rechargeable puck lighting with wall sconces to create a no-electricity-needed lighting solution for her hallway.
