How to give your room a new look

We all  get fed up with looking at the same space.  However, if you are on a budget you won't have the cash to splash around on new furnishing and redecoration.  Never fear, it's easy to update your room by simply reconfiguring it.




Take a long, hard look at your lounge.  How easy or difficult would it be to move your TV to a different corner of the room?  Most of the rest of the furniture is configured around the telly, if you can move that - you can then think about moving everything else.

So the sofa moves and an armchair goes somewhere else too.  Then before you know it, you realise that the book-case would look better on another wall and the coffee table could go in the centre of the room, not in the corner.

If you can't move the TV because of the aerial then think about swopping the sofa and the armchairs around.  If that won't work, look at your peripheral furniture instead.

Occasional tables, lamps, book cases, sideboards - they can probably be swopped around.  And if they don't easily swop, think about furniture in other rooms.  Would the standard lamp in the dining room look better in the lounge?  That shelving in your bedroom may work better in the dining room.

Once you have moved the furniture - hopefully without spending a penny - you may decide you need a few new soft furnishings.  We always say a new rug is the easiest way to transform a room. FrithRugs has 1000s of rugs in every style, size and budget you can think of - and so you are sure to find something you like.

Finally, a gallery wall will also give an old room the wow factor. You don't even have to use pictures - mirrors, record covers, magazine covers - just use your imagination.

Once your new rug is in-situ and you have a couple of new cushions - you have a room with a whole new look.

It's easy.
