4 Ways to Make Your Home Look Elegant

​When you flip through home magazines, you will probably see interior designs that are classic, elegant, chic, and expensive-looking. Although you want to apply the same style to your home, you’re still worried about spending a lot of money. But hold on!

According to experts, you don’t really need to spend tons of money just to achieve the elegant look. Instead, you just have to follow these 4 easy steps and make your dream style come to life:

1. Go neutral
   Painting your walls with neutral colors is the best tip! You can choose from gray, black, white, beige, ivory, and taupe shades. This way, the background of your home will be neutral and not that noticeable. This is the technique to enhance your artworks and other decorations hung on the wall.
   
   
2. Recover your old furniture and update fixtures
   Instead of buying new sets of furniture, you can just recover and update your old pieces of furniture. You can have them repainted either in black or white or have them reupholstered. Apart from that, you can also update your hardware and fixtures in the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. Simply change the facing of the cabinet doors and add some hardware to make it more elegant-looking. You can also repaint it with the same color as your furniture.
   
   
3. Never over decorate
   The common saying, “less is more” should also be applied in decorating your home. You can add a coffee table in your living room and put some of your favorite books or a vase of flowers as a centerpiece. 
   
   Experts always warn homeowners about the impulse of over decorating the house. Overcrowding your home with decorations don’t look elegant, but sticking to fewer but functional furniture does.
   
   
4. Add luxe-looking accents
   These accents include wallpaper, flooring, and lighting. One tip is for you to add brass to your rods. You can replace your entryway with marble flooring, add a nice wallpaper to your bedroom, and install two beautiful side lamps to your headboard. 
   
   Also, you can add a mini library section with a nice warm lighting if you love reading. This way, you can highlight your hobby while still maintaining the elegant aesthetics of your home.
