Refresh with New Sheets
Refresh your bedroom with new sheets. My favorites are white hotel-style sheets with a colored border. They have such a classic look; you can buy them anywhere.
Paint Curtain Rods
Paint rods and rings with a color that complements the curtains. Rub the paint on with a rag — it creates a softer effect.
Wallpaper the Back of Shelves
Paper the back of a cabinet or bookshelf in faux-snakeskin, crocodile, or ostrich. Paint can't come close to the impact. It will inspire you to rearrange your shelves.
Remove Rugs
Get a carpet remnant and put it down in an unusual place, like a patio or balcony. Or take up some of your rugs. Bare wood and stone floors can be just as beautiful.
Accessorize with Books
Stack art, design, gardening, travel books — whatever you collect — on a table. Books are my favorite accessory because they're so personal — they reflect your interests.
Remove Upper Cabinet Doors
Remove upper doors. Arrange your dishes and glasses in an interesting way. Put miscellaneous items in low wicker baskets that are all uniform.
