Quick Fixes to Transform Your Living Room — If you are looking to make a change in your living room, there are some really easy solutions which produce amazing results. Some of these are fairly cheap and you can do them on your own, whereas some require some investment.

Quick Fixes to Transform Your Living Room

Regardless of the option you choose, it’s important that you feel comfortable in the resulting room, so make sure you tailor it to your needs, rather than some passing trends which you don’t enjoy.

Painting

The simplest and the cheapest way to transform the room is to give it a paint-job. Depending on the tone you want your room to have, you can pick different colors, but generally lighter colors are chosen for this area as they promote lighting of the room.

If you feel especially creative, you can add accents around your doors and windows in some bolder color. Wooden surfaces can be painted, too. However, most people prefer to keep the natural color of the wood and only lacquer it with varnish to make it shine.

Change the Sofa

The biggest piece of furniture in your living room is probably the sofa. Thus, changing it can give the room a whole new tone. A really popular choice are sectional sofas. These are typically fairly big and can curve around the other pieces of furniture such as the coffee table. You can find some great sectional sofas here https://www.skylarshomeandpatio.com/collections/custom-sectionals-sofas-san-diego.

Flooring

On the more expensive end of the spectrum is changing the flooring in your living room. If you have hardwood floors, this can be fairly expensive and time-consuming, but the end result is sure to be nothing short of amazing.

However, changing your flooring doesn’t need to break the bank. If you use carpets, replacing it is far less expensive than installing or replacing hardwood floors. It also gives you more options in terms of decoration.

Add a Skylight

If you feel like there isn’t enough light in your living room, you can change that by adding a skylight. Not only will it let in more natural light, but it will also increase the value of your home if you ever feel like selling it.

You must be careful about the placement, however. If the wind always blows from a particular side, you don’t want a skylight there. You also need to make sure that there aren’t any support beams in the way of your ideal place for a skylight. Make sure the quality of the skylight is good, as well as the contractor you select for this job.

Add Mirrors

Mirrors are often used to give the room an appearance of larger spaces, as well as helping with the lighting. You can add mirrors by yourself, or have the help of an interior decorator.

Change lighting

Finally, if you feel like your lighting is insufficient or uneconomical, you can always change it. More and more people are opting for low-voltage lighting, or LED in order to reduce their electricity bill and help save the environment. This change can also help make your house more ‘green’ and thus increase its value slightly.

Accent lights are a very popular and effective way to draw attention to certain areas of your walls, typically to some artwork or family photos. These lights are most commonly LEDs, meaning they don’t use much electricity, so your bill shouldn’t be much affected if you choose to install these.

Your ultimate goal should be the room where you will want to spend time, without sacrificing functionality. One last piece of advice; it is always a good idea to have a plan before you start, to make sure your end result is consistent and aesthetical.
