Home is where the heart is. Home is also where we are all finding ourselves at more of these days. It might be making you more aware of things you like and things you don’t like so much with your own decor. So if you are looking for some ways to keep your home feeling happy and energized, why not try some instant redecorating? All these 15 ideas can be done without even leaving the home AND make use of what you already possess.

1 Create Instant (Free) Art

If you are staring at bare walls day in day out, you might realize how desperate you are for some wall art. Luckily you can DIY yourself some great looking art to cheer up your lonely walls. Try your hand at a modern black painting with a few simple brushstrokes. Or, let the brush lead you and see what colorful creation you come up with. Can also find free botanical prints, vintage landscapes, or art prints online to print and frame.

2 Gallery Wall of Art

With the newly created art you made from above, consider creating gallery of art to display on a wall in your home. Make use of unconventional art you may have too, like woven baskets, vintage mirrors, black and white family photos when considering the kind of style you want to go for.

3 Rearrange Your Furniture

For quick, but dramatic way to transform a room, switch up your furniture layout. It can be a fresh way to make a room look new with using what you already have. Maybe make that little reading nook you’ve always wanted with that corner of a room that is never used?

4 Restyle Your Coffee Table

One of the best ways to add some style to your room - the coffee table. You look at it every day, it is right there in the middle of the room, so a quick update to it can re-energize the space. The best part is there are unlimited ways to showcase your style and using what you already have it home will allow you to showcase your creativity! You can utilize a tray to pair a collection of items together which also helps to frame a coffee table “look” and create cohesion, or style straight onto the tabletop — large hardback books can be stacked and paired with common items you probably already have at home - like a plant, candlesticks, vase, or decorative bowl.

5 Declutter a Bookshelf

You always say you’re going to clean up that bookshelf and now is the perfect time! Go for a theme, showcase your style, or just lesson some of the chotchkies in your display. For some inspiration, check out this post all about bookshelf styling.

6 Serve up Style with a Kitchen Vignette

Add some interest to your kitchen countertop with a nice collection of items you already own - wood cutting boards, glass pitchers or bowls, decorative tray, glass vases — all work for adding instant kitchen style. I love this beautiful look from Decor Gold Designs that groups white serveware with flowers and fruit for a cheery and chic spring look!

7 Add Some Green

Adding some greenery to any room will always be a no-fail way to liven up a space. Consider a shelf, coffee table, bedside table, & entryway space when looking to brighten up a room. Whether faux or real, potted or stems in a vase, the addition of natural elements like plants will always make a room better!

8 Create an inspiring workspace

Working from home can be challenging lately, especially since you are finding yourself there all the time. So an inviting and creating space that allows you to still be productive is a surefire way to stay on track with work! And a simple workspace can be achieved even in a small space or multi-use room, like a bedroom below.

9 Decorate a Mantel

Give your mantel a spring refresh with a new look — add some flowers, greenery, and fresh art piece for an instant change. I like this simple, chic look below from Park and Oak Interior Design.

10 Restyle the Entryway

If you haven’t changed your entryway in awhile, consider tweaking it with a different tabletop look for an entryway table. For 4 different looks to further inspire you, check out this post for styling with a console table in the entryway.

11 Same Furniture,New Room

That accent chair you never use, consider moving it to a different room. You might be surprised how different it can look in a new place. Can also swap out area rugs for a dramatic impact!

12 Update an Old Piece of Furniture

If you have a dated piece of furniture, and you have some paint at home, give your furniture new life with a fresh coat of paint. I modernized some kitchen stools below for quite the dramatic makeover!

13 Organize (and style) a Closet

Who says a closet doesn’t deserve some style too? Organize a closet like that linen closet disaster you keep meaning to get to or the kitchen cupboard or your own closet and utilize any bins and baskets you already have that might be better served with your organizational goals! Here’s some inspiration specifically for the linen closet.

14 Style a Bar “Cart”

You have a nice little collection of spirits, wine, and chic glasses so why not display them better? You don’t have to buy a wine cart, you can utilize an end table or console table for a new way to ring in happy hour at home!

15 Put Something To a New Use

Open up the possibilities of your own possessions and consider using them in a new way — glass decanters can be used as vases, garden stools can be used as side tables, pottery can be made into beautiful ways to house makeup brushes or other bathroom essentials — the possibilities are endless!
