7 Affordable Ways to Glam up Your Home

You don’t have to be a movie star or a famous pop singer to have a glamorous home. You can add a touch of luxury to your space without actually going broke. The sooner you realise that glamour and style aren’t about the price, the sooner you’ll be browsing through endless inspiring ideas. Instead, you should focus on carefully picked details and designs that will help you capture the essence of glamour and create an indulgent atmosphere in your home.

Decorate with gold finish

Replacing the hardware is one of the simplest and most cost-effective changes that you can make. Despite being a simple update, new hardware will introduce a sense of novelty and a touch of luxury to your space. And nothing says glamour and style like gold. Introducing just a few gold embellishments will create a feeling of sophistication and elegance in your space. This can be as simple as spraying your old pieces with gold spray paint. On the other hand, you can introduce fabrics and details in gold colour or with a gold finish.

Invest in glamorous pieces

When decorating on a budget, you have all the freedom to splurge on one or two pieces that will work as the focal points in your home. Whether it’s a stunning crystal chandelier in your dining room, an elegant bathtub in your bathroom or an enticing headboard in your master bedroom, a single piece can be a mesmerising detail that can transform your entire space.

Style up your bathroom

Elegant, pristine bathrooms are a standard in luxurious homes, so you should definitely take some time to create a spa- or retreat-inspired look in yours. Sometimes, all it takes is a stunning focal point that will dominate the entire bathroom. For instance, simple yet sophisticated bathtubs always come into focus in modern bathrooms, exuding luxury and relaxation. Introducing one to your personal spa will help you create an understated but powerful design statement, adding a sense of glamour to your bathroom. Other possible ways to style up your bathroom include replacing the hardware, introducing soft towels, adding scented candles and installing subtle lighting.

Paint with luxurious colours

Certain colours can also help you create a glamorous look in your home. For instance, black-and-white designs can seem infinitely stylish and elegant, especially when paired up with gold accents. All-white and neutral palettes can create a subtle yet classic look that will give your space a timeless, elegant appeal. On the other hand, if you want to add a pop of colour to your space, you can go with royal or jewel tones, such as navy blue, deep green, regal red or lush purple. Introducing them through stylish details, such as accent walls, decorative details and area rugs, will create a perfectly balanced atmosphere.

Add an area rug

Area rugs are one of the easiest décor ideas that you can use to capture the essence of a particular style in your home. You can use to create a layered, deep look in any room of your home, add a splash of colour or break up a monotonous space with a stunning patterned design. There’s plenty of stunning area rug trends that will help you create a lush vibe in your home. Implementing an antique area rug is a trendy yet affordable solution, so don’t be afraid to go vintage and retro. You probably have an old, slightly worn-out rug that is bound to elevate your home décor to a glamorous level.

Go with lush textile

Layering lush textiles will help you create a truly sumptuous vibe in your home. Fabrics, such as velvet, silk and satin, will help you glam up your home in a heartbeat. In addition, they will create a comfortable, cosy look that will inspire relaxation. You can use them for accent details, such as throw pillows and covers, for a rich appeal. If you set such lush textiles against, for instance, leather, they will soften its look and truly stand out.

Embellish your walls with wallpapers

Wallpapers have made a comeback and have become one of the hottest trends on the design scene. Not only can they completely transform your space, but they are also an affordable solution that will undoubtedly create an authentic visual appeal in your home. You can find wallpaper designs with a golden or metallic finish to add some glitz and glamour to your home. You can also use them to transform your ceiling into a design statement or introduce an intricate pattern to your home.

Adding a touch of glamour to your home will make you feel as if you were in a boutique hotel. And the best thing is that you can do it in a budget-friendly way.
