When you move into a new home it can be overwhelming with all the things that need doing, especially if you have moved into one that isn’t decorated to your taste. Luckily, there are some simple things you can do that will make a huge difference to the overall appearance and feel of your home. Keep reading for some top tips to help you turn your new house into somewhere that feels like home.
1. Add some colour

A quick and easy way to add a splash of personality and update your home space is by adding colour. Whether you choose a warming feature wall in your lounge, go dark and peaceful in the bedroom, or light and airy in the kitchen, a lick of paint can make all the difference.
Our London painters and decorators are highly experienced at painting rooms and panelled walls, so allow us to step in and help you. Thanks to our many years of practice, we can even offer advice on the colour palette that would best suit your property. So, if you are unsure, contact us today and we will be happy to offer assistance!
However, if painting isn’t your thing, you could consider using wallpaper, which is another fabulous way to add some personality to your rooms. From patterned feature walls to wallpapering whole rooms, there is so much choice. Geometric patterns can create an eye-catching contemporary aesthetic, or you can’t go wrong with florals for more of a delicate classical look.
2. Create your ambience
Creating ambience in your home can easily be done by adding different styles of lighting and the options are limitless with something out there to suit everyone’s taste. Add a quirky table lamp in the bedroom, a modern standing lamp in the corner of a hallway, a retro bamboo ceiling shade in the lounge or modern hanging lights above a dining room table.
To ensure your home is as energy efficient as possible, make sure to change your lightbulbs to energy-saving bulbs, or if you’re creating a smart home, upgrade to a smart bulb. Our friendly electricians can help with your lighting needs. Get in touch to find out more.
3. Go Green

Houseplants are not only ideal to bring some personality to your spaces, but they are also beneficial as they fill your room with oxygen, help bring nature in and can also make you feel more relaxed.
Add smaller pots and planters to windowsills and shelves or try adding some hanging pots. For larger spaces such as living areas and corridors, taller house plants make a statement and can also be used to draw attention away from other areas.
4. Make It Cosy
Whether the look you are wanting to create is rustic, modern or maximalist you can make your house cosy by adding rugs, blankets, and cushions in your style.
Candles are also amazing for creating a cosy atmosphere and they can be used to add decor to areas of your home. Think floor lanterns in the hallways and tea lights on bathroom ledges.
5. Add Wall Art
One of the simplest and easiest ways to turn your house into your style is by adding wall art around the house. Whether that is posters with your favourite quotes or canvas prints above your bed, there are so many different types of wall art to choose from. You can make a collection around a favourite band or black-and-white wildlife photographs, just think about your favourite things and go from there.
