Wouldn't it be fun to redecorate as you "Spring clean?" Few of us can spare the money for many luxuries, so learn to make do and change things to give your home a new look.
  1. Recover sofa pillows and rearrange furniture to your heart's content!
  2. Relocate lighting, even switch curtains from room to room for a new look!
  3. Paint old picture frames for a new look!
  4. Lampshades often look a bit yellowed after a winter of being shut in. Before you pay the proverbial 'arm and a leg' for a new shade, consider trying to improve what you have! With a form paint brush, brush a coat or two of flat white paint unto a plain, yellow shade. Wipe it off with a damp cloth and if the lamp it goes to is on a rod, put it on and twirl it as you paint. You can handpaint trim around top and bottom rim, using paint or even felt markers. You can even draw on various shapes!
