Everyone wants their home to look classy, and for guests to see the care put into its presentation. However, you don’t always need to spend a lot of money to give your home the right look. Whether you’d like to spruce up a house to sell it or kick up the charm for your monthly condo dinner parties, check out these four inexpensive ideas to class up your home.
Unique Paint Combinations
There’s a lot more to indoor painting than a single tone per room. For instance, in an important room, you could paint border tones or filigrees of one color over the edges of the main wall’s paint color. Professional painters can suggest the best ideas to liven up your space, but feel free to experiment based on something you’ve seen elsewhere. Patterns, shapes, textures, you name it, you’ll find good creative wall painting ideas if you look.
Flowers and Plants

Indoor plants can help with air quality and help give a sense of life to a house. Before you take a potted palm tree home, though, see if you can get away with something smaller, like a flower or wild plant arrangement. A colorful bouquet of in-season flowers or plants can serve as a conversation starter. If you live on a property with wildflowers or near ones you can pick, take a few that look nice. You’ll have a nice piece to add character to family weekends or get-togethers.
Add a Living Room Rug
Some area rugs are specifically suited to the living room. You could add a rug over the area between the couch and TV. Make sure it’s at least a little wider than your couch, though. Living room rugs should serve as a focal piece for the area, so make sure it’s big enough to serve that role and that you like the style. You could also further customize with a smaller rug overtop, such as for a living room table. In either case, make sure the main living room rug fits appropriately with the overall room shape and the layout of your home.
Collections and Galleries
Adding an art gallery, such as of a few owned family paintings or paintings you’ve done, can add a classy but approachable touch to your place. If you are good at painting or another visual art, great, but if not, cheap frames are also easily available, and you can just simply print and arrange your favorite photos in a good spot where people are likely to notice and check them out. You can display pretty much anything you care about as a little home gallery, from handmade dolls to painted coffee mugs.
As you can see, small or inexpensive changes or additions can make a real difference in how classy your home looks and feels.
