Decorate Your Apartment, Save Cash!

May 20, 2015

There are plenty creative ways you can decorate your apartment to “spruce it up”, make it more “open” and “fun” and you can do it on a budget! Here are 5 ideas. If you have any of your own, share them with us!

Floating Hangers

adore-this-old-club-chairNot enough space in your closet or do you have difficulty picking out what you want to wear in the morning as you dig through that mess IN your closet? How about hanging hangers on tacks in the wall and placing some clothing on them. It ads color and dimension to your room and saves time in the morning!

Recycle Wine Bottles

We don’t mean just putting them in the recycle bin, which you should be doing anyway. We mean using some of your bottles for something else! Placed on a shelf in your room, you can wrap bracelets around them. Or, watches!

 

Recycle old Calendar Photos

So, you don’t get to travel and loved that 2014 calendar your mom got you in France that had some AWESOME photos! Use those photos again! Cut them out, get cheap frames and put them up around the apartment. Dream about when you will get to go yourself!

Toiletries in a Shoe Holder

Not enough space in the bathroom for all your “stuff”? Get a shoe holder and hang it on the back of the bathroom door and put your toiletries there! Save counter space and keep your bathroom a little cleaner!

Is That a Shower Curtain as a Window Treatment?

Yes…yes it is. Get a colorful and cheap shower curtain and hang it above your window! You’ll be surprised at how colorful curtains in the bathroom can change your living room!

 

OK…your turn! Give us your ideas!
