4 ways to redecorate your home on a budget

First Published:

Now that the weather is finally getting warmer, it feels like a great time to give your indoor space a refresh. Design and lifestyle expert Sarah Gunn shared four simple ways to redecorate your home on a budget.

1. Prep for success

Before redecorating you’ll want to clean your space. Sarah brought along her favourite cleaning products, including the Freedom mop, a traditional corn broom and microfibre cleaning cloths.

2. Flower power

Add flowers to spaces, whether they are real or faux. Flowers and greenery brighten up a space. Sarah’s tip for adding flowers to a space is to keep it simple and only use one type of flower per vase.

3. Frame it

Any easy way to change up your decor is to buy pictures for the season. Invest in a good frame and change the pictures out with the seasons.

4. Little details

Add little details by choosing one or two new pieces to your room and style them for each season.

If you are looking for something to do this weekend check out Gunn & Co. with Sarah at the Rivercroft’s market on Lakeshore road in Oakville this Saturday from 9-1pm and on June 17th!
