5 Low-Budget Hacks to Spruce Up Your Home

Adding a personal touch to your new The Sen condo doesn’t have to be expensive. With a few creative activities and smart thinking, you can turn your house into a cozy private space for comfort and relaxation. Here are five hacks to try.

Add Some Plants

Indoor plants are perfect for that pop of color and life. Opt for hardy plants such as the ZZ plant or snake plant if you don’t have lots of time. As an added bonus, these plants provide health benefits as well. Buy affordable pots or ready-made ones, or repurpose old baskets and tins. Put them in places where there are blank spaces.

From Traditional to LED

Now is the time to switch from traditional incandescent lights to LED bulbs. Aside from being brighter, LED lights last longer and use up less electricity. Make it a point to replace all your most-used lights with their LED counterparts as soon as you can.

Get New Curtains

A new set of curtains can instantly add much-needed ambiance to any room. You can change the ones in the living room or bedroom and immediately notice the difference. Blackout curtains are great for improving sleep quality, while thinner ones allow air to come in from outside during hot summer days.

Replace Your Bed and Couch

Couches and beds are typically replaced every five to ten years, including the upholstery and mattress. It’s important that you don’t forget this, or otherwise sleep quality will decrease. You should replace them more often if you have little ones or pets in your condo.

Custom Wall Art

Liven your condo walls with some art that’s to your liking. You can either print photos or art, or create your own. Alternatively, you can hunt down rare and unique pieces in thrift shops or the local crafts market.
