1. Display your cooking utensils

Everyone has utensils at home, right? Well then, arrange them nicely in your kitchen! It can be anything from a tin vase for your spoons, to a wooden board with hooks that hangs your knives and pans. The idea is to make use of your utensils in decorating. Now, you no longer have to buy extra decorations to doll up your kitchen. Plus, you even get more cooking and prepping space!

2. Framed prints

Have you ever spent hours scrolling through the internet looking at pictures? Have you ever shared them on social media? If you have, it should be very easy to find decorations for your house. Just look for high-resolution pictures with nice phrases, landscapes, animals, or shades of colors you like. Afterwards, all you need to do is print and frame them on your plain wall!

3. Use baskets for storage and decoration

Baskets or boxes are the perfect options that kill two birds with one stone. Practical and artistic; they allow you to organize your belongings while leveraging the aesthetics of the room!

4. Wait for sales

Whether you are buying decorations or furnitures, everything that is not urgent can wait until sales season kicks in. There are many products out there that go down half the price during promotions. If you wish to shop, shop wisely. Keep your budget constant, but spend it on way more things. 

5. Online shopping

7. Purchase the ones with flaws

Sometimes, stores offer furniture, textiles or decorations with slight defects at a way lower price. It is understandable and fair. But when the defect is so small and hardly noticeable, why spend more on a perfect piece if you cannot even tell the difference? Again, shop wisely!

8. Make your own headboard
