Decorating Ideas for A New Home In Vancouver


Blog by Antonio Vargas | January 2nd, 2017


If you have just purchased a new home in Vancouver, firstly, congratulations! Secondly, you will probably be looking for ideas on how to decorate your new home.

Well, the good news is that there are many ways to personalize and decorate your new home without spending a fortune as there are many great stores in Vancouver where you can find some well-priced bargains.

However, before you head off to these stores, evaluate what you have already and consider if you could make a change by rearranging or recycling. For instance, try taking a vase that you have always had on the dining table and place it on your dresser. You may then even want to spray paint it or paint it another color with some glass paint. The key here is experimentation!

Winter in Vancouver is a great time to spend indoors giving a facelift to tired, old rooms. If you do not like the look of your kitchen or bathroom, why not give it a new lease on life by painting the cabinets a fresh color or even just changing out the faucets or cabinet handles? You’d be surprised at what a difference this makes!

Color is very important when decorating which is why it is a great idea to group household items together (such as ornaments, scatter cushions or even books) to create uniformity and a sense of beautiful order. This can also be done in the kitchen by arranging gadgets of the same color together to look like you had a preexisting plan!

Need to paint? Why not get creative and have an accent wall for a visually explosive effect. You could also do the same by painting only a single piece of furniture. Remember, it is all about letting your creative juices flow and not about spending a fortune!
