There’s nothing like an interior overhaul to bring a fresh mood to your home, but it can be hard to know where to start to create the vibe you’re after. New lighting fixtures? Maybe a rug? Do you need to paint all the walls, or will a cheeky trip to Kmart do the job? Before you get overwhelmed by detail step back from the products, and start by scrolling the ‘gram, but don’t just look at the pretty pictures.
