Taking the time to sort through and declutter your space will make a huge difference. From cramped and chaotic to calm and peaceful, you will immediately see an improvement with the excess cleared. <\/span><\/p>\n

Find creative ways to store your items in cute and colorful baskets and set aside anything that you\u2019d like to donate. If you need a hand with organization or donation pick up, you can call professional organizers<\/a> for that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Apply a fresh coat of paint\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

A coat of paint can work wonders in any space. Choosing the right color can reflect your style and change your mood. If you pick a lighter shade, it can make your space feel open and airy, while if you pick a pop of color, it can put a smile on your face when you walk into the room. <\/span><\/p>\n

Painting not your thing? We have <\/span>professional pros<\/span><\/a> available to paint any wall in your home.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Use updated fabrics\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

From rugs and beddings to curtains\u2026 swapping out colors and textures can change the look of any room and make your home feel brand new. If you mix in some patterns, it can change the visual interest of your space. <\/span><\/p>\n

Not good with decorating? Finding an <\/span>interior decorator<\/span><\/a> to visualize the space might just be the ticket!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Rearrange furniture\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Feng shui is definitely something to consider, and even just experimenting with different layouts can really maximize your space. <\/span><\/p>\n

Also, consider swapping out furniture for more usable items that would work in your space, such as an extra large bookshelf for a loveseat couch. If you have a new item to assemble or need a hand rearranging, find a <\/span>skilled furniture assembler<\/span><\/a>\u00a0for the job.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Add in greenery\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

We cannot stress enough how much greenery transforms a space. A vibrant green breath of life in your home can make all the difference in making it feel like new. <\/span><\/p>\n

Look around for different types of greenery and asses your skill level – if you are likely to forget watering, you might opt for a very forgiving plant. Make sure your plants are taken care of when you\u2019re away, and hire a handy <\/span>plant sitter<\/span><\/a>!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Upgrade your lighting\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

A heavy, outdated lighting fixture can truly shrink a room. Want to make your space light and airy? Consider getting a modern fixture with clear lightbulbs to open the space and make it even brighter. <\/span><\/p>\n

Make your lighting fixtures consistent throughout your home by choosing a metal or color to use throughout. Need some help choosing your fixtures? A <\/span>handy Tasker<\/span><\/a> might be just what you need.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Incorporate art and personal touches<\/span><\/h2>\n

Add in that gallery wall you\u2019ve always wanted, or hang up those art pieces that might be in your garage. Or finally, print out your vacation pictures and hang them on your wall! <\/span><\/p>\n

All these personal touches will touch up your home and make it feel like a new space. Don\u2019t trust yourself hanging a picture<\/a> straight? You can call a Tasker for that!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

8. Upgrade those small details\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
