I do love when a blog I respect reaches out and asks for an expert opinion for a feature. And so I was so delighted to hear from Apartment guide asking me to contribute a tip to feature in their article on 10 top tips for finding and making budget wall decor.
As you know I love creating amazing interiors. even more so if the budget is tight. It really gets the creative juices flowing. Not only that but it’s also a test on how creative you can be when spend is a consideration. There’s a time to splurge when it comes to the big ticket items just as the shoes and handbag make the outfit. The rest we can scrimp a little on. It’s the same with interiors, put your spend into the large items and they will lift the rest. Elevating the ordinary.
If you haven’t heard of Apartment Guide I thoroughly recommend a read. It really full of great interior and home decor reads. So what do you think my top tip is??? I’m sure you’ve already guessed as it’s blatantly obvious. But just to dot the ‘i’s’ and cross the ‘t’s’ her it is.
My go-to fix for a dull wall that needs brightening up is most definitely imitation gold leaf,” says Rachel from the interior design blog.
Affordable and yet amazingly effective, gold leaf adds not only a touch of luxury and glamor to your home but it’s easy to apply and enjoyable, too.
Rachel suggests that you, “Use it to create a feature wall or go bold with colour blocking, either work. It’s also a great way to frame your favourite pieces of art too.”
I do hope you pop over to have a read of 10 tips feature on Apartment Guide. It has some fabulous ideas, hints and tips.
