Wood panelling is one of the most popular interior trends at the moment. While panelling is a very common feature of Victorian houses, it’s now been making an appearance in all different home styles.

2. Replace your tiles

Are your tiles looking a little dated? Perhaps they were there when you moved in, and you want to switch them up! Tiling is a job you can do yourself, you just need the right tools and a little patience. It’s easy to transform your home with marble tiles, and whether you’re looking to tile your floors, bathroom or kitchen, it can be a simple way to update your home. Replacing your tiles can be very affordable, helping you give your home a fresh look without breaking the bank. 

3. Upcycle your furniture

Have you ever tried upcycling furniture? It’s easier than you might expect! There are some amazing paint ranges out there like Frenchic and Rust-Oleum that have all-surface paints that make upcycling a breeze. Wooden items can be sanded down and repainted or coated to give a fresh look, while new hardware can also make your furniture better suited to your decor. Once you get the upcycling bug, you’ll want to start transforming everything in sight!

4. Restore your wooden floors

Do you have wooden floors lurking beneath your carpet? Maybe it’s time to restore them and set them free! Wooden floors are expensive to bring into your home, so if you already have them, why not make the most of them? Restoring hardwood floors can be a very enjoyable DIY task, leaving you with beautiful floors you can be proud of.
