The weather is still a bit grey and miserable, and Spring is still a way away. But, the start of a New Year also brings with it a fresh start and sense of revitalisation \u2013 which can be extended to our homes, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To kick-start your year feeling revitalised and renewed, below are 5 top tips to help you refresh your home for the year ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/nathan-oakley-hrMav18bnsc-unsplash-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Vase on wooden draws\" class=\"wp-image-83\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/nathan-oakley-hrMav18bnsc-unsplash-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/nathan-oakley-hrMav18bnsc-unsplash-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/nathan-oakley-hrMav18bnsc-unsplash-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/nathan-oakley-hrMav18bnsc-unsplash.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. A fresh lick of paint<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Paint is the easiest and most cost-effective way to update your home. A fresh colour can totally transform a space and how it feels. For maximum impact, opt for a feature wall in a bold or statement colour, or opt for a softer colour update around the full room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re not wanting to redecorate a full room, why not use some leftover paint to upcycling pieces around your home? An upcycle project can be anything from an old piece of furniture to a plant pot, and a quick coat of paint can give it a new lease of life \u2013 and a new purpose in your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Update your accessories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The finishing touches in a room are what brings a scheme together \u2013 so it\u2019s no surprise that making a few small updates around your home in these areas can also make it feel like you\u2019ve got a whole new space to enjoy! Try adding some hanging plants to shelves or switch up the prints in your frames. Even adding some candles or lamps can make the world of difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need inspiration on how to pull your new accessories together within a scheme, take a look at this blog post:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/blog\/the-seven-elements-of-great-design.html\">The 7 Elements of Great Design<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/greg-rivers-upekOABr32I-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"Plant pots on coffee tables \" class=\"wp-image-61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/greg-rivers-upekOABr32I-unsplash.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/greg-rivers-upekOABr32I-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/greg-rivers-upekOABr32I-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Re-arrange your existing d\u00e9cor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The purse strings are often a little tight after Christmas, so if you don\u2019t have the budget to splash out on new accessories, try switching around your existing d\u00e9cor pieces with each other. That plant in your bedroom might be the perfect finishing touch for your hallway \u2013 or what about swapping out the cushions in your bedroom for the ones on your sofa?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can be creative here and even re-purpose items. It may seem silly but switching up the d\u00e9cor between rooms in your house can often make it feel like you\u2019ve got a whole new bunch of accessories \u2013 all without spending a penny!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Spring clean and de-clutter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the official start of Spring is still a while away, a deep clean and declutter can do the world of good \u2013 especially if you\u2019re still working from home. Having a tidy and organised space will not only improve your productivity but also help you feel more relaxed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be a daunting task, so try to tackle one room at a time. Be sure to clean under all your furniture and tidy any roaming items off your surfaces. Kitchens and bathrooms are often the main source of clutter, so try giving away any unwanted items and use storage containers to house any items you have left. If you want to go one step further, then try getting the label maker out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/sanibell-bv-WeTkTRnz3aM-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"Double sink \" class=\"wp-image-90\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/sanibell-bv-WeTkTRnz3aM-unsplash.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/sanibell-bv-WeTkTRnz3aM-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.styledinteriordesign.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/sanibell-bv-WeTkTRnz3aM-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.
