Thinking of entertaining family and friends more this year but feel like your space needs a little update? You don’t have to invest in a remodel or go broke to give your home a fresh new look. With a little rearranging and a few updates, you can have the space everyone will love and feel comfortable in.

Try adding some plants. They bring a new energy and help clean the air. Using large flowering agapanthus or potted palm in a decorative planter that complements your existing color scheme will do the trick.

Pull out a new accent color from your existing décor, pick one that is underused in the room and add more of it such as a new pillow or throw. A colorful rug can also make the whole room seem fresh.
