Below you will find 8 simple ideas to decorate your home with items you already have without spending any money.

#1) Pull out your souvenirs from summer trips and holidays (such as shells, starfish etc), incorporating them into compositions and decorative baskets which add a more personal touch to the décor and also reflect happy memories and experiences of your life. You can also start to create a collection of small bottles which you can fill with sand from the areas visited.

#2) Use wallpaper to cover the back of a boring library shelving, which will be turned into a stylish decorated furniture and will highlight the objects placed on it.

#3) Utilize glass bottles and jars that you are not using anymore. Pick those that have similar color shades to give a uniform picture and blend them harmoniously with your space. The appropriate flowers will help with this if you choose to use the bottles as vases.

#4) Put color and a vibrant touch to a room in the simplest way: add colored stripes on monochromatic lighting or around a simple glass vase to renew it.

#5) Pull out your grandma’s old dishes or those you no longer use and create a composition with mismatched utensils. This will give a pop touch over your bed or on the wall of your living room.

#6) Use your old wooden hangers for a more elegant and unique way to hang posters in your room, giving a more handmade and unique touch to the wall.

#7) If you have a fireplace which has fallen into disuse for some time, you can cover the untapped space with books and give the impression of a unique library.

#8) Pull out your old colored blankets you do not use and place them on uncovered benches or on your sofa to create a cozy and warm atmosphere.
