However, the downside is that you may end up disappointed with the appearance of your home.
And not everyone has the time or money to refresh the room or change the decor.
Luckily, there are decorators who can give you some simple tips for updating your home without spending a fortune.
Painting and interiors expert Lucy Steele, from Valspar Paint, told The Scottish Sun how to transform the décor of each room on a budget.
kitchen
We all know that the kitchen is the heart of the home, so it’s only natural that you want it to look the best it can.
But that doesn’t mean you need to buy a completely new kitchen to keep up with current trends.
According to Lucy, just a lick of paint can make a space feel like a new space.
She said: ‘There’s no need to spend a fortune on a new kitchen. Instead, give your cupboards a bit of ‘sparkle’ with a coat of paint.
“White, such as White Hot, is probably the most versatile of all color choices when it comes to cupboards, as it provides the most versatile style option for any type of kitchen.
“Fresh white kitchen units can brighten up any space, whether it’s ultra-modern or classic and traditional.”
5 things that make your home look cheap
living room
Although the kitchen is the heart of the home, we spend most of our time in the living room.
Since it is often the central room of a place and starts with the walls, it often gets boring quickly.
If you’re starting to feel that way, Lucy recommends adding a feature wall to spruce up the place.
She explains: “If you’re bored with your living room, why not add a feature wall to the space?
“Feature walls can not only highlight interior upholstery, but also bring life and character to any space.
“When creating a feature wall, choose a wall that naturally draws attention, such as the wall with the lowest slope, and try to add subtle contrast, such as adding a darker or more vibrant hue to your existing color scheme. Please.”

Our bedroom is a place to relax, unwind and unwind after a long day.
So if you feel like you’re starting to get stressed out over an outdated look, experts recommend grabbing a paintbrush.
Lucy says: “It may sound simple, but a simple coat of paint on a tired-looking wall can help transform any room in your home, especially your bedroom.
“Whether you stick with the same colors or choose a different color scheme, it’s important that the colors in your bedroom create a calm and calming atmosphere, perfect for a good night’s sleep.”

Installing a new bathroom can be very expensive. So, if you want to refresh your room, try adding some accessories first and save a little money.
Lucy suggests: “While a new bathroom is certainly expensive, there are many other things you can do to renovate your bathroom space without spending a lot of money.
“The key is to incorporate low-cost accessories into your space, such as different colored towels, candles, new soap holders, and even artwork.
