As the kids head back to school and the darker evenings start to draw in, autumn is the perfect time to turn your attention back to your home. After a busy summer, this season is all about creating warm, welcoming spaces that you can enjoy with family and friends.
The best part? You don’t need weeks or a huge budget to make a difference. We’ve put together 5 quick DIY projects that can be done in a weekend or less, giving your home a fresh new look in no time at all.
Create a cosy feature wall.
If your living room or bedroom feels a little flat, a feature wall is a simple way to add depth and character. You can achieve a high-end look without the hassle of plaster, paint, or tiles.
Choose a wood finish for a rustic feel, or opt for sleek marble and stone effect if you’re after something more modern. The beauty of wall panels is that they’re quick to install, easy to clean, and instantly transform a space.
Refresh your hallway.
The hallway is the first impression your guests get, and it’s often the most overlooked space in the home.
Install durable wall panels that can handle the scuffs and marks of everyday life, especially when the muddy boots and wet coats start rolling in. Add a new coat rack, some fresh lighting, and perhaps a mirror to brighten things up during darker evenings.
Get rid of those bathroom blues.
Bathroom projects don’t have to be daunting or mean weeks of disruption. We have a wide range of waterproof wall panels that can be fitted directly onto existing tiles. Meaning there’s no need to spend days trying to remove old tile and grout.
Choose a stone or marble finish for that spa-like feel, then complete the look with soft lighting, fluffy towels, and a gorgeous scented candle.
Looking for a home office overhaul?
With the kids back at school, now’s the time to reclaim the corner of the home that’s your hub of productivity. Using acoustic slat wall panels will not only look stylish but also make your video calls look more professional.
Pair your new wall finish with warm-toned accessories, shelves for storage, and a comfortable chair. A little upgrade now can make working from home feel more inspiring.
Styling for the season.
Sometimes, a quick styling refresh can completely change the feel of a room. We have all seen the cute and cosy autumn additions to our high street stores, so styling for the season has never been easier.
Add cosy throws, cushions, and rugs in autumnal colours. Decorate and accessorise with pumpkins, candles, or natural foliage to bring the outside in.
DIY doesn’t have to be complicated. In a short amount of time and with the right products, you can make your home look and feel brand new this autumn.
