The beauty of interior design is that it looks expensive and not always expensive. If you are looking for an affordable way to refresh your space, here are some tips for designing recipes, all for less than $100.

Whether you use mirrors horizontally to expand the space, vertical mirrors to increase height, or grid patterns to mimic windows, this is a great way to reflect light and colors in the space.

Wallpaper is still a hot trend. Not sure you want to take a risk? Try to use removable or temporary wallpaper.

Industrial piping can be used for everything from ladder rungs to helping support shelves.

Curtains made of drip cloth

Who doesn't like seamless curtains? Drapes are the ideal cotton weight for curtains, especially for those seeking privacy. Take some curtain pins, fix them on a pole, add buttonholes, and you are ready to go!

From recycled wood to skateboards in children’s rooms or family spaces, it’s time to get creative.

Tiny succulents can survive for weeks or even months. Match them with the pure white sand in glass jars or utensils, and you can add exquisite decorations to your home.

Affordable side tables and trolleys

Bar carts or side tables need not be traditional. Garden stools and carts can be used as side tables and decorations.

Rice paper or other items placed in a shadow box or plexiglass

Rice paper is modern and neutral. A creative idea is to put big pieces in the frame.

Wine glass as a candle holder

This is my new "it" idea. Just pick up the wine glass, turn it over and place a small offering at the bottom, it can now be used as a base for the candle. Put some decorations under the glass mouth to get a more creative look!

These are very interesting and can add instant colors and graphics to the space.
