Cleaning your bathroom might not seem like a fun day's work, but it will give your home a serious refresh. The bathroom is exceedingly important and by employing a minimal, clutter free aesthetic, you'll impart clarity and style within your abode. 

4. Add a wall mural

A wall mural is so easy to add, will take less than a couple of hours, with seriously spectacular results! Focus on empty walls in corridors or hallways, and opt for something that evokes your desired mood or aura. 

5. Paint everything white

6. Declutter your home

About as much fun as cleaning your bathroom, a full house or apartment de-clutter will likely take an entire day, but the results will speak for themselves.

7. Paint a feature wall

A feature wall can brighten or darken a room, but is sure to add character and personality to a dull or dreary interior. 

8. Add hanging side lamps in your bedroom

9. Give your rattan and wicker furniture a makeover

Rattan and wicker furniture is wonderfully on-trend, but many of us still let our pieces languish in the corner of a room unnoticed. Give your wicker items a refresh by cleaning them, position them where they'll be of use, and accessorise with throw cushions or interesting objects. 

10. Get creative and colourful with wall art
