Reducing waste is never going to go out of style. Before you throw it away, ask yourself if there’s anything that will salvage your fading love for it. Turn old crockery into plant pots, bedding into curtains, or the frame of a cracked mirror into a unique picture frame.

Before resorting to the horrors of building flat-pack furniture, look around. Your dining table might have seen better days - but think before you ditch it! Chalk paint could really change it up. It works well on most surfaces, rarely needs messy prep like sanding and primer - so unleash your inner Michelangelo and create your own masterpiece!  

Kitchen units or chest of drawers seen better days? Try some of the fabulous adhesive vinyl available - choose from any pattern, style, and colour imaginable! All you need is a steady hand and a bit of patience.  An even simpler fix is to upcycle your window dressings. Try dye, fabric paint, or iron-on fabric transfers - a small change can make a huge difference to your home. 

Mix it up 

Not everything has to match. 2020 has been about championing equality and diversity – so why not extend that to your home? Mix patterns with clashing soft furnishings like cushions, rugs, and blinds.

Make a statement with brightly coloured vases and pots dotted around to perk up your plants. Replace lamp shades with statement versions - dare to be different; it’s what keeps life fun. 

A huge trend we’re predicting is the rise of line art. The growing popularity of line art portraits and tattoos suggests this could extend to wall art at home too. Remember that line art doesn’t have to be mono – splashes of contrasting colour will make your room pop!
