For instance, instead of painting the walls, you can go for wall tiles. Wall tiles look amazing on the walls and give a decent and a neat appearance to the wall. The not just beautify the look of the walls but also look unique compared to the drab appearance of the same old wall paints. Wall tiles come in a pool of colours, textures and designs so you will not face any difficulty in finding the right wall tiles for your home walls. Such is the variety available that you can let your imagination run wild and find wall tiles that are tailor made to suit your tastes and preferences. 

With wall tiles, you can create different types of look on the walls. You can opt for light blue tiles to create an oceanic feel on the wall. You can opt for crystal textured tiles to create a swimming pool like appearance for the walls.

Wall tiles with a metallic texture are newly invented and they are counted as one of the stylish designs for tiles. From conventional looking to the more sophisticated modern ones, wall tiles are slowly making their presence felt in the tile market.

Three simple ways to cut kitchen designing costs

The kitchen space in the olden days served merely as a utility space. It was for the sole purpose of cooking food for the family. Concepts like kitchen remodelling and kitchen designing were alien to the middle-class home maker. Kitchen remodelling was restricted to the well-to-do families who had enough disposable income at their hands. However, things have not remained the same. In the present day, even the middle class and lower middle class groups look to redesign their kitchen with budget-friendly ideas.If you also are looking for budget-friendly ideas to remodel your kitchen, then the below given tips can be really useful to you.
Kitchen lighting
Though it may not sound that important, but kitchen lighting can go a long way in accentuating the look of your kitchen. A very cost- effective way to lift up the kitchen look is to opt for fancy light bulbs and fixtures to adorn the kitchen. If you are looking for adjustable lights, then look no further than halogen lights. You can easily adjust the brightness of these lights as per your mood or needs. 
Kitchen wall paint
If you want to jazz up the look of your cooking space, you can consider giving the walls a new colour by applying a fresh coat of paint on the ceilings as well as the walls. You may be surprised to know that painting your kitchen walls is one of the most cost-effective ways of redefining your kitchen. If you opt for some bold colours, it will help to make your kitchen look vibrant and full of life.
Kitchen cabinets
You may have not noticed but your kitchen cabinets tend to develop stains after a certain point of time and this hampers the look of your kitchen. A cheap way to add a new look to your kitchen is to repaint your old kitchen cabinets. You may wonder painting wooden cabinets will harm them; however, no harm will be caused to those wooden cabinets. Coloring your wooden cabinets in different hues can give your kitchen the look you always wanted to have. 

Two common mistakes to avoid while accessorising your room

We all make wrong choices in our lives. Be it with life partners or just a simple dress, we can go wrong at any point in our life. But there can be nothing worse than having to live with the mistake for the entire life. You need to rectify your mistakes before it gets too late. Same applies to your home décor. Your home is a place which is next to heaven for you. So why design it in the wrong way. Here are a few common home décor mistakes and how to rectify them. 

Unanchored rugs

If you have decided to throw off a rug on the flooring, remember that it should have something on top of it. Floating area rugs without any object on them are a big no-no for home décor. If you leave your rugs without any piece of furniture on them, they will almost resemble a magic carpet ready to fly any time. If you do not wish to keep any heavy furniture on them, you can keep at least two feet of the crouch or the chair in it. A fact to note is that coffee tables were designed as a rest on these rugs. 

Disproportionate furniture

Remember that the furniture you buy will define the look of your room. You need to first well understand the size and the shape of the room before you go to buy any furniture for your home. A dining table stuffed into a breakfast noon or the huge sectional cabinet fitting into a tiny den, a wrong size of furniture can wreck havoc on your room. Replace the odd sized furniture as soon as possible. Replace them with small pieces of furniture that do not occupy too much space in your room. Remember a room crammed up with too many accessories can make you feel claustrophobic. Before buying the furniture, always take the room measurements.
