Quality Shelving from Bernards Bins

March 30, 2011 - PRLog -- Whether you are looking to sell your house or just make it nicer to live in, there are a few simple things you can do without it costing a fortune. There is no need to spend a fortune on redecorating or buying expensive designer furniture. Making a few key changes can make all the difference. When you are trying to sell your property, first impressions are crucial. Small touches such as putting fresh flowers on the table will lift the whole room. You can use artificial plants if you want them to last. Prints and pictures are another good way to decorate a room cheaply. Try to stick to neutral shades if you are selling your home, as these won’t put a potential buyer off.
Rather than replacing furniture repaint it. This is a much cheaper option for giving life to old, tired-looking cabinets. If you have quality shelving in your house, make a feature of it. A few strategically-placed ornaments or vases on quality shelving help to make a room more attractive. If you are short on space, try putting mirrors on spare wall space. This creates the illusion that the room is bigger than it really is. If you have a nice view, taking the curtains out will also bring in natural light and help extend the space. If you have stains on the carpet or floorboards, try a rug or strategically-placed chair to cover them up. That way you don’t need to replace the whole thing. Similarly making new cushion covers is cheap and easy to do.
Clearing up your clutter is important, too. Unsightly mess puts off potential buyers and can be depressing to live in. Try and utilise the space that you have, storing items in airing cupboards and cupboards under the stairs, for example. Prioritise buying a few new things for the home where it makes sense to do so. For example, quality shelving will be on display so it’s worth investing in that. It’s a chance to display some of your best items, as well as keeping clutter away from the floor and surface areas. If you have a limited budget it is worth investing it in things which are both attractive and useful at the same time.
Floating shelves are an eye-catching addition to a room, and are adaptable too. They can be painted to fit in with an existing colour scheme or left in their natural wood shades. Place a few colourful vases on them and the room is transformed. “Whatever your taste, we have a range of quality shelving at unbeatable prices,” says Spokesman of Bernards Bins, Bernard Jones. “Logging on to our clear and easy-to-use website is much better than spending hours in the DIY store.” If you’re short on time, doing your shopping online is a better way to improve the look of your home. Half an hour on the computer and a few strategic items later, you are well on the way to making that sale.
