For those who don't want a mess, decorative wallpapers never go out of fashion! There are tons of beautiful options available that you can choose for your home. You could go for thin stripes patterns that will give the room a spacious look.

Fun idea: Attach a bunch of polaroids to your newly designed wall to add a personal touch.

2) Update Your Window Curtains

Yes, your curtains can make a massive difference in the look of your tiny house. It is an easy and hassle-free method for a home refresh. You can choose from sheer flow curtains, blinds, or go with simple pleated curtains. Choose neutral colors like ivory or beige to blend with the interiors of your living space. Or you could pick curtains of the same color as your wall to make your room appear bigger.

If you are tech-savvy, you can consider purchasing smart curtains compatible with Alexa or Google Home. These gadget-oriented options will also make your life easier!

Additionally, you can purchase upgraded appliances to ones with a chic, modern look. These minor yet impactful changes can help create a new & improved design for your tiny home kitchen.

House maintenance tip: the wear and tear on your appliances can make them susceptible to frequent breakdowns. You might want to get them covered under a home warranty plan to avoid expensive repairs or replacement costs.

5) Furniture Refresh

If you're bored with the same look, browse sofa covers that can instantly update the look of your tiny home. Though, if you're so lucky to have enough floor space to do so, shuffle furniture is always a go-to simple home refresh tool.
