1 in 5 people in the UK made a New Year’s Resolution this year and the one thing they all had in common was change, one of the biggest changes could be moving house – but do you really need to? Here’s how our self storage Bicester UK can rejuvenate your home:
At the start of the year, you have just had the Christmas period which is a busy time for all of us. And those early months can be quite a struggle.
We are still in Winter, still feeling a need for rest but there is this push and pressure to go for things and to change elements of yourself and your life. This often results in making New Year’s Resolutions.
If you are craving change but you really aren’t in a place to deal with the pressures of a house move, we have some advice on how you can rejuvenate your current home instead.
Here’s how our self storage Bicester UK will help.
Have a declutter
The New Year is the perfect time for a declutter and having a declutter is truly a great first step to rejuvenating your home.
There are a multitude of different methods for decluttering that you can try but what is most important is that you are truly honest with yourself about items – when was the last time you used it? Or wore it? What are the chances of you using it again?
Anything that hasn’t been used in over a year and isn’t of sentimental value really needs to either be given away, sold or thrown away. It’s amazing how much a declutter can make your space feel like new.
We know that decluttering is a hard process, so our self storage Bicester UK is here to help too. You can rent a unit with us to store all the items that you aren’t sure about. This will give you time to slowly go through it all and it may help you realise that you don’t need/want certain items as you don’t miss them when they are out of your house.
Add a statement wall
There are so many ways to add a statement wall to your home with very little effort. Adding a pop of colour, wall panelling or a beautiful wallpaper to a wall in your home is an easy and quick way to make a major change to a room.
If you feel all the walls need a refresh, you may decide to decorate the whole room but keeping the statement piece to one wall allows you to try something without making a major commitment or spending large amounts of money.
If you’re wanting to do a little bit more DIY, you can build out your feature wall with additional storage and wallpaper within the new recesses that you have created. You could even add in a central fireplace with shelving on either side to display your most-loved books and accessories.
Change your soft furnishings
This is an even quicker way to change up multiple rooms. If you already have pillows on your sofa, you could simply buy some new covers. Adding in a new colour can transform your space in no time.
If throw pillows are something you have never considered, they are a great way to add some colour and personality to a room. And you don’t have to spend a fortune with many high street shops having some great selections to choose from.
Changing up your bedding is also another great way to make some impactful changes. It is a really simple way to rejuvenate your bedroom.
Many people change up their soft furnishings throughout the seasons. If this is something you would like to do but don’t have the storage space, one of our smaller units within our self storage Bicester UK would be ideal. Starting at 15 sq ft, you can use it as your home wardrobe, changing in and out your home furnishings with the seasons.
Add some art to your walls
Another way to create a statement wall without any decorating is to create an art wall.
Prints, photographs, paintings – arranging them on a wall all together is a wonderful and fun way to change up a room and to really bring some of you and your personality into it. Frame some of your most-loved memories, using different sized frames will add interest to your space.
Doing this doesn’t have to cost a fortune with many artists having print versions of their artwork on offer. You can look around charity shops and car boot sales as there could be some real treasures on offer.
