41 Tips for Decorating Your Home on a Small Budget

In this guide, we have put together all of our advice, tips and ideas to help you decorate your house or apartment with a small budget.

Don’t expect quick fixes. There are no secrets or magic tricks to decorate on a small budget, and you will even discover that the first tips are not the most exciting….

We prefer to warn you! But these are important steps to finally decorate cheap and according to your desires, with a limited budget.

1. Declutter & CleanTips for Decorating Your Home on a Small Budget

The first step!

Advertisements

We will not lie, this is not the stage the most fun. But it may be the most rewarding, once it’s done!

A good decluttering followed by a thorough cleaning of your house will help you to see more clearly. And sometimes, it’s even all you need to give a fresh start to your decor!

declutter allows to start on a good basis for a simple and elegant decoration of the living room

No need to wait for spring to start a big cleaning. If this task seems too important to you, start with a room, and even a part of this room, like the dressing room of your bedroom.

Advertisements

Once you’ve cleared and cleaned up, you can even go a step further and sort through everything you own.

Do you really want to keep these items? To help you in this step, if you are having trouble separating yourself from certain objects, get the best-selling book by Marie Kondo La Magie du Rangement.

For all the things you don’t want to keep, you can give them away, or sell them! A good way to budget for possibly buying new things.

2. Define your objectives

By following this simple and effective way.

Advertisements

An important step to decorate on a small budget. You have to define what your goals are. The more precise, the better!

A good objective will be for example “I want to revamp my living room to bring it a style (to be defined) with a budget of (to be defined), before (date to be defined).

A precise and clear objective is the key to a good cheap makeover. Otherwise, you risk being scattered and discouraged, especially if you have several rooms to decorate.

To help you set and define a good goal, you can use the SMART model :

Advertisements
  • S pecific
  • M easurable
  • A reachable
  • R ealistic
  • T emporellement defined

By following this model, you set a precise and clearly defined objective.

3. Establish a budget

This is the key.

When you think about it, decorating inexpensively means absolutely nothing! From cheap to one person may be priced out of another. After defining your objectives, take the time to define your budget, according to your objective of course.

You will already see it more clearly when you have decided exactly how much you can afford to spend.

4. Start piece by pieceTips for Decorating Your Home on a Small Budget

To not feel overwhelmed.

To decorate your home on a small budget, you start with a room and avoid trying to do everything at once!

You may have the goal of redecorating your entire home. If this is the case, we recommend that you split this project into several stages, and start with a single piece.

This will save you from being overwhelmed by too many ideas, or from stressing over all the things to do!

Advertisements

5. Prioritize

From the start!

You already have a clearer vision, a goal and a budget. This is a very good start. You must now prioritize.

For example, if you want to revamp your living room, you can now decide which essential things you want to replace / buy and which are the lower priority.

Again, the objective of this step is simply to better define your goal, to achieve it more easily.

6. Take a close look

From the ground to the ceiling.

Room by room, from floor to ceiling, take a close look at EVERYTHING you already own. You risk discovering things or objects that you had forgotten!

And as you’ve already sort (step # 1), that are normally the objects decor you want to keep. Which brings us to the next step…

7. Create, recycle or buyTips for Decorating Your Home on a Small Budget

Even if you are not a handyman, get started in DIY!

Advertisements

When we think of cheap decoration, we imagine shopping sessions and good plans.

This is part of it (you will discover below the shops that we recommend for small budgets), but for now, we suggest you ask yourself the following questions :

  • can i create this decoration myself ?
  • can i recycle the objects / furniture i already have?
  • do i have to buy new decor?

To create or recycle decor, there is no shortage of ideas. For all DIY inspirations, we recommend using Pinterest.

If you are not a handyman but want to get started, several solutions:

Advertisements
  • the YouTube channels of hobby and DIY
  • the tutorials on blogs
  • the DIY stores such as Leroy Merlin DIY organize workshops

If you’ve never made anything and think you don’t have the DIY skills to get started, start small.

You can for example put hairpin legs to make a table, or even replace the handles of your furniture with pretty leather handles, this is a detail that will radically change the appearance of your furniture.

8. Make a shopping list

It’s essential!

It’s already a much more fun step, if you like shopping! In digital format or simply on a notebook, now write down your shopping list.

A shopping list allows you to have a more precise idea of how much everything you would like to buy will cost. And once this shopping list is well defined, you use it to stick to your budget.

9. Buy smartTips for Decorating Your Home on a Small Budget

On the MadeInDesign online store, it’s a good plan that comes up regularly. We will try to inform you about homedecorh as soon as this offer is available.

The principle is simple, and allows you to buy cheap designer furniture, with slight defects (such as scratches for example).

The shop participates all year long in fairs and events, and since these pieces of furniture and decorative objects have already been used, Madeindesign.com offers discounts of up to 50%.

At the moment, for example, the E27 pendant lamp by the Muuto brand is € 39.94 instead of € 69, because it is an exhibition model. The only problem with this good plan: it is unfortunately not possible to have details on product defects.

In the IKEA store nearest to me, there is a space dedicated to good deals, with furniture that also has slight flaws.

Do not hesitate to ask the sellers of the stores you visit, you can have very good surprises. When I was a student, my roommate had saved 50% on a slightly scratched table, on the underside of the tray, and therefore invisible!

13. Know when to buy what

From January to December.

Another way to decorate your home inexpensively is simply to know when to buy what, to take advantage of the best prices!

Advertisements

For example, stores generally offer great discounts on linens with the arrival of spring.

To buy a sofa, it is better to wait for the sales or Black Friday. If you want to make big savings on the Christmas decor, we recommend that you buy all the accessories in January! You are getting a lot ahead, but the reductions are very interesting.

If you are coming or planning a move, you can take advantage of an operation like Black Friday to buy everything you are going to need. A new mattress, a sofa, household appliances,…

You will find a summary, month by month, in our guide on when to buy what.

14. Follow the news of good plansTips for Decorating Your Home on a Small Budget

Do not miss anything!

Here at home decor, since the launch of the site, we have been trying to find and regularly share good decor plans. We try because it is not an easy thing!

Promotions are no longer limited to sales. From January to December, the consumer is bombarded with offers, discounts, and promotions.

Good decor plans exist. Throughout the year, it is possible to find discounts and promotions at Zara Home, H&M Maison, GIFI, HEMA, La Redoute Interiors…

Advertisements

For retailers and shops, everything is now a pretext for offering discounts. The new year, spring, vacation departures, back to school, brand anniversaries,… Not to mention the big promotional events such as Black Friday or new initiatives to compete with it, such as the French Days.

WPAdvertisements

For the consumer, it is ultimately less and less clear to know exactly if they are really good plans or not. And even in our case, it is sometimes difficult to sort out.

But good plans exist! The only thing to remember is not to rush into overly enticing offers. You will always have the opportunity to find a similar offer.

To follow the news of all these good plans and know who offers what at the moment, we recommend that you bookmark this page. You can also consult our tips section.

Advertisements

These are 2 good resources to keep you regularly informed of current discounts and promotions.

Good plans exist, but to follow them is already more complicated. You can subscribe to all the newsletters from your favorite decoration stores, but you certainly don’t want to receive even more emails!

Here at home decor, we search, sort, and select the good plans that are worth the most. You can follow them in several ways:

  • the good deals section: brings together all the articles and guides on this subject
  • the good deals page: updated daily with the best offers of the moment
  • the balances section
  • the Black Friday section

15. Buy used

Forget your prejudices!

10 minutes from my home is an association that works on the same principle as Emmaus. This place is huge!

There is a choice, but you have to sort it out, to sometimes find nothing at all. But we can also come across very good surprises, things to recycle and transform.

A while ago, I was looking to buy a metal shelf from the HAY brand. At over 200 €, it was out of budget. And during my visit to the association’s warehouse, I found 2 shelves with a very similar look. They were just a little rusty, on sale for 45 € both.

I take note to make the measurements at home, and when I return to the warehouse, the shelves were sold! All that to say that sometimes, we can have good surprises, but it is better to seize the opportunity when it presents itself.

You can also do online scouting to buy second-hand. Sites like LeBonCoin or eBay are to be consulted regularly.

If you have a Facebook account, the marketplace section is also a good source for finding and buying cheap decor.

Here is a list of sites to buy used decor :

  • Ebay.fr
  • Leboncoin.com
  • Brocantelab.com
  • Zeeloft.com

16. Invest when it countsTips for Decorating Your Home on a Small Budget

On certain things, it is important.

Advertisements

We have already spotted sofas under € 100, with the various offers and promotions, for example during Black Friday. The price is necessarily tempting, but you also have to face the facts.

Decorating and furnishing your home inexpensively as possible, but for certain rooms, such as the sofa, it is recommended to focus on quality, and therefore invest a sufficient budget

For some rooms and especially furniture, it is sometimes wise to invest more money so as not to have to replace it a few months later, or worse, simply regret your purchase.

Investing in what really matters is a matter of common sense and experience!

17. FTE: Be Always Ready

And on the lookout!

The best way to come across a beautiful and inexpensive decorative object is to stay in the research phase every day.

Always be ready to find the small piece of furniture or accessory that will make the difference in your interior.

It is advisable to keep an open mind and especially to understand that beautiful decor is not only found in the shops everyone is talking about.

18. Negotiate

You just have to get started!

It costs nothing to ask. The next time you spot a decorative item or piece of furniture that you like, but would like to buy but is out of budget, simply ask the seller for a discount.

You will of course suffer a lot of failures, I prefer to warn you, and I speak from experience! But you can have good surprises.

The seller can for example tell you that this object will soon be reduced, or that there is an older and cheaper model …

19. Ask

You may have surprises.

Sometimes what we want to buy at any cost is available in the attic or cellar of our neighbors. If you do not ask, nobody will know that you are looking for a new vase, a frame, a coffee table,…

Just ask around you, your friends, your colleagues and your family.

If you want to do too much, you end up… Doing nothing! You have to accept that everything is not perfect at home, and that is what defines your home, it is the personal touch of your house or your apartment.

Also take into account the fact that decorating your home is a long-term project.

Here at homedecorh, we are well placed to find out. By visiting sites like Pinterest or browsing the pages of decorative magazines, you will have the impression that everything is perfect in others… It’s inspiring, but if you try to reproduce the same thing at home, it can become discouraging!
