One doesn’t need to pinch their pockets to decorate their houses, a few simple and innovative techniques can spice up your corners.

• Apple tree, this delicious apple tree centre piece can be easily made by packing an ice bucket with wet soil and plant moss covered support. The apples can be fixed over the vertical stem using sturdy sticks. As you get closer to the base use longer sticks. The arrangement can be finished by adding a few leaves.

• Key note, this idea will also help one keep the spare keys at hand and never loose them. One can ask the carpenter to push the hooks in a sturdy wooden photo frame and hang it near the doorway.

• Perfect perch, a simple looking planter can be dressed up and by using a fabric that complements the bloom, wrap it around the pot and tie a ribbon to it, and can be placed in a corner on a stool where the planter will get enough sun light.

• Cake up, ending clutter on your dressing table can be a piece of cake which can be fixed by layering a couple of cake stands to make a catchall for cosmetics, jewelry and other accessories that are often used.

• Score a match point, pick an abstract design like a flower, animal or any pattern that catches your fancy and get it framed in any corner of your room. You can also frame your favorite poem, a painted pattern etc.

• Make room for more, kids growing into tins are often found cribbing about the lack of space for sleep over. The easy solution to this will be by getting your carpenter to pull out a drawer cum bed on casters to the existing bed.

• Stone age, a new edge can be added to the bathroom with a stacked stone wall. This is an easy process no matter if you are building your home from scratch or renovating it one can actually opt for actual stones or similar looking tiles that will give the similar effect. This will break the monotony of the walls and immediately draw attention.
