    Great ideas! My mom was a “rotator”-Every few months, she’d move furniture around and made our little house look updated without spending a dime.

    About rotating stuff: my mom did that with our toys. Some would be put in a closet and others brought out - it was like having new toys.

    Sherwin Williams has their sample size paints half off in January. Also check for mis mixed paint colors at paint and home dec stores for deals.

    You look really pretty today...earrings, blouse, hair, makeup. Have you ever thought about doing a video about how you achieve your various shades of blonde? I'd watch. Loving this one. Curious about the process. What blush are you using? I'm sure others would like to know too.

    I just rotated my furniture and decor, and it makes a world of difference! I’m struggling with my shelves however! This video is EXACTLY what I needed.

    • @KivaBrent

      So happy to hear that! Good luck with those shelves! I’m sure they look beautiful :)

      The shelves on each side of my fireplace are the bane of my existence. I change them around once a year and it takes me all day. 😂
      In my next home, I do not want bookshelves flanking my fireplace. Too much stuff to dust.

    Declutter too even if it is a little each week. I'm going to paint my doors and window trim black until I replace all my windows. They are wood now and horribly warped since the 70's when my house was built. I also want to spray paint the door knobs a dark pewter metallic. They are the cheap 70's worn out brass color now. 😊

  • @my3sneezes

    My goodness Kiva … You are looking sooo gorgeous in this video! So much so that I was forgetting to listen to you properly and I’m going to have to watch this twice !! Haha 😂. I am loving this advice, such a wonderful thing to do …rotate your existing things! To appreciate what we already have is a precious gift!

  • @janeferguson4455
    @janeferguson4455 14 дней назад +8

    Another no-cost easy one is to move art/pictures from wall to wall or room to room. Problem with throw pillows can be that the colors in one room might be totally incompatible with another!

    Another place to get paint for less is looking at the oops shelf. Home Depot often has an area where they sell the mistaken coolers for less.

    Painting our doors, my hubby and I were talking about how the trim looks bad compared to the walls. We had our interior painted when we moved in but just the walls not the trim. He replaced the flooring upstairs and never finished the baseboards but we were talking about doing that soon and i mentioned the trims all need a cleaning and fresh coat. The walls are ok. I have a sticky roller and went around the house rolling it on the walls, i had 2 cats and in 2 of the rooms you could see thier hair stuck to the walls, not all the rooms but it was weird there were a few that it was everywhere. Once i cleaned those up it looked better but the trim could really use a refresh. We're happy with the colors on the walls so I don't want to change that but the doors and trim could use it.
