How to decorate a shack house on a budget

While speaking to Briefly News, architect and interior designer, Erwan Kabwita shared tips on decorating your shack home using budget-friendly items.

  • DIY Art and Wall Decor

Erwan suggests that individuals print out free or inexpensive artwork online, frame it with budget frames, or even repurpose old frames they may already have.

  • Textiles and Soft Furnishings
"Throw pillows and cushions in the mix as they are affordable and easy to update. You can find these at budget stores or make your own with fabric and stuffing," he said.

To add warmth and colour, the interior designer recommends budget-friendly area rugs or runners, which can be found at discounted prices in home stores.

  • Repurposed Furniture

Look for second-hand furniture at thrift stores or online marketplaces and give it a fresh coat of paint or new fabric.
