You want a newer, fresher-looking home, but you don’t have tons of money to spend on redecorating. Take the budget you do have and invest it wisely! One of the easiest and most cost-effective things you can do for your home is update the small details—which together make a huge impact on the overall design of your home. Let’s take a tour of all the wonderful places where you can create small but powerful design impacts…
Window treatments are one of the most design-neglected areas of the home. They keep light out and protect privacy, but they also make a room feel sophisticated. World Market has many affordable options for homeowners looking to refresh their windows. The Henri Floral Cotton Roman Shade, the Monaco Stripe Cotton Shades and the Savannah Ogee Medallion and Wave Shades come in both 31” x 62” and 36” x 62” sizes and feature fun patterns that are great for bringing in color to your windows. With prices from only $34.99 to $39.99, you’ll be able to dress up every window in your house without going over budget. All of World Market’s shades and blinds also come with a removable valance for design flexibility, but most importantly, all blinds are compliant with the newest and most stringent safety standards.
Don’t forget about window hardware. Simply pairing drapes or fabric panels with attractive drapery rods can make for a professional and impressive window composition. For the budget conscious, we recommend all of World Market’s great choices of stylish drapery rods with decorative ball finials. Go with something like the Topkapi Walnut Rods, which feature simple detailing of the finial, when you want to add an instant high-end feel to a window. Expect quality for not a lot of price from all of World Market’s hardware options: rods and more range from only $24.99 to $39.99.
Next, look to refreshing your floors. Every room in your house can benefit from the addition of an affordable rug; they make a room feel cozy and pulled together. World Market is your go-to place for beautiful rugs at great prices in a number of material, color and pattern options. For rooms that need a bright punch of color to pull the décor together, grab an Oslo Rug, 100% cotton rug featuring a fun geometric pattern, available in red, yellow, plum, green or blue colors in the 2’ x 3’ size for $9.99 and a red or green color in the 4’ x 6’ size for an affordable $49.99. The Oslo Rugs are available in store starting February 1st. Snag one of World Market’s printed bamboo rugs when you’re looking for subtle color and a soft, nature-inspired pattern.

You’ll want to buy up a few of World Market’s 4’ x 6’ size Nikunj Striped Rugs, which are 100% cotton fringed mats available in red, green or plum colors, each with a unique stripe variation, for only $39.99 each. Great placed alone as a bright accent or paired with others for a coordinated rug arrangement, the Nikunj Striped Rugs are versatile enough to fit in with any room’s style and easy to wash.

Treat yourself and your guests to fresh towels with World Market’s new Fern Collection. Made in Turkey and of 100% cotton, you’ll delight in their softness and two-toned fern graphics in five striking colors. Our favorite feature of the towels: they’re reversible! Already priced reasonably at $5.99 for washcloths, $9.99 for hand towels and $14.99 for bath towels, it’ll be like getting twice the towels for the price of one.
