Decorating your home entirely for free is not the outlandish idea you may think it is. Truth be told, Kristen McGowan has 10 different ideas for how to score some free home decor you’ll absolutely love. And her free home decor ideas are so good, in fact, that no one would believe you if you told them.

According to Kristen, decorating on a budget is actually a simple process. Not only do budget decor pieces save you a ton of money, but they still look amazing and give your home that cozy, lived-in feel.


Kristen says to start by using nature. Taking clippings from the trees and bushes on your property is one of those home decorating ideas on a budget that many people fail to think of, but you can easily incorporate fresh or dried sprigs of greenery or flowers into any room for a more natural look.


Another free home decor item you should obtain is free wall art. Kristen says that websites like Unsplash offer free downloadable art that you can print right at home. Plus, you can put them in frames you already have, gifted frames, or thrifted frames.

Rearranging furniture

She also recommends rearranging your furniture to give your space a drastic new look that costs you nothing. While you’re at it, Kristen says to shop your home. By this she means, rearranging decor pieces, like throw pillows and wall art, or moving them into entirely new areas of your home.


Facebook Marketplace is another source for finding free home decor like furniture pieces or artwork. You can also complete a quick DIY project by spray painting hardware or light fixtures to give them a whole new look.


Lastly, dismantling your existing furniture, repurposing items you already own, framing wallpaper, and using paint are free home decor options as well.
