We Asked Designers for the Easiest Trick to Refresh a Room in January—No Paint Required

Painting, adding wall molding, or installing peel-and-stick wallpaper are all relatively easy DIY ways to transform a space, but they're still projects that require clearing your calendar and clearing out space to actually work in your living room or bedroom or somesuch — not always appealing right after the holidays.

Still, if you're looking to give your space a boost at the top of the year, we asked an interior designer for the simplest, best trick to transform a room—something you can do in about 30 minutes without having to clear your calendar for a bona fide project.

This quick, low-cost, high-impact hack will make your home feel instantly warmer, brighter, and more stylish without any hassle or mess.
