Place the furniture at some distance from your walls. Consider positioning the furniture pieces at intriguing angles. For example, if the room is narrow, the sofa should be arranged diagonally. This would make the room appear wider, and would give it an inviting, warm layout.

Clean and Paint

A fresh coat of paint or a clean up of the existing doors and moldings can work wonders for your home. Look for useful utensils or new colors at any home improvement store in your locality.

You may also consider painting one wall using one of your favorite colors. This wall may serve as the focal point. Place some interesting piece of art on the wall, and put an appealing furniture piece there.
