1. Add Molding 

I don’t know about you, but every time I visit a museum that is a few hundred years old and has molding and gold accents, I feel like I’m in a billionaire’s home.

Adding molding to your bare walls can make your home look more expensive and stylish at the same time. You can add it to the chair rail, ceiling, or baseboard.

It doesn’t have to be something over the top, like the molding in the Victorian style. A simple and clean piece of molding will do the trick, and everyone will think that you paid thousands of dollars for it. But don’t worry, you don’t have to break the piggy bank for it!
