If you are struggling with decorating, or your walls look a little too bare, Jess has got a great cheap hack which will instantly add colour to your room.

Jess writes: "There are SO many different ways to use a sample pot of paint."

In a on her instagram she shows three different ways you can use a sample pot to revamp your home.

Fireplace

If you have a fireplace in your home that's looking like its getting on a bit, Jess has the perfect solution, paint with a sample paint pot.

The effect of painting the fireplace in a bright, contrasting colour really adds a finished feel to the room.

"There are SO many different ways to use a sample pot of paint."

Doors

This hack works especially well in children's bedrooms, and really ties in the rest of the room.

Jess doesn't paint the entire door but paints diagonally across the door to create an asymmetric feature and it looks amazing.

Walls

To living up your walls Jess suggests using a sample paint pot to create colour-block on the walls.

Jess then uses this colour blocking technique to use as a fram for hanging prints on.

It adds just the right amount of depth and makes for the perfect feature wall.

Jess writes: "It's such a simple and close effective way to do a DIY update."

Viewers of the video absolutely loved her ideas for decorating on a budget.
