Have you considered doing some thrift store repurpose or upcycle projects? Not only are they inexpensive, but it's so rewarding to make your own unique decor. Check out my thrift store finds for some ideas:

If you mean inside the home, you can display your hobbies for decour if you like. We have family oil paintings we love and hang in various rooms. A cousin has Indian memorabilia on his front room wall. Friends used wooden slats to make a herring bone decor with wood on their front room wall. My Grandma grew all kinds of African violets and other plants. I like to paint flat river rocks to make them look like cactus, and also large ghords for decorations. What do you love? ask yourself what gives you joy and peace and put those things in your home or yard. My mom had a hutch cabinet full of small bells from where she traveled and my sister collects salt and pepper shakers. You can decorate with hobbies or use a theme such as the Mediterranian, western, Victorian or whatever YOU love. My best friend collected and decorated with all types of rolling pins. Our friends love wildlife objects and photos. Think of what you love and use that as a theme or use your hobby as a decoration. Also, colors are something to consider. I love green, reds, and gold combined. I often use them in candle decorations. Hope this gives you some ideas, Wendy
I have seen people use an old calendar and frame pictures they like and use them as wall art. Some calendars can be bought for $1 at the dollar tree, or use last year's old calendar if it is still around.
You could make an inexpensive gallery wall with colorful frames and scrapbook paper: http://momhomeguide.com/scrapbook-paper-art-gallery-wall/
