    A fresh coat of paint, wash and paint the trim also. New lighting. A new throw rug. New curtains. Rearrange the furniture. A new clock or wall art. New throw pillows. Restuff couch cushions.

    If you have heavy window coverings consider removing them and using blinds or rollup shades as privacy for night and use lighter sheer window coverings that let in more light or can be pushed back during the day. Fresh paint and new lighting are also a good option!

    In addition to above, adding a mirror opposite a window will reflect light into the room. Adding additional table lamps, or adding bright LED bulbs will increase light. I also like a floor lamp. You could also do cove lighting all around the top of the room with the new LED strips... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rqv8C3Qupk

    Agree with Sharon to first change all the lighting to LED, either integrated LED fixtures, or bulbs.
