To beautify someone or something is to make them more beautiful — to add care, order, or charm so they look better than before. We beautify streets with trees and lights, beautify a room with paint, beautify a park with flowers. That is how the word is most at home: places, rooms, towns, and official projects (“a plan to beautify the river bank”).

It is ordinary-to-formal: fine in news, school writing, and city posters; a bit stiff in chat if you only mean “tidy up.”
