Trying to make your home look better but still low on funds? Don’t worry because you don’t really need to have a lot of money to do that – here are our top 10 budget-friendly home improvement project ideas.
#1 Paint Your Walls
This is perhaps one of the best things you can do to improve your home, though this can entail a bigger budget if you have a large house.
If you’re doing the DIY route, be sure to also buy tape to put along edges and sections that have different colors so they won’t look messy.
#2 Paint Your Furniture
Most wood and metal furniture pieces are also easy to update using paint. White, brown, and black are popular colors, but you can also opt for more colorful items.
#3 Update Your Bathroom
Some homeowners also prefer doing the bathroom first when renovating – and that’s fine. You can update the tiles, change the fixtures, or add a mirror.
#4 Fix Broken Stuff
Try to fix your creaking floorboards or other broken stuff in your home, such as a broken doorknob. Easy fixes like these can actually go a long way to improve your home.
#5 Add a Table Lamp
You can create your own DIY table lamp or take a pick from the top brands.
#6 Clean Your Sofa and Couch
Most of the time, there isn’t a need to throw away your dirty sofa or couch. Some TLC might make them look bright and new again.
#7 Install a Shiplap Accent Wall
Transform a boring wall into a beautiful focal point by using shiplap accent.
#8 Add or Decorate a Home Office
Convert a nook or spot into a home office – and decorate this without spending a lot of money. You can also add some plants, preferably succulents, in small spots to brighten up your home office.
#9 Install Floating Shelves
Floating shelves make a great addition to your home without costing an arm and a leg. You can get a ready-to-install kit or make your own from scratch.
#10 Create DIY Faux Marble Countertops
Who said countertops need to be expensive marble? DIY faux marble countertops are now a thing.
You don’t even have to do all these things at once. Start with small projects that fit your budget. Little by little, you can improve your home.
