You’re ready to start a home improvement project. The problem? Your budget isn’t. No worries! There are plenty of budget-friendly ways to upgrade your home without rupturing your cash flow. And you can do it all in the comfort and style Canadians demand.
-
Paint
No home improvement project revamps a home for less time or money than fresh paint. Try a lighter color palette for a brighter ambiance. Choose three versions of the same hue and apply them to an accent wall and trim.
-
Entranceway
Canadian Comfort, maker of fine Ottawa doors, reminds us that a new door is an inexpensive way to add both value and curb appeal. Because a shabby door can make your home look rundown, switch it out for a new color or style that will make the entranceway stand out in an inviting manner.
-
Storage
Nothing creates chaos and robs peace of mind more than disorder in your home. Home improvement and dollar stores offer a wide array of options for attractive storage, and the costs are minimal.
-
Lighting
Added lighting can effectively lighten your home and brighten your life. Try some up-lighting in your kitchen to create a sense of depth, or mini-pendant lights above the island for a feeling of radiant elegance that will update its appearance without much effort or cash.
-
Flooring
Today’s tile and vinyl flooring comes in so many styles that are a cost efficient means of transforming a room. Or, for something completely new, use floor paint in a kitchen or entranceway to pull the whole room together.
-
Window treatments
Just like paint, changing out a room’s window treatments can give it a whole new inspiration. If your windows currently contain heavy drapes that block the light, opt for blinds or shades that will update the room’s appearance and let the sunshine in.
-
Rearrange the furniture
You might not even have to spend any money at all! Try a simple furniture rearrangement to give a room a whole new life. Then add a little artwork or incorporate one or more of the above suggestions, such as fresh paint or storage, to totally update the environment.
It’s about style; it’s about warmth; it’s about elegance. If your home’s not up to your usual standards of splendor and beauty, you don’t have to break the bank to transform it.
Try one of these budget-friendly home improvement projects, and watch your home go from dull to dazzling … without making your wallet cry!
