Are you tired of costly home renovations that seem to never end? What if I said there are simple design hacks, that are budget-friendly and can transform your home in a weekend. Here are three clever ideas that show you don’t have to spend a lot of money to make a huge impact.
Smart Tiles. These specially designed tiles work well in kitchens and bathrooms. These tiles are lightweight, easy-to-handle, and can be easily installed without mess or special tools. What’s the best part? They can be used as backsplashes and are heat resistant. Cristina from Fuji Files installed the tiles over her existing travertine tile and couldn’t have been happier. They’re available from Wayfair, Home Depot and Lowe’s. This makes them accessible to any homeowner or tenant looking to refresh their home without permanent damage.
Check out how Claire Brody unifies different-sized windows in the living room with window treatments. She created the illusion that the curtains were uniform by placing shades outside of the windows and raising the curtain rods to the crown molding. The floor-length drapes completed the look and tied everything together. This simple trick will make any room look more cohesive.
Jenna’s faux stone countertop, which costs $15, is a game changer. She started with a shiny brown laminate countertop and transformed it to a soapstone-like look for only $15. This is not a quick fix, but a long-term solution to add character and value to the space.
These projects aren’t about saving money. These projects are about creativity and resourcefulness. They show that you don’t have to spend a lot of money to create a beautiful house. Why not give them a try? Your space deserves to be given a new look without the high price tag.
“A fresh paint job isn’t only transformative, it’s empowering.”
