5 Affordable Home Renovations

December 14, 2017 by Annie

If you’d love to update your home’s interior spaces and are interested in increasing your home’s value, simply continue reading to discover 5 affordable home renovations, which won’t break the bank.

5 Affordable Home Renovations:

Repaint your home’s interior walls

One of the simplest ways to give your home a new lease on life is to repaint your home’s interior walls. If in doubt, you can never go wrong opting for a fresh coat of white paint. If your home features wallpaper which dates your home, just paint right over your old wallpaper.As an added bonus, you’ll be able to cover up any unsightly marks, which may be left on your walls. Examples of which may include pen marks, which are common if you have children as well as dirt marks.

Invest in a brand new kitchen island

If you’re interested in modernizing your kitchen, it’s well worth having a modern kitchen island installed. Not only will a kitchen island provide you with extra storage space and cooking space but you’ll also be able to enjoy informal meals around your new kitchen island. Simply invest a couple of stylish stools, which can be pushed underneath your new kitchen island.As a bonus, by installing a kitchen island, you’ll be able to entertain your guests, whilst you’re cooking in your kitchen.

Repolish your hardwood floors

If your home boasts natural hardwood floors, it’s well worth investing in a high-quality varnish to ensure that your hardwood floors shine like new. If you haven’t polished your wood floors, since you moved into your home, you’ll be shocked at how great natural wood floors can look. In some cases, having gleaming natural wood floorboards can increase your home’s valuation by several thousand dollars.In order to maintain your hardwood floors, make sure to repolish your floor floors, once every 12 months. Although high traffic areas, such as the entrance of your home, can benefit from being polished every 6 months.

Use tiled backsplashes to decorate your bathrooms and kitchen

If you’re a fan of utilizing decorative tiles to decorate your home, it’s well worth purchasing tiles in bulk, in order to create a backsplash for your kitchen and bathrooms. Better yet, while a professional will be able to install stunning backsplashes in a few hours, if you’re looking to save money, you may be able to create your backsplashes on your own.

Better yet, not only will a decorative backsplash add a touch of elegance to your kitchen but it will also protect your walls from the splashes and spills which occur when you’re cooking up a storm.

Turn an unused spare bedroom into a walk-in wardrobe

If you have a spare bedroom or guest room, you may want to consider turning it into a walk-in wardrobe. As most master bedrooms lack adequate space for your clothes, shoes, and accessories. To create a walk-in wardrobe simply purchase a few free-standing clothing racks and have a variety of shelves and closets installed.

So if you’re serious about renovating your home and giving it a new lease on life, it’s well worth implementing some of the home renovation tips listed above!

 

About Me

Hi! I'm Annie and I have 3 kids (all in their teens - yikes!). My mommy blog isn't all about lunches and DIY - it's also about humour. Like how my kids make fun of my texts as if I don't know how to use emojis (I DO!). Now that I have a bit more time - since my kids don't want to hang out with me (teenagers), I have taken up blogging.
