Is your home or garden looking a little tired and dated? Want to shake things up a bit, but don’t have time or money for a full-scale remodel?

We’ve got you covered! In this blog post, we’ll show you how to make subtle changes that will give your space an updated look without breaking the bank.

Home DIY Makeover Tips

1. Paint Your Walls

If you have a room that needs some color, paint is the way to go! A quick fix in an otherwise dull space can dramatically change the look and feel of an entire area.

Plus, when it comes time to sell, fresh coats of wall paint are often one of the cheapest and easiest ways for a homeowner to make an instant upgrade.

2. Install New Cabinet Hardware or Pulls to Transform Your Kitchen or Bathroom

Upgrading old, dated cabinet handles and/or drawer pulls is one of the quickest ways to give any room in your home an updated look – with very little effort! It’s also one of the easiest and most satisfying upgrades you can do yourself.

3. Brighten Your Space 

Switch out old light fixtures and ceiling fans for new ones to instantly brighten up a room. Not only will this change the lighting, but by switching your outdated fixture or fan with something sleeker and more modern, you can also update the entire look of any space in a matter of minutes.

Garden DIY Makeover Tips

The garden is a great place to start when looking for quick and easy DIY makeovers. A few inexpensive changes can bring new life to your backyard or patio and help boost your home’s curb appeal.

1. Fix and Paint Your Fence

Start by replacing or fixing old boards that are damaged. Once done, give the fence a bright coat of fresh paint. Choose white paint for a classic homey feel. 

While at it, why not add some color to your front & back doors. It’s one of the easiest things you can do to freshen up your property. 

2. Be Creative with Your Flower Beds

Jazz up your landscape by adding a few flower beds to your garden. They will not only create a charming scene but will provide a heavenly fragrance every time you step outside. 

It’s a good idea to have a color scheme in mind when planting your flower beds – use a two-color scheme to create an impressive look! Both Succulents and herbs/vegetables can be great flower beds too! Whichever flower beds you choose to add to your backyard, make sure that they are easy to grow and maintain. 

3. Redo your Walkway

Another quick idea is to redo your walkway and improve the look of your yard instantly. A good clean of your brick pavement or a quick paint job is often all that is necessary.

However, if you are after something a little different such as a new gravel path or a stone walkway, just head to your nearest home improvement store for some tips.
