Budget-friendly Home Makeover Ideas
Feeling the need to re-decorate but don't have much of a budget? There are lots of creative ways to mix up, invigorate, and renew your space without breaking the bank.
When working with a tight budget it's best to try to incorporate as many as your existing furniture pieces as possible. A new look can be created by painting, re-purposing, or re-covering furniture pieces. New life can be given to tired sofas with slipcovers, or layers of textiles and pillows.
Take a fresh look at your space and focus on the positive attributes of the room. Work on enhancing these, and downplaying or changing the areas that don't work quite as well.

Two-tone drapery panels are an easy way to tie together the color scheme of a room.
Vintage textiles are a creative way to spruce up your basic sofa. Try mixing patterns and colors, and layering throws and pillows like they did here.
Slipcovers are a faithful friend, always there to rescue you when the times get tough. Need a new sofa, but can't afford one? Measure your sofa length and width and look for a standard slipcover in the closest size in a neutral color.
Paint is your friend! I can't go on enough about how much impact a little wall color will have on your space. I love the pop of green in this entryway, so full of personality!
Long live red! The bold color is nicely tempered with large doses of white.
The soft blue walls set the tone for a relaxing bathroom experience.
Re-using or re-purposing items is an affordable and green practice. An old crate is re-purposed as a serving tray, great idea!
Vintage glove molds and antique tins are given a new, creative purpose.
