There are several inexpensive ways to give your home a facelift, without spending a large amount of money.

PAINT

A fresh coat of paint can make all the difference in the appearance of your home.

Having your entire home professionally painted can be expensive, instead, choose to do it yourself.

You can paint the cupboards in your kitchen, and did you know you can even paint your countertops?!

It’s true!

ADD OPEN SHELVING

Adding open shelves in a space like your kitchen can make the entire space feel brand new.

It is a fun option because you can change the décor for each season without having a big budget.

CHANGE WINDOW COVERINGS

New window coverings are an amazing way to update your décor without having to spend a lot of money.

Change out old-style options for a fresher more modern option like roman blinds or beautiful shutters.

REPLACE LIGHT FIXTURES

Replacing the old and outdated light fixtures in your home with more modern fixtures can significantly update the appearance of your home.

Choose inexpensive, yet beautiful fixtures like pendant lights and uniform fixtures for other rooms.

REPLACE RECEPTACLE COVERS

Many homes have outdated receptacle and switch covers.

A cheap and inexpensive way to update your home’s appearance is to change these covers to newer styles.

STEAM CLEAN CARPETS

If your carpets are in good condition but could use a good clean, don’t replace them.

Instead, spend time steam cleaning your carpets to give them a fresh appearance.

REPLACE HANDLES

Replace all handles on drawers, doors, and cupboards.

This can be a relatively inexpensive way to update the appearance of your home.

Look for handles that are similar in shape and length to your current ones though so you can easily place them over the previous handle’s holes.

ADD PLANTS

Adding in a few plants is a great way to give your home a facelift.

A Fiddle Leaf Fig or Rubber Tree plants make a big impact, but if you are looking for something easy to care for you could consider a ZZ plant or a spider plant variety.

If real plants are just not your thing, you can purchase some beautiful faux plants like this fiddle leaf fig branch that would be beautiful in a vase for an affordable price

Things like simple window boxes and fresh flowers can add pops of color to the outside of your home.

You can also paint your front door a new color, install a new porch light or even just add a bench.

There are several small and inexpensive ways to give your home a facelift.
