It’s easy to think that a home makeover means costly renovations, building work and deep pockets. But in reality, anyone can update their home without this costly approach.

Let’s explore some amazing ways you can update your home on a budget.

Your dining area

Not everyone has the luxury of a dining room, however, ensuring you have an area that is dedicated to downtime and good eating habits can quickly transform any space. This range of dining tables by RJ Living boasts numerous styles and can help you create the perfect centrepiece for your kitchen or dining area. Perfect for whether you’re looking for somewhere to enjoy meals as a family, to enjoy intimate, romantic meals with your partner or somewhere to host and welcome your guests. You’ll also be able to decorate your centrepiece, with flowers, detailed place settings and table decorations.

Update your lighting

Lighting can make or break a room. Dull, overhead lights create shadowy corners and a dull gloomy atmosphere that makes any room appear small and cramped. Brightening up your home with the right balance of ambient, task and accent lighting can transform your home with the flick of a switch. Whether you want to set the mood in your bedroom with dimmable lights or create a cosy atmosphere in your living room with table lamps, the right lighting application can transform your home. Consider under cabinet lights, downlight LEDs, or accent lighting to dramatically illuminate your favourite photos or artwork. And don’t forget about your outdoor space!

Change the hardware in your home

Nothing makes your home look unloved and dated more than tired-looking handles, knobs and pulls on your cabinets. Whether they’re in your bathroom, your kitchen or in your bedroom, dated hardware that looks dirty and old-fashioned needs to go. Thankfully, you don’t have to upgrade your entire kitchen or replace your cabinets and storage options, whether you choose something sleek and modern or consider a more traditional style, by simply updating the handles and pulls on your units you can transform these spaces in an instant.

Focus on your window dressings

Dusty curtains, broken blinds and dull shades… your window dressings don’t just impact the way our homes look on the inside, but also how they’re viewed from the street. Smart window dressings give your home kerb appeal and make it look much more welcoming. Indoors, you’ll find a new pair of curtains and matching pullbacks not only transform your rooms but also make them more energy efficient. Whether you’re leaning towards fabric, blinds or shutters ensure they’re measured properly before you fit!

Clean and rearrange

The ultimate in budget-friendly overhauls, cleaning isn’t as exciting as a home makeover, but it can have a strong impact. Over time our homes become tired, dusty and grimy and often, all they need is a good deep clean to bring them back to life. Swapping your furniture around and trying new layouts can also dramatically change the rooms in your home and, the best part? It’s free!
