4 Budget-Friendly Home Renovation Ideas

Getting a great look for a great price is always a great thing. Consider these four budget-friendly renovation ideas to enhance the look of your home.

Create an Instant Kitchen Island Using a Spare Table

If your kitchen doesn’t have an island don’t feel adrift at sea. If you have a table that’s not in use it can be a perfect alternative. Situated in the center of your space your faux kitchen island can be used as a prep station, and you can add bar stools for breakfast gatherings. The island can remain stationary, or you can add rolling casters to move it when you want.

Paint a Stair Runner

This is really cool. If you’ve got uncarpeted stairs make a statement by using paint to create a runner. Choose a solid color or paint a pattern to turn your stairs into a focal point. If you want you can periodically change your paint design. If you plan to stick with one look be sure to coat the paint with polyurethane to protect the finish.

Appoint an Accent Wall

Creating an impact wall doesn’t have to negatively impact your budget. Choose a small wall to make a statement, maybe even a wall in a bathroom that could use some pizazz. Wallpaper is a great way to add pattern and color to a space. If you’re not comfortable with using traditional wallpaper there’s always the peel-and-stick kind, which can easily be removed if you decide to change your décor.

Add a Headboard

If your bed doesn’t have a headboard you’ve got a great opportunity to make a statement in your room. Go for a whimsical look with a portion of a white picket fence. Or, try your hand at something a little more rustic using reclaimed wood in a variety of natural tones, or randomly painted and whitewashed for a more specific look. Achieve a stately design with a variety of ornate picture frames that fill the shape of a headboard.
