| Redesigning Your Home On a Budget Posted: 01 Dec 2015 10:24 AM PST There's nothing better than being able to redesign your home your way. Whether you moved into a home filled with characteristics that showcase another person's vision or designed your own home but are ready for a new look, it's always good to make adjustments that reflect your current personality. For some, the goal of a home redesign can seem daunting when finances enter the picture. Fortunately, there are plenty of great strategies you can use to redesign your home your way while on a budget. Do It Yourself—Or With Others Most homeowners are tempted to seek the help of a professional when redesigning a home. Depending on the skill level required for some jobs, hiring a professional is a good idea. But if you and people in your life have design and decorating skills, you can handle a lot of the projects on your own. For instance, rather than hire a painter, consider finding a great paint store, choosing your own colors, buying paint and rollers and having a paint party. You can also make simple decisions like choosing between laminate and hardwood flooring, and even have friends and family help you install it. Find online tutorials to help you make doing it yourself easy! Shop Secondhand and Online Another great way to update your home on a budget is buy taking advantage of the discounts you can enjoy by shopping secondhand and online. Secondhand is another word for used, which some people like to avoid. But very often, secondhand items are well maintained and can make perfect additions to your home. Whether you're looking for kitchen cabinet pulls, window drapes or a dining room table, consignment shops, thrift stores, estate sales and more could be your perfect solution. Also, enjoy shopping with warehouse stores like Sam's Club or companies that specialize in offering online discounts. Don't Be Afraid to Play the Wait Game You might be tempted to get your home design completed in a short period of time, but with a little patience, you can find amazing deals on the items you want most! Continuing to shop secondhand and online at a slow and steady pace until you find the right deals can ensure you not only secure the perfect pieces for your home, but also help you save on big budget purchases that can make your home redesign dreams a reality! |
