Budget Home Makeover Tips

Most people have to work within a budget, (and usually a tight one) when they want to change the look of their house, so seeing how others have done it can really be helpful.

Deborah and Tom from Salvage Sister and Mister are my guests here today to share how they are remodeling their home without breaking the bank.  Welcome, Deborah & Tom!

Thank you Angie for the opportunity to guest post today!

We believe in making the most with what you have. Our mission is to assist others in salvaging time, money, resources, and moments for your best life.

Just over two years ago, we purchased a home that was in need of some major updating. It was built in the 70’s and not much had changed since then.

At the same time, the budget was, and still is, VERY tight! Anyone else relate?

That called for a BUDGET HOME MAKEOVER!

We have done what we do, make the most of it.

Our dining room, looked like this:

Now it looks like this:

Most of what we got was from Goodwill, Thrift Stores, Craigslist, and free. For additional details, please see this POST.

Our kitchen looked like this:

Painting the cabinets, building a pantry, and flooring made a huge difference.

KITCHEN MAKEOVER

Another area of our home that was dated was the family room area…..

YIKES!

Again, flooring and paint made a HUGE difference. We also lightened the fireplace and made some other changes to that area as well.

We still have many more changes to make on this home, but it’s inch by inch right?

On our site we not only cover DIY and Home Decor, but also many other lifestyle topics to help you with your best life.

Here is a recap of our budget home makeover so you can pin this for later….
