When summer comes around, it’s normal that you feel like you want a refresh. However, we can’t be gutting our house every summer - we’d be constantly under construction mode! And that’s without even mentioning the cost.

However, there are a few types of renovations you can make to get that fresh summer feeling in your home, without breaking the bank. 

That being said, here are some ideas:

Paint your home

One of the easiest and most affordable ways to give your home a fresh new look is by painting the walls. A new coat of paint can make a big difference in a room and is a relatively simple DIY project.

Swap out your lighting

Updating your lighting fixtures can instantly change the mood of a room. Consider replacing old fixtures with new ones or adding new lamps or accent lighting to improve the ambiance.

Replace your hardware

Replacing the hardware on your cabinets and drawers can give your kitchen or bathroom a whole new look. You can find affordable options at most home improvement stores.

Put in some new flooring

If you have old or worn-out flooring, consider replacing it with something new. While this can be pricey depending on what kind of flooring you like, vinyl plank flooring is a budget-friendly option that looks great and is easy to install.

Update your bathroom 

Renovating your bathroom can get pretty pricey pretty quickly if you’re not careful. But small changes go a long way in this typically small space! Simple updates like replacing the shower curtain, adding new towels or a rug, and swapping out the toilet seat can make a big difference in a bathroom.

Declutter and organize your home

Sometimes the best renovation is simply decluttering and organizing your space. Get rid of anything you no longer need, and invest in some organizational tools like baskets, shelves, and closet organizers. This will make certain spaces in your home feel like new.

Remember, you don't have to spend a lot of money to make a big impact in your home. By focusing on small, budget-friendly updates, you can transform your space without having to dig into your savings.
