Small Bathroom Renovation for $85
This amazing bathroom renovation by Two It Yourself is almost unbelievable. The makeover included painting the walls, lots of storage options, new light fixtures, beadboard work, trim, a new window treatment, and lots of creativity. The homeowner kept her costs down by “shopping” her own house and using what she already had on hand, making the total renovation cost drop. Isn’t it amazing?
$80 Rental Kitchen Transformation
When the landlord doesn’t let you paint or replace anything, you have to be creative to make your kitchen brighter and warmer. This homeowner decided to take the doors off the upper cabinets to make the space more open and put up some pretty paper on the back wall, to make the dishes pop. She also opted for framed photos as a cool backsplash, and a nice rug to cover the ugly linoleum. The rest of the money was spent on cheap solutions to keep things organized:
- tin canisters
- glass jars
- dish drainer
- cutlery caddy
To finish the transformation, Christmas tree lights were reused on top of the cabinets to provide some nice ambient light. Creativity at its best!
