My mum recently decided to spruce up her place, and I thought I'd share some of her plans for a mini home renovation. She's got some great ideas to upgrade her space without breaking the bank!
1. Fresh Coat of Paint: Starting with a blank canvas, she's going for neutral toned walls throughout the house. It's amazing how a fresh coat can brighten up the place and create a cohesive look.
2. Floor Refresh: She's swapping out the old, worn-out carpets for laminate wood flooring in a warm tone. It gives a nice, modern feel and is easier to maintain than carpet.
3. New Lighting: LED downlights in the ceiling and some statement lamps are on the agenda to give a more contemporary feel.
4. Kitchen Makeover: New countertops and backsplashes to give a sleek, polished look. She's also adding some open shelving for a more spacious feel and to display her fancy cookbooks.
5. Bathroom Renaissance: Replacing the old fixtures with modern, sleek alternatives and adding some spa-like touches like a rainfall showerhead.
6. Multipurpose Space: Creating a flex space that can double as a home office/guest room with smart storage solutions.
7. Curb Appeal: Updating the front entrance with a new door, some potted plants, and exterior lighting to give the house a welcoming vibe.
I'm excited to see the transformations! Any other mums out there with some cool upgrades planned or completed? Share your stories and inspiration!
