How to make your home a great place on a budget?

As some people say, your home is your fortress, so this place has to bring you comfort and be most suitable and convenient to you. You have to decorate it according to your own style and way of life. In other words, the main purpose of our home should be to bring us happiness and we should look forward to arriving back there.


One of the most important things that we can do to our homes to make them comfortable is to clean them first. Cleaning itself can mean a lot of things. The thorough cleaning of a house should be done as regularly as possible and it includes the removal of all kinds of dust, stains from all surfaces of the house. We are able to do most of the work, but there are cases when we can't.

For instance, when mold appears somewhere in our home, we usually try some homemade tricks. That's good but unfortunately they don't  have long-lasting effects. We all know that mold can be a very nasty problem to our home, because it can be invisible to the naked eye, it spreads fast and is difficult to be cleaned without the right tools.
Therefore, in a situation when our home is severely affected by mold, we should turn to a professional service that owns the special equipment for this purpose. I would recommend you the mold removal company Mold Out Services, because they will save you time, money and effort by removing the mold source in your home once and for all.

After our home is properly cleaned, we can step to the furnishment. There are many awesome DIY home projects that can help us save money and turn our home into a better place. Here is a list of some of them:

Organize your cleaning supplies or other stuff:
Make yourself your own cabinets or bookshelves, where you can store you cleaning tools or other items. It will help you keep your space free of clutter. Use old leftover pieces of wood and put them into use by repainting them. You can use plastic containers or hanging shoe racks  for some small items like make-up or nail wear and stick them on the doors of drawers.

Refresh the surfaces:
You can really spruce up your home atmoshere by adding patterned paper or graphics to shelves or wooden piece of furniture.
Also, you can make your plant pots more interesting by painting them and wrapping them in a fancy paper, band, yarn or rope. Or plant your flowers in old wooden boxes, shoes or car tires.



Use unexpected things for a variety of purposes:

Use natural materials such as wood or branches that are cheap and can add a rustic style to your home. Use wood pieces or old window doors to create wonderful photo frames. Wooden pallets can be easily turned into useful coffee tables. Also tree slices can do the job of bathroom/kitchen counters and tables.





Visually make the place look fancy:
You can never go wrong with flowers.  Put them into beautifully ornamented pots or bottles. You don't have to own expenisive paintings to add style to your home. There are nice walpapers out there that are cheap. If you are creative person, you can even use your own masterpieces.

Add glamour
Designate a spot in the room where you have free space and ornament it different kinds of souvenirs or just beautiful china, candles or every day items. By using nail polish and shining paper you can really enliven some old things and create your own glamorous nook.
