RENOVATING or restyling your home is typically a pretty expensive adventure. However, there are plenty of cost-cutting measures you can exercise, without sacrificing quality, to save a penny along the way.
If you are looking to make big changes to your home without breaking the bank, here are a handful of helpful budget hacks.
- Choose furniture that can also serve as storage, solving two problems in one.
- Shop in the ‘As Is’ sections to find slightly damaged décor or furniture for a fraction of the price.
- Better yet, consider furnishing your home with second-hand items. Local op shops and antique stores are a treasure trove for bargains.
- Rather than custom items, consider readymade.
- Maximise your existing furniture or re-upholster and repurpose.
- Consider using open shelves over drawers.
