Desert Tile Blogger • Sep 23, 2020

Does your favorite space at home need some remodeling? Not sure exactly what you want? Here are some simple diy home projects that can transform your space.

Home renovations can be expensive, ranging up to $75,000 depending on how big your house is. 


If you want to freshen up your home either for yourself or to resell it, you may realize that you don't have the budget for all those renovations. 



However, there are plenty of DIY home projects that can make your place feel brand new while also not breaking your bank.

Add a Backsplash

Adding backsplash into your kitchen might sound like it needs to be done by a professional, but it's actually really easy to do it on your own.


You can go to a hardware store to pick out the type and color of back splash you want. Lots of them come with peel-and-stick tile. So you really just need to stick a giant sticker to your wall. When you buy some peel-and-stick backsplash, you don't need any fancy or expensive tools to apply it. 



You'd be surprised how affordable it is too!

Repaint Your Furniture

New furniture can always help to freshen up a room, but new furniture can also be really expensive. 



Over time, your furniture will collect scuffs and marks on it, but that's nothing a fresh coat of paint can't fix. All you have to do is match the stain or paint to your furniture and then pay for a bucket of paint. 

Clean Your Floors

One easy DIY projects for home is to just redo your floors or clean them a little bit.



Floors really take a beating as the years go on, and it'll get harder and harder to keep them clean. You can grab a few cleaning supplies and do this yourself, but some floors are difficult to clean. In some cases, you may have to call a professional

Paint the Walls

You might not realize it at first, but changing the color or designs of your walls can be a great way to really change the space. 


Painting your walls or putting up removable wallpaper can be the best option. You can find these in all kinds of textures and colors to really personalize the room.



And the best part is that if you need to redo it later on for whatever reason, it's not a permanent change. 

Repaint the Front Door

Lastly, you could freshen the outside of your home by repainting the front door.


There are plenty of renovations you could do outside, but updating the front door is one of the easiest to do on your own. 



To add more to your curb appeal, make sure that you choose a bold color that will make the door stand out from the rest of the house.
