Home Remodeling – Ideas for House Renovations
Renovating isn’t an easy job to do, and usually it takes a lot of money. However, this doesn’t have to be the case, since there is a lot of things you can do yourself. All you need is some free time and creativity to freshen up your home and give it a completely new look. Here are some DIY ideas for house renovations that you might find useful.
Pastel-colored walls
A combo of pastels and whites will brighten up your room and make it seem clean and comfy. Light blue doesn’t have to be reserved just for baby boys’ rooms – it is great for bathrooms as well, as the combination of the light and soft blue will give it a refreshing look. You can also consider adding some pinky-beige details, such as mirrors, towels, or candles. Avoid dark colors that can make your bathroom look smaller. And since this is the place where you take long relaxing baths, you need a color that will brighten the room – and your mood. Pastel colors are also great for kitchens, and you can combine any pastel color with white wooden chairs. All you need is a brush and one paint can!
Ideas for house renovations : Add some rustic details
The rustic style includes nature-inspired textures and earthy colors that are an excellent choice for bedrooms or living rooms. The most important component of rustic style is a raw natural material, such as wood, wool, and linen. Wooden floors or walls in bright colors will give the real rustic look to the living room with a fireplace. When it comes to decoration, if you opt-in for introducing some rustic elements into your living room or bedroom, you might consider getting rid of shiny and girly details. Choose tin lampshades or details made of rusted metal. To get a more country-inspired look, you may decorate your room with a carved skull lamp.

Plants can be inside as well
Besides the aesthetic values, having plants is actually quite healthy – they improve the air quality and reduce toxins and can improve sleep and lower your blood pressure. So don’t hesitate in bringing those plants inside! The great thing about decorating your house with plants is that you can choose a small plant and put it on your work desk, or a big one that can fill the empty corner and make the space feel complete. If taking care of plants seems too complicated for you, or you just don’t want to think if you need to water them again, there is a solution for that – consider getting a cactus or succulent plant. These desert plants need little watering than all other plants which makes them easy to care for.
DIY Shelves
It only takes a little of material, a drill and some creativity to make a DIY shelf that will give a new look to any room in your house. You can build some “floating” wooden shelves for your bathroom or living room that you can use for keeping books, or cosmetics. You can also use reclaimed wood and create an excellent shelf without spending any money. If you don’t want to risk making any damage to your walls or just think you are not crafty enough, you can make a hanging shelf that only requires a couple of wooden boards that you will merge and hang on a nail. Pretty easy, isn’t it?
The list of the things you can do to brighten up your living space is long, so these are just some tips that might boost your creativity and help you get some ideas on how to make your home even more appealing without spending a lot of money.
