When you feel tired of your home interior then probably you should consider spicing it up a little bit. There are lots of easy and inexpensive home improvements projects that will make your place feel more like a home and add value to your property. From redressing your windows to deep cleaning your wall-to-wall carpets, the variety of quality, value- adding projects is stunning. All you have to do is pick one or two, dedicate budget and spend a weekend on it.

Here are these five smart, yet cheap and easy to do home projects that will add style and originality to your tired home interior.

Project 1

A messy garden not only creates bad first impression, but also makes you feel bad. Watching weeds grow bigger by the day can’t be relaxing. So, pull your sleeves and cut down overgrown grass in your front yard. When hiring a landscaper is not an option, renting tools from the nearest hardware store is. General tidy up is a must after you’ve tamed that jungle. Now you can take care for flower beds and trees. Consider giving a lick of paint to your garden door and fence.

Project 2

Less than a clean wall-to-wall carpet is a big burden to your home. Getting it cleaned will make a huge difference to look, smell and feel of your home. Calling a professional company is worthwhile considering as they have knowledge and equipment to deal with all types of stains and blemishes. On the other hand, your local hardware store can offer you steam cleaners for rent. Take one and leave your carpet dirt and grime free.

If you have old hickory wood floor in your home that is showing wear and tear, have it sanded and resealed. This will bring back its shiny, elegant looks.

Project 3

When you consider sprucing up your home interior you should know that small things have great impact. Take for example replacing light switches and outlets. Switches tend to change colour from nice white to unsightly yellow over time. Another low-cost, DIY update option is new door knobs and cabinet/drawer handles. New bathroom and kitchen taps can add to your home new look as well. You can even replace your cupboard doors cheaply while it has enormous impact on your kitchen visual appeal.

Project 4

Area rugs, carpet runners and mats are great idea to add brightness to your home. Besides offering you the opportunity to express yourself, rugs and mats can serve practical purposes. For example when your home carpeting has suffered from a less than careful guest, dropping a glass of wine on it, you can cover the spot with a rug. Placing mats at entry points in your home will reduce the amount of dirt and dust getting to your carpet.

Project 5

Artwork from sales and thrift shops around is one of the best ways to add a distinctive, personal feeling to your home. Placing the work of a favorite artist on your living room wall will show friends and guest alike what you stand for. You can also hang or put around vases, lamps, posters or just items that you cherish for some reason.
