Start Elevating Your Home!

Clean and Declutter

Did you decide what to keep, store, donate, or sell to boost your renovation budget? Are you ready to transform your space? You can start elevating your home yourself by cleaning and decluttering to create more space in your home. For decluttering, gather everything and choose which things you want to keep and which you want to hide in storage. Consider donating items you no longer need in your household or selling them to bolster your home renovation budget with the proceeds.

Do It Yourself!

Are you ready to embark on a budget-friendly adventure to elevate your home? Opting for a do-it-yourself (DIY) task rather than purchasing new items can significantly save you money. Engaging in DIY tasks enables you to thoroughly assess your home’s condition, allowing you to pinpoint areas in need of improvement. Create a comprehensive list detailing all the areas you wish to enhance and renovate. Are you ready to embark on a budget-friendly adventure to elevate your home?

Boosting Lighting in Your Home

Are you ready to illuminate your space with effortless elegance? Make sure that your space is also filled with natural lighting that can give your home a brighter look and an airy feel. Enhancing the lighting in your home is so simple, such as swapping all the old light bulbs or adding a mirror to your home. Mirrors are also great for making your space look wider than it is.

Remodeling

Ready to elevate your home’s style without overspending money? Come and let’s remodel your kitchen and bathroom into spaces you’ll desire to look confident in!

Did you ever consider how changing out cabinet hardware can instantly upgrade your kitchen’s vibe? And what about giving those cabinets a coat of paint to make them look like they were newly built? Add in some extra lighting to brighten up the space, and top it off with floating shelves for a modern touch. But wait! Your bathroom deserves a makeover, too. You also have to consider updating the hardware on your vanity and shower. And do not forget about painting or refinishing those cabinets to make them look brand new. Do you need more light for your morning routine? Consider adding task lighting around the mirror; it can make your space look bigger.

Dive into the details

Are you ready to take your home decoration to the next level? Consider the power of mixing textures in your home by adding accessories such as cushions to add to the style of your sofas or layering rugs or carpets. Add some paintings to a wall or gallery wall and high and wide curtains to make it look tall and spacious. Change and upgrade the hardware, such as doorknobs, cabinet hinges, etc. By blending textures in your decoration scheme, you can create a truly personalized and inviting ambiance that suits your style and sophistication. Now, are you ready for this exciting home transformation journey?

Shop Smart for Stylish Savings!

Do you consider visiting local markets like Tiange, Surplus, or Ukay-Ukay for affordable finds? Are you drawn to the convenience of shopping through Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok? There are many affordable home accessories both offline and online, but how do you ensure you’re making the best decisions for your budget and taste? By meticulously canvassing the prices or comparing their differences before buying, you can make informed choices that reflect your style while staying within your budget and picking the one that is lower in cost but has good quality. Be wise in your choices and take time to pay attention to the details.

Go Green at Home!

Ready to add nature’s charm to your home? Enhancing your home with a piece of nature makes your home livelier. Plants help to give life and sophistication to spaces where your living spaces create a welcoming, natural environment. Having plants in a home brightens the room and nurtures a connection to the outdoors. Also, plants do not cost a lot because, mostly, you just need to take good care of them to live and give your home more life.

Set a Budget!

Are you wondering how to ensure financial peace of mind during your renovation? Begin by assessing the condition of your home and then listing the things you want to accomplish to improve it. Next, set your budget and list down all the things that are needed to pay for the renovation, such as labor, materials, paint, permits, etc. Start canvassing the prices to get an idea of how much it’ll cost you to elevate and renovate your home, and then sum them up.

Also, set aside an emergency fund. Budgeting allows you to set aside additional funds for unexpected expenses at the start of construction. Once your budget is set, there is no need to panic if problems occur. Just stick with your budget and your list so you do not overspend when your home renovation starts.
