time. There are certainly ways to change the design of your home with massive

execute. Sometimes, just a few small alterations can reap substantial rewards
and increase the value of your home in no time. Here are some inexpensive
design upgrade ideas that you can implement right away.
Spruce up your ceiling
by Madison Taylor
Ceilings are often overlooked but it is, in fact, one
of the biggest surfaces in your home. They are also very versatile and there
are many excellent ceiling design ideas that you can choose from. It can be as
easy as just putting on a fresh coat of paint or you can let your creativity
flow and stencil the ceiling yourself. With a bit more investment, however, you
can transform your ceiling into an architectural statement, adding style and
refinement to the space. AlexMoulding.com shared some excellent
coffered and vaulted ceiling
designs that can perfectly match with your home.
Dress up your walkway
by W.B. Homes Inc.
The path leading to your house's front door is the
first impression of your home that guests and potential buyers will have.
Therefore, this is where you should put in some thoughts and efforts into
creating a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere as people walk up to your
doorstep. If you do not already have a walkway, it is not difficult to add one.
A walkway that matches the theme of your house will be especially attractive.
There are many options when it comes to your walkway. You can use bricks for a
more rustic look or tiles for sophistication. You can even arrange the stones
or tiles in a way that makes it an artistic feature as people walk up the path.
Upgrade your front door
by DK Design
The front door is the entrance to your home and
because it is always exposed to the sun, rain, and temperature changes, it is
recommended that you constantly maintain it. Even just a fresh coat of paint
will make the entryway look like new. If the front door is too worn out, it
might be time to get a new one. There are many designs and finishes available
and you should choose one that fits the theme of your home.
Introduce tile flooring
by Elad Gonen
Not only is a tile flooring durable, it is also
aesthetically pleasing. The right tile flooring can
considerably enhance the interior look of the room. Furthermore, it is easy to
clean and comes in a variety of colors, sizes, and patterns. Having a tile
flooring in the kitchen and bathroom is practical because of their water
resistant properties. Light colored tiles can amplify the sense of spaciousness
while dark colored tiles create a cozy ambiance.
Change your toilet
Instead of spending your next home upgrade purchase on
furniture or accessories, you may consider replacing one of the most important
utilities in your home – the toilet. Toilets and bathrooms are often a deciding
factor for potential house buyers. A brand new toilet can be very convincing as
buyers know that you will not be taking the toilet with you when you leave, and
they will be the one enjoying a brand new toilet.
Replace your fixtures
by Rhonda Knoche Design
There are many house fixtures that can be easily and inexpensively
replaced to give your home a facelift. Things like cabinet handles add
character to your kitchen without much effort. Light fixtures can be both
functional and create aesthetic value to enhance the interior of your room.
With the right fixtures, even an old home can look refreshingly new.
As you can see, it is not always necessary to fork out
a large sum of money to raise the value of your home. With creativity and the
right idea, small changes can often go a long way.
