Don't despair if you are short on cash. You can still have a beautiful Cookeville home. Sometimes a little elbow grease is a decent replacement for extravagant money, and other times you can get great deals by shopping around for items that are usually costly.
Indoors
Simple things can mean a lot. You can change the entire look and feel of a room by simply changing the window treatments. New drapes or blinds add warmth and appeal and instantly give your home a fresh new look.
If that's not enough, a fresh coat of paint transforms any room. Paint is one of the least expensive home decorating tools, and you can save even more money by doing it yourself instead of hiring a painter. It doesn't require a lot of skill and is hard to do wrong.
If your furniture looks tired, adding new throw pillows in vibrant colors that either match or contrast your room's colors can make a world of difference. Pillows also help your old furniture regain its appeal.
The bathroom is the second most commonly remodeled room in the house (after the kitchen), but it can cost a lot of money to replace cabinets, fixtures, or tile. Simple things can help give your bathroom a face-lift:
· Add candles for a lovely glow and inviting fragrance.
· Get new towels to hang and repaint walls.
· Re-grout any tiled areas for a fresh new feel.
Outdoors
Coming home from a long day of work to a worn-out looking home can be a downer. Add some hanging baskets of flowers or vines by the door and trim your path with a flower bed or decorative stone. Apply a little labor and repaint the trim on windows and doors to give your home a quick lift.
It doesn't take a lot of money to make your home a haven.
