Not every home renovation needs to take place on a grand scale; even a minor update can have a major impact, and it can usually be done over the course of a weekend! Here are 10 DIY home renovations that would make a perfect weekend project:
Paint Your Front Door
Painting enters the front door scene, substantially enhancing curb appeal within a few hours. Choosing bold colors will certainly make a statement, while a neutral color may be more subtle in blending with the house’s exterior.
Install New Lighting Fixtures
Perhaps a really delicate feeling chandeliers for dining rooms, new pendants over kitchen islands, or moving light fixtures for your old ones can completely change the intimate feel of spaces.
Update Your Hardware
Replacing cabinet knobs, handles, and drawer pulls is a quick, easy way to refresh your kitchen or bathroom. Choose from modern or vintage styles to coordinate with your home’s overall design.
Refresh Your Walls with Peel-and-Stick Wallpaper
You wish to add some spunk to the walls? The best way to do so is by peel-and-stick wallpaper, a fun, non-permanent way of changing the look of your space without muddling the mess with traditional wallpaper.
Regrout Your Bathroom Tiles
Grout will wear away color and cause cracks over time. This is a process whereby re-grouting would renew the appearance of bathroom fixtures, giving it a clean and neat look.
6. Add a Backsplash
Installing a new backsplash is another very easy and simple way to give your kitchen an upgrade. Stick-on tiles are very inexpensive and offer an entirely DIY installment, one that an outside professional contractor would not have to make.
Build a Raised Garden Bed
Gardening is an ideal weekend project, and building a raised garden bed will allow you, besides improving your backyard, to grow a few of your own herbs, vegetables, or flowers.
Install Shelving in Unused Spaces
Float shelve to give some more space for storage or display purposes across places, including bathrooms, entryways, or closets. This is again an easy DIY project which I must say leads to massive changes in the house.
Create an Accent Wall
An accent wall can make a bigger statement rather than in cases where paint, wallpaper, or reclaimed woods are used to add texture to a wall.
Replace Your Bathroom Mirror
Changing your bathroom mirror for a more modern or classical one will give it an outstanding change in the entire look of the bathroom and render a fresh outlook.
Conclusion
These pint-sized yet powerful DIY home renovation projects can allow you to perform some update work without taking a lot of time or money. Whether you are maximizing your outdoor impact or beautifying the home interiors, these weekend projects can be of great help in a short span of time.
