Trending on Remodelista: 5 Budget Ideas to Transform a Room

August 14, 2020

These small ideas for small budgets from Remodelista can have a large impact on the look of a room:

1. Perk up your place with greenery.

2. Source the cheaper version of your object of desire.

Above: Izabella chose this faucet from Grohe over a fancy faucet that cost a $1,000 more—and she doesn’t regret it one bit. See High/Low: Dornbracht vs. Grohe Kitchen Faucet.

3. Add a simple sconce.

Alexa found \10 Classic Reading Sconces—including some great inexpensive ones. This light from West Elm is just \$79.

4. Choose vintage.

There are so many reasons to buy vintage, but one great reason is that it&#8\2\17;s often less costly to buy secondhand. Plus, look at how much character vintage pieces add to this summer cabin.

5. Organize your shoes.

You can transform your entryway by simply getting your shoes in order. This Rolling Hidden Shoe Storage from Yamazaki can be rolled beneath a cabinet for total concealment, and it costs just \$65. See more in \10 Favorite Shoe Storage Cabinets.
