If you're getting a bit tired of your surroundings at home, it might be time to repaint or renovate. However, if money is a little tight, the thought of pulling off a whole renovation seems out of reach, not to mention exhausting. Even painting the walls can cost upwards of $100 with paint and equipment, plus you may need several coats, meaning that you'll be at it for a few days.
If you want to feel like you've made a big change without accruing a big credit card charge or spending a whole week on a project, buy a tub or two of paint in bright shades that you love and go to town on these small areas of your home. It'll bring joy back into rooms that you've come to feel "blah" about.
Inside Closets
Painting inside your closet will give you a burst of color and energy every time you go grab a shirt to wear. Go with a color that'll stand out among your clothes, like turquoise, orange, or yellow.
Back Wall Of Bookshelfs
Paint the inside of your bookshelf in a color that you love to draw yourself to the books that you've forgotten about, as well as add fun to an otherwise drab space.
Doors
To make a neighborhood statement, paint the outside of your door in a color that you find inviting and fun. If you don't want to commit to a change that the world can see, paint the inside of your front door, or just your bedroom door. Any color works here, from pastels to brights to jewel tones.
Inside Kitchen Cabinets
Painting inside your cabinets will not only add life to your kitchen, but it'll encourage you to keep the cabinets organized so you can see as much of the color as possible.
Window And/Or Door Frames
This is another great way to add a splash of color without making a huge commitment.
Bed Frame, Side Table, Or Dresser
Painting your furniture can be a lot of fun and is a great way to revitalize a worn-down item. You'll also have an item that will bring the color with you whenever you move!
