5 DIY cheap - or FREE! - design ideas to spruce up your home!

With a new season rolling in (for the rest of the country, anyways - still hot here!) a lot of home owners start to think of making changes/improvements within their home.  Here are 5 DIY inexpensive - or FREE! - ideas:

1.  PAINT YOUR FRONT DOOR - A fresh color in a warm tone can make your home seem more welcoming and increase curb appeal.  All you need is a quart of paint and an afternoon to transform your home!

2.  REARRANGE YOUR FURNITURE - Start with the largest piece of furniture and turn it towards a focal point - window, fireplace, etc.  Build the rest of the room from there!  Or you can angle a bed or sofa that is currently flush against a wall for a new look.  It's FREE, and if you don't like the results, they are easily undone!

3.  CHANGE OUT DOOR/DRAWER HARDWARE - New pulls or knobs are fairly inexpensive but can reinvent your doors or kitchen cabinets!  All you need is a screwdriver to install....

4.  MOVE YOUR ACCESSORIES AROUND - Create a whole new look using your existing pieces!  Gather them all up, then redistribute them through your home in new ways.

5.  ADD AN ACCENT WALL - Bring a bold new feel to any room in your home - be it with a neutral shade all the way to an extreme dark color.  Takes a day and less than $50 to have MAJOR impact!
