Hey Friend!


Do you live in a neighborhood where every house looks the same? 


Did your home come blessed with builder grade finishes that look rather mundane? 


Do you get inspired by watching the transformations on HGTV shows and WISH you could add a little character to your own home? 


This episode is for you! 


I'm sharing 15 of my favorite DIY ideas for how you can add character to your home THIS WEEKEND!!! I've broken them into three categories of difficulty so even the most beginning of DIYer can make change in their home. 


ARE YOU READY FOR CHANGE?


Easy:


1. Paint the front door


2. Paint the interior walls (and ceiling, though a bit more advanced)


3. Paint the millwork and interior doors


4. Replace cabinet hardware in kitchens and bathrooms


5. Add window treatments - the more layered and textured, the better 


 


Moderate:


1. Install dimmer switches


2. Add wall treatments: board & batten, ship lap (make it vertical), chair rail, wainscotting


3. Add wallpaper


4. Replace mirrors


5. Upgrade bathroom fixtures 


 


Difficult:


1. Replace light fixtures 


2. Replace kitchen backsplash


3. Update the fireplace: mantle and/or fireplace surround


4. Install window casings


5. Add built-ins
