Pull up the old carpet. Getting rid of dingy carpet in your home can be a satisfying task. “What's even more satisfying is revealing lustrous hard wood underneath,” comments Eisenberg. If your home has hidden wood floors, polish them up and see your space transform. No wood? No worries. Replace it with fresh, updated carpet.
Landscaping. Fall is a beautiful time to landscape your yard. Get the whole family involved and turn it into a weekend project. Plan, mulch, plant, and then sit back and enjoy your hard work.
Paint the interior. “Painting can be fun, even meditative,” says Eisenberg. Make sure to choose a color you love, and don't forget to have a little fun with it. Eisenberg suggests adding a festive accent wall or color border.
Make use of empty space. “Planning out how to change your already existing layout can be extremely rewarding, like a puzzle,” says Eisenberg. Transform that unused office into a home theatre or fitness room. Make a pantry out of that extra space in the laundry room. If you have the financial ability, you can even get luxurious – use extra bedroom space to create a walk-in closet or bathroom suite, or turn that unused first floor bathroom into extended kitchen space.
Play designer. “Sometimes the renovation that packs the most punch isn't a renovation at all,” says Eisenberg. Redesigning your space can completely transform it, and it's usually pretty fun. Pick out new accents, from throw-pillows to curtains. Shop for affordable art, buy new furniture and lay it out differently. You will be amazed with how much can be accomplished with the space you already have.
