Sometimes simple is best and when it comes to home improvements that are budget friendly, we have some great suggestions. If you're looking to spruce up your space for under 60 ringgits, our list below will present you with some great ideas that will cover all areas and facets of your home.
No matter how small or large your home is, these improvements will be small, but worthy, and give you a fresh look on your home. Earlier, we presented a budget-friendly article on home improvements for under 150 ringgits and now, we're diving even deeper (and cheaper) with a new and improved list of more options!
There are plenty of storage systems that have minimal installation and can give you plenty more organisation for kitchen utensils, children's toys and other accessories. This covered storage system is perfect in this tropical kitchen.
Either choose a cheap professional cleaning company, or choose to do the project yourself in one weekend. Grab the appropriate supplies and breathe new life into your wood or tile floors!
Easy to apply, cheap to buy and a cool design feature, a chalkboard wall in your kitchen or dining room wil allow you to make grocery lists, meal planning and keep your families schedule up for everyone to see.
One small towel warmer can completely change your life! They don't take up much space, they're easy to install (just plug them in) and before you know it you'll feel as though you're living in a spa-style bathroom.
Traditional pendant lights can be found at flea and antique markets and they can add a great sense of style to areas of your home that don't have much light!
Stick to darker wall colours to hide immediate imperfections. This bold sea-blue is perfect and works in tropical or midcentury environments all the same.
If your home is equipped with a loft, why not indulge in a nice DIY project and design a minimalist staircase as a focal point?
Exposed shelving is all the rage and forces you to keep everything organised since it's on display. Find old wood, sand it down, stain it and install it for a whole new look in your kitchen, bedroom or living room!
In smaller kitchens, which are typical of Malaysian liviing, a nice backsplash can make your whole kitchen seem brand new!
Wallpaper is cheap, easy to install and easily changeable as your tastes (or the trends) change. Why not choose something bold and aesthetically appealing for a full-frontal renovation?
New linens are always well worth the money and these little textile indulgences will make your home seem comfortable, plush and relaxing.
Forget curtains, sheers and wooden window coverings. If you're looking for privacy or a way to fully block the sun for a good nights' sleep, pull down shades are your best option.
Lastly, don't forget the outdoor areas of your home! A balcony or terrace is a grace of luck in apartment living and should be treated as such!
