Mengapa Cocok
Budget makeovers succeed because the highest-impact design changes are often the least expensive. A gallon of paint costs $30-$50 but transforms every square inch of wall space. New throw pillows for $40 change the entire color story of a room. A statement rug for $100-$200 anchors the space and hides tired flooring. Rearranging existing furniture costs nothing but creates a completely fresh perspective. The secret is ruthless prioritization — spending on the 20% of changes that deliver 80% of the visual impact.

Pertanyaan yang Sering Diajukan
What is the single best thing to spend money on in a budget makeover?
Paint. For $40-$80, you transform every wall in the room. No other single purchase changes a room as dramatically. Choose a light, modern color if the current walls are dated or dark.
Can I really transform a room for under $500?
Absolutely. Paint ($50), a new rug ($150), throw pillows ($50), a floor lamp ($60), wall art ($80), and a plant ($20) total $410 and can make a room unrecognizable. The key is editing what you already have and adding strategically.
Where should I shop for a budget makeover?
Facebook Marketplace and thrift stores for furniture and frames. IKEA and Target for textiles and accessories. Amazon for lighting and hardware. Home Depot for paint. Estate sales for unique statement pieces at deep discounts.
