Your HomeEasy Ways To Add Value To Your Home For Under $1,000Posted: 7/6/2011 Your home can be more enjoyable to live in and easier to sell when the time comes if you add attractive tiles to kitchen and bathroom walls. (NAPSI)—Whether preparing a home for sale or simply personalizing your abode, upgrading your space can add up. Kitchens and bathrooms are often the first areas prospective homeowners and houseguests notice, so updating these rooms can reap the greatest reward. Luckily, new products on the market can help homeowners update their home without investing an exorbitant amount of cash or time, making it possible to revamp these essential rooms for under $1,000. • Instead of buying new cabinets, purchasing new cabinet doors and drawer fronts and swapping out old cabinet hardware can save thousands of dollars while giving your kitchen a sleek, finished look. • Consider tiling your countertop instead of installing more costly granite or stone for a budget-friendly update. • For both your kitchen and bathroom, swapping out the faucets with newer models can create a more modern look. • It’s a bright idea to replace harsh fluorescent lighting with softer, modern sconces and pendants for a simple but effective upgrade. • Repaint. A new color on walls or ceilings can change the feel of an entire room. Warm dark colors can make a space feel cozier, while light and bright ones help open up a room. • Installing a kitchen backsplash using a DIY-friendly product such as Bondera TileMatSet—a double-sided, pressure-sensitive adhesive on a roll that eliminates the need for mortar and mastic—will help you easily create a professional-looking design while staying on budget. • Using the same adhesive, you can add decorative tile to give your bathroom a spa-like touch. Bondera repels water and is mold resistant. Using plain subway tiles and adding an accent border with decorative tiles can save on supply costs.
