Linoleum floors and laminate counter tops got you down? Even if an expensive remodel isn’t in your budget, if you can spare $72, you can make over a whole room!

Our viewer Tasha Agruso from Greensboro, North Carolina, had recently moved into a new home, and wanted to tackle a small project that would give her motivation to finish updating the whole house. She spent 48 hours and less than a hundred dollars, and turned her dated laundry room into a sunny space where she’d actually want to spend time!

If you have a surface that has no cracks, Agruso says you can coat it with concrete for a modern update.

UPCYCLE STUFF YOU ALREADY HAVE

Agruso found old curtains lying around and realized they’d be perfect for her updated laundry room. (As another thrifty viewer once told us: “Shop at home first.” You never know what you might find.) She also reused the leftover paint from her kids’ room.
