Hey friends, have you ever had that impulse to stand in your slightly old second-hand house, silently thinking in your heart: "It's time to give it a big makeover!" But when I think of decoration, do I instantly have a bunch of question marks in my head, as well as those headache "trouble" words? Don't worry, today I'm going to reveal to you, the renovation of second-hand houses is not so scary, but like an interesting adventure!
First of all, we have to admit that the renovation is indeed a huge project, just like playing a realistic version of "The Sims" - only this time you are a designer + project manager + supervisor triple identity in one! But don't worry, with the right planning, it's a lot of fun!

Tips on how to control your budget for renovating your house:
1. Utilization of old things: many items after the demolition of the old house are valuable, such as metal doors and windows, floors, etc., before the demolition, find a recycling master who can sell things for the master to dismantle and take away, save effort and exchange money!
2. Wall: If the wall is not damaged, there is no cracking and peeling, only some bumps or stains on the wall do not need to be dismantled and redone. Scrape the putty locally and polish it, and re-brush it with your favorite color and immediately look new~
3. If the tile on the ground is not very old and not damaged, you can keep the tile! Save the cost of demolition + garbage removal + re-bricking. The tile is laid on the floor, eliminating the need for ground leveling, and paying attention to measuring the height of the door frame to avoid the situation that the door cannot be closed after paving the floor.
4. Cabinet: If the cabinet structure of the cabinet is intact and not damaged, you can only replace the door panel to save costs, and become beautiful immediately after replacement. Some of the cabinets used in the house are made of solid wood, if you feel old-fashioned, you can paint to change the color, replace the hardware accessories, which is both cost-saving and environmentally friendly.
5. Plumbing: When decorating, the original radiator cannot meet the needs of new home heating in terms of shape and heat dissipation function, and it is also necessary to replace the new radiator. You can choose shapes and colors that match the style of your home, which will be more visually beautiful.
Although there will be fatigue and challenges during the whole renovation process, the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction is incomparable whenever I see the changes in my home. Moreover, you will find that decoration is not only a renovation of the house, but also a process of spiritual baptism and growth.
So, friends, don't be afraid of the "trouble" of decoration, it is actually a key to your dream home. Be brave enough to take that step, and you'll find that all the hard work is worth it! ✨
