You've got to see the refurbished outdoor tub.

The project only took one week.

A just-OK 2014 bathroom gets a stylish and serene budget-friendly makeover.

This retro kitchen redo keeps the cabinets but switches the color scheme.

In this bedroom redo, less is more.

The buffet was an inexpensive Facebook Marketplace find that now looks like it could cost thousands.

"Our goal was to create a modern inspired tiny home on wheels, and that's exactly what we did," this RV owner says.

Take it from this homeowner: In a kitchen redo, one of the most important steps in painting your cabinets is the prep work, so they're nice and smooth. Also important? Splurging on high-quality finishes here and there.

The bones of this kitchen were in great shape, but the color scheme needed a lift.

This DIYer's advice for renovating on a budget? "Get thrifty." She used secondhand finds and DIYs to get an expensive-looking dining room for less.

It's a two-in-one space!

It's all thanks to added paneling, new brass accents, and a soft green paint selection.

The once unused space is now an organized drop spot right at the home's entryway.

A piece of furniture made in a day for less than $350 total? Yes please.

This transformation gives the house a fresh update without losing all its retro charm.

"I asked my neighbor why was he throwing it out, and he said it was just old and worn," this DIYer says. "I saw a table that I could restore."

There are three great cabinet painting tips in this redo by Drew Scott of Lone Fox Home.

The space was trapped in the early 2000s, but a DIY redo filled with luxe touches totally changed that.

"There is life after the boob light," this DIYer says — and there's proof in her super contemporary, streamlined "after."

The wishlist for this redo included more storage, better lighting, a larger sink, better ventilation, and a new backsplash.

Sanding, painting, and sealing were all it took to breathe new life into this dark brown IKEA HEMNES dresser.

The room looks unrecognizable and is much more multi-functional.

"I'm lucky to have some amazing original features, like an exposed brick wall and cast-iron columns, and the doors felt really out of place," this apartment owner says of her dated interior doors.

Another highlight: Countertops that look like marble, but cost way less.

The "After" puts a modern twist on pastel-tiled bathrooms of decades past.

These homeowners found a way to make dated elements of their kitchen look new again — no demo necessary.

The easy DIY project makes the family's entryway way more functional for them.

The new paint color honors the original house while also making it feel modern.

Budget-friendly items and clever touches deck out this small outdoor space and create two distinct zones.

Nope, we didn’t drop a zero on that total cost. Budget-friendly DIYs were the key to this dramatic transformation.

Strategic DIYs gave this once-blah bathroom lots more charm, including a seriously cool custom mural.

Semi-custom IKEA cabinets and DIY countertops are two of the smart choices this homeowner made in his kitchen renovation.

A stick-on backsplash, contact paper countertops, and a portable dishwasher make the space way more functional before a major renovation.

There was no paint required for this simple update.

A smart paint job takes this once-boring fireplace front-and-center.

"Waking up in the space and watching the light filter in through the large windows has become a simple pleasure that I always relish," the homeowner says.

The unexpected paint job gives the vintage living room a completely new look.

"I have seen several cane nightstands and dressers like this online, but they are so expensive! So I made my own affordable option," this DIYer says.

The whole redo is packed with small, smart changes that make a big difference.

These homeowners saved literal thousands (!!!) with this IKEA dupe for built-ins.

You can see this dining room from almost every point on the first floor, so it was important for the design to pack a punch.

The homeowner wanted to combine color and comfort.

So long, stained shower.

The after puts the “modern” in mid-century modern.

“We wanted to transform the space into a whimsical, inviting oasis that welcomed guests and made them feel at ease,” this DIYer says.

“You don't always have to renovate a space to make it look pretty,” this homeowner says.

The “after” feels like an oasis with blue tile and lush plants.

Goodbye, early 2000s fixtures.
