B A Hometypes House

The natural wood shines in its new surroundings.

Here's proof that you don't have to rip everything out and start new.

The designer-homeowner used a pop of color in an unexpected place.

An IKEA hack, materials rescued from the trash, and plenty of Goodwill shopping all help make this bedroom feel like an oasis.

The homeowners mixed DIYs (and IKEA cabinets!) with pro work to get the kitchen of their dreams.

Tweaking the layout made a huge difference in the function and style of this laundry room.

The "after" feels like a breath of fresh air.

A few small changes went a long way in this teeny space.

Not to mention, a seriously refreshing new paint color.

Plus, it serves as the perfect divider between the living and dining rooms.

Gold accents found in the mirror, wall art, faucet, and hardware tie it all together.

The clever faux drawers are the perfect blend of style and function.

Beautiful blue accents tie the whole space together.

Low-cost updates made a huge difference in this dated, smelly bedroom.

Aside from being ultra practical, this redo is gorgeous to boot.

"There are still a few stray big toy items that cannot fit in the drawers or cabinets, but overall it has the perfect mix of functionality, open space, and design I was craving," the homeowner says of the "After."

The reno makes everything look bigger and brighter, but still has mid-century charm fitting of a mid-century house.

The redo turned a "meh" sleep space into a dreamy retreat.

It just took a little reimagining to help get this laundry room's essentials off the floor.

The biggest piece of the project cost just $160.

No natural light? No problem.

The new space has enough room for two islands. Yes, two!

There's a lot of style packed into this little half bath.

No, there's not a zero missing in that number.

This paint-filled makeover has one of the coolest fridge transformations ever.

The DIY project totally changes the look of this home's entryway.

It took three years, but this redo was worth the wait.

The after perfectly blends style and function.

The before looked more like a demo site than a kitchen — but the after is a dream cook space.

A few small changes made this living room way more welcoming for the whole family.

This porch is lighter, brighter, and better than ever.

An aunt created a brand-new, totally cute and chic bedroom for her niece that can change as her style and interests change.

And more stylish! The blue and white DIY tile is a must-see.

The dark color made this bathroom feel way smaller than it actually was — but thankfully, some smart upgrades totally fixed that.

A bed without a headboard can make the whole bedroom feel imbalanced, lackluster, and a bit like a temporary college-type setup, but some bedrooms definitely pull off the cool and minimalist no-headboard look. To combat feelings of incompleteness or flatness, those successful no-headboard beds are typically framed by some sort of feature wall, artwork, sconces, or statement-making end table-lamp combos.

This airy, spacious redo will win over even open concept skeptics.

Before, the homeowner's laundry room "was dark and cold with no windows," she says. Now, it's a black and white beauty. Not to mention, it's much more functional.

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

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

Black accents and some faux greenery tie everything together.

This sophisticated redo was completed in phases over two years.

The porch's new look also includes a new ceiling, new pillars, and a modern light fixture.

The space features glimpses of the original brick, which runs three layers deep.

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

These DIYers started with found furniture and ended up with a beautiful new console and a faux fireplace.

This ambitious overhaul took seven months and came with a $185,000 price tag.

The project cost $200 and took advantage of an odd layout.

A DIY redo totally transformed this once-carpeted bathroom.

The original kitchen was an incohesive mash-up of black granite countertops, poorly painted white cabinets, brushed nickel hardware, and several shades of beige.

It all comes together with the perfect pink peel-and-stick wallpaper.

The ambitious project took two and a half months to complete.

The first step in this two-week project was to paint the walls and floors white.

The project came to life little by little over the course of six months.

Four days of work and $265 turn this drab, dated bathroom into a happy and bright place to start the day.

A gorgeous fireplace gets a glam, modern refresh to tie the whole room together.

Cherished collections of milk glass and old photos add meaning and character to this revamped master bedroom.

A funky black-and-white accent wall transforms a simple, small bathroom.

It only took a couple days to remake this space.

Now, it feels brighter and bigger (even though it's still the same size).

This bathroom went from "blah" to "ahhhhh."

The new room is filled with character.

Here's proof that paint can change the whole vibe of a kitchen.

The after is 100 percent wow.

This speedy redo shows how you can work smarter, not harder.

Some clever paint projects went a long way in this little bathroom.

The after is full of sunshine (even when it's cloudy).

"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.

This kitchen may be mostly white, but it's still packed with personality.
