We all know where to splurge and where to save when it comes to fashion — a good blazer is worth its weight in gold, while trendier pieces that go out of style are best bought at a discount store. But what’s the equivalent for home decor? Read on to learn what pieces are worth investing in and where you can save a few bucks.
SAVE — UNIQUE PIECES Cool, distinctive pieces can either cost a fortune or not much at all, so why splurge when you can save? Hunt for fabulous finds at garage sales, used goods stores or vintage shops. Some treasures are perfect as-is, and some require just a bit of paint to reveal the diamond in the rough.
SPLURGE — KITCHEN BACKSPLASH An attractive backsplash can make any kitchen stand out and look expensive. It’s also a relatively small area, so a pricier tile won’t break the bank but will be sure to stand the test of time.
SAVE — BED LINENS These take quite a beating from frequent washing and aren’t visible to anyone but you and your partner, so don’t spend a fortune. Bed linens are also an item where inexpensive doesn’t have to mean lower quality — you can often find higher thread count sheets on sale, and since they’re covered by the duvet you can get whichever colour is left.
SAVE — GREENERY Flowers and plants you have inside your home or out are vulnerable to the weather, how much sunlight they receive, and whether or not you can remember to water them. And flowers and plants are nice to change along with the season, with bright florals looking great in the spring and summer, richer tones for fall and poinsettias during the holidays. Freshen up your home quickly and economically by saving on greenery. Depending where you live, you can sometimes even pick outdoor flowers for free.

Trick everyone into thinking you had an expensive home renovation We all want our guests to think that our rooms could easily be included in the pages of a magazine. But a complete overhaul can be pricey and time-consuming, and isn’t a realistic option for most of us. Trick your friends and family into thinking you had an expensive renovation anyway with these creative tips that tell you which areas to focus on to get the most bang for your buck.
Spruce up your yard for fall
CROWN MOULDING Known as jewelry for the walls, nothing says classic sophistication like crown moulding. This inexpensive, DIY-friendly project is an easy way to transform any room. Achieve a custom-made look by layering store-bought mouldings and place them at the top of walls and around entryways to draw the eye upwards and visually heighten your space.
ORGANIZE Baskets are your best friends. Hide unsightly clutter and find things more easily by housing all your things in a dedicated container. A gorgeous, antique-look wicker chest or basket can conceal kids’ toys, extra linens or the remotes for all your gadgets. You’ll be amazed at the difference replacing your mess with beautiful things can make.
CLEAN UP Don’t just put away all your stuff. Do a deep cleaning of every room — move your stove, bookcases and other furniture and appliances you wouldn’t clean around normally. Polish your floors with a product made especially for hardwood or ceramic, and hire a professional to steam clean your carpets.
WINDOW TREATMENTS
are tailored to fit your specific window dimensions lend a flawless, expensive look to any room. Vignette, a fashionable take on traditional Roman shades available at Hunter Douglas, features exclusive fabrics, rich textures and no exposed rear cords for enhanced child and pet safety. Be sure to hang window treatments from the ceiling instead of where the window begins to make the room look larger and grander.
Well-designed window fashions that

Chunky sweaters, pumpkin spice lattes and multicoloured leaves — some things are simply quintessentially fall. Others like giving your home an outdoor facelift may not necessarily be top of mind, but rich fall colours open up a realm of possibilities for creative yard decorations. Not just for the summer and holiday seasons, outdoor decor help create a warm and welcoming exterior. Drawing inspiration from the season is the best place to start. A simple harvest wreath made from leaves, berries and twigs uses the gorgeous reds, oranges and browns of autumn. Accent it with a burlap bow for a rustic touch. If you want to add some farmhouse charm, repurpose household items to breathe new life into them. The opportunities are endless — an old door that used to have windows on it is the per-
fect way to display fall blooms in hanging flower pots. A chair missing its seat can act as a rustic flower pot stand. An old set of shelves is ideal for showing off vintage watering cans. And if you don’t have these hanging around, you can always pop by a local used furniture outlet, like Habitat for Humanity ReStore. For added pops of colour, place pots of burgundy chrysanthemums, purple asters or ornamental cabbage along your walkway. Flowers always freshen things up, especially when the temperature starts to drop. Create a country aesthetic by placing decorative gourds and pumpkins in between the flowers. These will transition well into late autumn, and you can even repurpose the pumpkin for carving a jack-o-lantern on Halloween.

Paint your home’s exterior like a pro Painting is an inexpensive way to transform just about any space. Many people paint the interiors of their homes, but home exteriors also can undergo dramatic makeovers with fresh coats of paint. Timing the job right and heeding some tips from professionals and do-it-yourselfers can make the job go smoothly.
CONSIDER THE TIME OF YEAR Consider local weather patterns and forecasts when planning an exterior painting project. Choose a time of year when there is little rain and low humidity, such as autumn. Keep in mind that the paint will require a couple of days to dry completely and cure, and that can be difficult in damp weather. Don’t hamper the final outcome with poor timing.
PREPARE THE PAINTING SURFACES Resist the temptation to start painting straight away. Paint may not adhere to unprepared surfaces, and dirt and other
debris may show through and mar the finished product. Repainting a home’s exterior will likely involve removing peeling or chipping paint prior to making your first strokes. Wear protective gear when scraping, sanding or brushing old paint, as such tasks can generate dust that can be dangerous to inhale, particularly if the old paint contains lead. Employ a chlorine bleach solution to kill any mildew and to scrub any dirt from the house. In addition, repair any cracks or imperfections. For example, if you’re painting stucco, you may have to fill in any pitting or holes. Use this opportunity to inspect caulking around windows and doors. Re-caulk as needed to seal up draughty areas or those that may cause water infiltration prior to painting.
PRIME AND COVER STAINS It may be a little extra work, but apply a quality primer as the first coat to hide any imperfections, such as wood knots or discolouration from weathering.
Primer provides a smooth, even surface upon which to put your paint colour. Once you have applied the primer, test your paint colour in a small, inconspicuous spot to see how the colour looks in the daylight. You do not want to paint the entire home only to find out you dis-
like the colour.
TRY THESE PAINTING TECHNIQUES Rent a paint sprayer for large surface areas. The sprayer will produce a more uniform application and is less time-consuming than painting everything with a

brush or roller. Make sure you’ve chosen a high-quality paint, as the added expense is worth it if the paint lasts longer and coats more evenly. Also, if you have purchased multiple cans of paint, mix them all in one large bucket to ensure the same colour; otherwise, the colours may not match perfectly. The experts at HGTV recommend working your way from top to bottom in a smooth, controlled manner, overlapping each stroke by eight inches. Trim and hard-to-reach areas should be left for brush work so you can maintain control over your tools. If you are painting areas like steps or staircases, consider adding a little finegrain sand to the paint to improve traction, as paint can be slippery when wet. If painting your home’s exterior is beyond your capabilities, hire a professional. He or she will get the work done in a timely manner, and you can rest assured that the job will be done correctly.
