Sometimes, we are discouraged by the tiny size of a room in the house from furnishing it with the bare essentials; at other times, space is not the issue, but it is the budget that sets the limits. In these cases, however, it is not clear that you should throw in the towel and be satisfied with what you have: there are often other ways to furnish room.

In most cases, it is bathrooms and the kitchens that pose these challenges, but even the bedroom is sometimes a headache. Here are some cases in which people, using DIY, have managed to revolutionize their homes so much that they are now unrecognizable.

It took 13 months to revolutionize this kitchen, but it was really worth it. The furniture has kept the style almost unchanged, but a coat of paint has really changed things. Then, by updating some elements such as the shelves, the sink and the appliances, the result was a farmhouse kitchen worthy of appearing in a magazine.

This bedroom, on the other hand, was transformed in two days by a single person. On closer inspection the changes and additions are only very few, but the space has improved a lot!

"A poor man's backsplash - done while staying in the house". Here, some backsplash tiles and a coat of paint transforms a boring kitchen beautifully.

"Retro renovation in Seattle! I transformed my toilet into a space utility bathroom." It's impossible to disagree. And the courage to use the same color on almost every surface, with a few color variations in the mosaic-covered part in the shower area, is to be applauded.

An update to a tiny bathroom, taking advantage of the available space: an overly large and old bathtub makes way for a furniture combination that is much more in step with the times.

"I've been away on business for two weeks and my wife surprised me with this low-cost basement bathroom remodel!" Who doesn't find a tiny but bright and tidy bathroom much more inviting?

Sometimes you don't even need anything more a coat of paint on the wall: "The somewhat bizarre paint job I did in the bathroom fills me with pride." And with good reason, we would say!

Are you ready to change the look of a room in your home?
