Meanwhile, on page 36, we’ve got some smart solutions for making big changes to your décor, without breaking the bank. Whether you’re looking to change your flooring, window treatments, walls or lighting, you’ll discover plenty of bright ideas. If your bathroom is looking a bit below par, but money is tight, then turn to page 48 to discover some affordable ways to give it an update, whether you want a whole new suite or just a few quick-fix accessories.
