I gave my council house kitchen a fresh new look on a budget – don’t sleep on B&M, Home Bargains and Asda for cheap buys
A WOMAN has shared how she gave her kitchen a mega makeover whilst on a budget.
The DIY fan explained that she wanted to give her council house kitchen a new look, but without having to splash too much cash.
As a result, she nabbed cheap buys from Asda, B&M and Home Bargains to decorate the space, alongside DC-Fix from The Range, to give her counters a fresh new feel.
Showing off the impressive kitchen transformation on social media, she said: “DC-Fix my kitchen sides with me.”
At the start of the clip, we saw the woman’s kitchen prior to its makeover.
It was a very plain space, with dark work surfaces.
However, the DIY enthusiast then got to work and used DC-Fix – a sticky back plastic that can quickly and easily transform surfaces in your home – to give her space a glamorous overhaul.
The savvy woman confirmed that she got the DC-Fix in the shade Ribbeck Oak, for just £6.70.
She explained: “I got the DC-Fix from The Range.
“I bought three rolls and it was the perfect amount!
“I’ve still got quite a bit left too.”
At the end of the clip, we saw the woman’s finished kitchen, which had been totally transformed and was now extremely bright and modern.
She completed the space with a beautiful vase of pampas grass, as well as a matching beige microwave, toaster and kettle.
The woman later confirmed that she nabbed her tea, coffee and sugar pots from B&M and her kettle from Asda.
She also explained that she got white silicone caulk from Home Bargains and used masking tape on the sides and the tiles to make it look neat.
The proud DIY fan later added: “[It] looks so much better.”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @homeat41, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 54,700 views.
Social media users were impressed at the quick and easy DIY overhaul and many took to the comments to express this.
One person said: “Looks so nice.”
Another added: “This looks fab.”
A third commented: “Looks amazing!”
