If you are buying a home, selling a home or just thinking about updating your home – we are all looking for great ways to update on a budget. The following list is our favorite sites to check in with for home design or do-it-yourself tips.

1. Lifehacker.com – One of our favorite sites to go back to on a regular basis. There are easy projects for those with limited time to projects for the more advanced; everyone can benefit from this site. Our favorite project is the Wine Bottle Torches. It’s a great and chic way to recycle those bottles and add some style to your patio.

2. Home Depot - Who better to get home improvement tips from then a home improvement company. Home Depot as some great “how-to” videos. Not only can you watch and learn with a video, but Home Depot also offers in store home clinics. You can find out if there is one by you by clicking here for Home Depot Home Clinics.

3. Debbie Travis – perhaps one of the best flea market, quick fix people out there (in our humble opinion) Debbie’s site has some great tips on fixing and beautifying those trouble items in your home. From foiling, glazing wood cabinets and creating faux finishes.

4. Georgia Interior Design – Great place to find out what’s new and hot for the home. Not only are there great tips for decorating, but the site carries some useful tips for purchasing the right furniture. Our favorite category is “tricks of the trade” where they share some great tips you can take home to your design creations.

5. Coldwell Banker YouTube Channel - You know we would have to share with you our presence in the home staging tip category. Coldwell Banker’s YouTube channel offers some great tips from experts and agents on “how to repairs” and “Home Staging” ideas. It even showcases some ways to make your moving experience a little easier.

We hope this helps and gives you some great ideas for your home. Do you have a site that you like that you can share with us? Leave it in the comment section below!
