Quality DIY blinds on a budget

By Naomi Foxall โ€ข Leave a Comment

FacebookPinEmailTweet

DIY-ing your blinds? Make sure you check out your local Bunnings! The keen renovators favourite DIY destination now stocks an extensive range of ready-made, easy to install blinds that are available in three popular Dulux colours to match existing decor. Super clever right?!

To help you choose the best blind for each room in your home,ย Bunnings Design Consultant Leanne Watson has provided her tips and tricks on choosing the perfect blinds for your specific needs.

Quality DIY blinds on a budget

A key part of any new home or re-design are the windows โ€“ and how we dress them makes all the difference. Choosing the best blinds for the eyes of your home is important, and with new and exciting innovative products, combining style and practicality has never been easier.

What to consider when choosing blinds

In addition to finding the best style to suit your room, take into consideration the privacy, light control and views. Remember, windows are a major source of heat loss, so the right blinds could even save you on your energy bill!

 

Living and Entertaining room –ย A central space in the home, the living room has many uses so itโ€™s important to consider style and functionality. Day/Night roller blinds or full block-out roller blinds are both perfect options to create your desired level of block-out whilst maintaining a chic, minimal look.

Quality DIY blinds on a budget

Kitchen and Bathroom –ย The โ€˜wet zonesโ€™ of the home, like the kitchen and bathroom, require moisture resistant blinds such as those made with PVC or polyester โ€“ perfect for any areas exposed to water and steam.

Quality DIY blinds on a budget

Bedroom and nursery –ย Safety and privacy is key when selecting blinds for the kidโ€™s rooms, and itโ€™s good to know that there is always the option to choose cord-free blinds. Full block-out roller blinds are also a great option to minimise light, creating a tranquil sleeping environment.

Quality DIY blinds on a budget

To find out more about blinds for your space, visit your local Bunnings store to speak with a team member, or go online to view the widest range of window furnishings for all styles, rooms and budgets.

What a fab, yet sympathetic, makeover of this untouched (but not in a good way!) 50s house by @sellinghousesaus See all the rooms on the blog now via link in bio.

Great use of small space and working with the retro feel of the home while still modernising it.

There's nothing like ticking off little jobs! We f There's nothing like ticking off little jobs! We finally knocked out our 60s brown tile back step and replaced it with a smaller grey one made from @trexcompany Island Mist decking to match our deck (that went in 4.5 years ago) and now painted brick exterior. Making the step smaller allowed us to add in an additional manhole under the back door too to allow easier access under the house at the back. And we made a cover for that too (final slide) using Trex. I say "we" but I really mean our handyman ๐Ÿ˜‰ One plank was enough for both jobs. Why we didn't do this ages ago I do not know but it's done now! ๐Ÿ˜ Installed with @trexrainescape to ensure it stays dry and lasts!

Disclosure: Plank of Trex decking was gifted. I paid for the handyman.

Me and @fantasticfurniture go WAY back! When I fir Me and @fantasticfurniture go WAY back! When I first came to Australia in my 20s, it's where I headed to buy everything I needed for my first apartment at an incredible price! And I've loved watching the range get more and more impressive over the years as my knowledge of furniture has increased. I had no idea how extensive their Aussie Made sofa range was though. I'd love you to check out the options via link in bio as I think you'll be impressed! I think we have a renewed appreciation for Aussie Made and supporting local manufacturing and jobs and this is a great success story. We love a bit of high low decorating, and turns out Fantastic Furniture is a great place to find your family lounge, a special accent chair, an extra ottoman for occasional seating and so much more.

How gorgeous is this Brisbane kids' bedroom?! 

@brittwhitestudio worked closely with the boys (aged 7 and 9) to understand their needs with a bespoke bunk bed solution crafted by BRC Cabinets, featuring ample storage as well as an under-stair hidey-hole, a useful reading nook for books and a built-in charger for electronics. Local craftsmen Emmettโ€™s Ropes designed and hand-tied the ropework on the top bunk and the supporting pillar beneath.

Wallpaper in every single room! What do you recko Wallpaper in every single room!

What do you reckon? You'd think it would be overkill but it isn't because so many of the designs are subtle yet still impactful.

Head over to the blog to see how @grafico_walls transformed this blank canvas Melbourne townhouse with their products, which you've probably seen on The Block over the years. And read how Damian Corney has grown this Melbourne business with wife Adele and a growing team. There's also a look inside the very cool Motley Hotel which has used a whopping 4km of their wallpaper throughout!

You can also watch a video tour with Bec Douros as the house featured on Open Homes Australia over the weekend.
