Living Room

Before: The living room felt cold and uninviting. The white walls and ceiling looked sanitary, and there was excess furniture packed into the space. Plus, the lighting was dated, and too many personal items were peppered throughout.

After: Now it is a warm, welcoming space that will attract potential buyers, thanks in part to fresh paint and new sofa slipcover and accessories. Two stylish chairs draw attention to the fireplace, and the window treatments match the front door.

Dining Room

Before: The dining room was "dull as dishwater," according to expert Donna Freeman. The table, which was the wrong size and shape for the room, blocked the French door, and the laurel leaves atop the mirror needed to go. The one redeeming quality, she said, was the chandelier.

After: Now it is a charming, attractive space that looks larger than it is. The new round dining set has been spray painted to match that great chandelier. Fresh window treatments frame the window and the French door that was nearly unnoticeable before, creating the perfect finishing touch.

Here's how the budget was distributed:

front door $1,097
furniture $433
plants $175
window treatments $153
paint and supplies $85
accessories $50

Total: $1,993
