My house is just that, a house. Not a home. It has no soul and it is not a place I look forward to having friends come and see.
We are a bit short on money, so any tips / advice on home improvement for cheap?

Fresh paint, light neutral color. Maybe some new pics from $store. Pick a theme. Lots of throw pillows in different colors. Baskets with magazines. Put out personal stuff, like books on a bookshelf, trophies. Make a collage of pics, Empahsize what you like, what makes you comfortable.Something new to go on coffee table, perhaps. Lots of lamps, give a nice glow and are not so bright. Bedroom put a piece of sheer fabric over lamp for a nice glow. More throw pillows. Get extra pillows 2 for 5 at $store put matching p. cases on so you will have a fluffy look. Buy new comforter set, bed in a bag, that has everything at Wal Mart if have the money. Pick a theme for your kitchen, like apples they are cheerful or fruit. $store has nice curtains and matching apple stuff like soap dispenser. Clear cabinets, less is more to me in the kitchen. Go for a clear and clean approach.Love silk flowers and greenery, to me it makes the outdoors come in. Some green plants.
That’s all I can think of. Hope it helps.
DIY fresh coat of paint.
We’re all in a tight budget, i hear ya’… but first of all, i think you should know what style you like. For example: if you like neutral colors, then go with some small accent in dark brown wood, with some green and beige.
You can go to IKEA, and they have A LOT of things that are really nice for less.

If you make the committment to spend several weekends reaching your goals, and make a plan of action before you start, I’m sure you’ll succeed.
Good luck
