A thrify DIY lover transformed her stairs for £170 using budget products from Dunelm and B&Q, which she believes saved her £500.
Jo Saddik, who works as a self-employed nail technician, was looking to install a stair runner - a strip of carpet fitted to the middle of the staircase which can be notoriously costly. However, Jo was determined not to let the rising costs stop her and decided to fit the jute stair runner herself. As reported by LatestDeals, Jo shared her tips with the money-saving Facebook group, DIY On A Budget UK.
She said: "The idea for my stair transformation was generally from Instagram inspiration. I looked around for a jute-type runner for a good while, but they were mostly very expensive and calculated by the steps, so I would probably have ended up paying £300 or more.
