My council flat is so stylish thanks to second-hand finds – plus the treasure chest place you need to look for bargains

A SAVVY woman has revealed how she transformed her council flat into a super stylish home. Charlene Bonnici, a bargain hunter from the UK, confirmed that she was on a mission to give her pad a makeover without breaking the bank. 6 6 Now, thanks to second-hand buys and bargains from Dunelm and Temu, Charlene's home is incredibly impressive and super unique. Posting on social media, the young woman gave her followers a close-up look inside her home, leaving many totally stunned. Alongside clips of her council property, which has been kitted out with funky prints and glam accessories, Charlene explained: 'Living in a council flat doesn't mean giving up on beauty or style. It means finding creative ways to make every corner feel like home. 'This is about making the most of what we have, proving that warmth, personality, and pride don't depend on where you live, but how you live.' Since then, Charlene has opened up to Fabulous about her council flat and how she has been able to make it look so luxe whilst sticking to a tight budget. The DIY enthusiast told us: 'Most of my wall prints are from Temu - which are a couple of pounds each - and Desenio. 'A few still don't have frames yet, but I like to get them up on the wall anyway so I can admire them until I can afford the frames. 'My sofa is actually a broken second-hand IKEA one I have had for years. I'm actually saving for a new one….it's on a slope on one side. 'I've covered it with a Comfortly sofa cover that I saved up for ages to get.' Not only this, but Charlene also revealed the treasure chest place you need to search if you want to get your hands on purse-friendly interior finds. Trolls say council houses can't look nice but my stunning hallway will prove them wrong 'My coffee table was a total Facebook Martketplace bargain, (originally from John Lewis) I grabbed it for £30! ' Facebook Marketplace is such a treasure chest,' she added. As well as looking online for bargains, Charlene also loves shopping in the sales too. I very rarely buy things brand new unless I really love them and have saved up for them, so it's all been a bit of a mix-and-match process Charlene Bonnici She continued: 'My rug was from Dunelm for just £25 in the sale, which I'm still so happy about. 'I buy most of my things second-hand, and if I've got my eye on something special (like my Smeg kettle), I'll save for months until I can get it. How to do your council house up on the cheap Take inspiration from pricier shops and head to B&M, Home Bargains for interior decorations. Head to YouTube for easy to follow tutorials on how to decorate rather than paying for professionals. For a quick glow-up for your floors or anywhere with tiles, opt for stick-on vinyl to save on costs. A lick of paint does wonders to make a room feel brand-new. Switch out kitchen cupboard knobs for modern ones instead of buying brand-new cupboards 'I also love picking up little decor bits from Amazon, TK Maxx, Dunelm and H&M when they have sales.' Thrilled with her home's glam look, the content creator shared: 'I've collected everything so slowly over time - I very rarely buy things brand new unless I really love them and have saved up for them, so it's all been a bit of a mix-and-match process.' 6 6 DIY fans beam Charlene's TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ at_home_with_charl, has clearly impressed many, as users eagerly raced to the comments to praise her 'beautiful' home. Not only did people think it was 'cosy' and 'stylish,' but others were 'obsessed' with Charlene's glam decor. One person said: 'Lovely. Clean, tidy, organised and cosy.' Another added: 'Wow, this is actually stunning! What a beautiful home.' A third commented: 'I love your style.'

I'm a 29-year-old who spends £600 a month (including £375 on gym memberships) to look this ripped

As a 29-year-old woman, you'd think my biggest outgoings would be clothes, nights out, beauty treatments and my Octopus Energy bill. But those cost a snip compared to the £375.97 I spend on gym memberships each month. I don't get blow-dries or Botox (yet) and I rarely go clubbing. I'm more concerned about looking ripped while maintaining a healthy mind space, and I'm willing to spend a hefty chunk of my salary each year to get it.

How one entrepreneur turned a derelict basement into a stunning store using pre-loved materials and DIY YouTube videos

The household Kate Blower, creative director and founder of café and lifestyle store Resinn, her partner and head coffee-roaster Erik Ohrstrom, and their two children. The project When Ohrstrom was made redundant while Blower was heavily pregnant during lockdown, her first reaction was to panic about paying the mortgage. Then she realised the solution to their financial predicament could lie in the basement of their four-storey townhouse in Sunderland. The space, now pop-up coffee shop and lifestyle store Resinn, was originally uninhabitable and plagued by damp. There were no electrics or plumbing, and the layout was a maze of corridors formed by stud walls – remnants from when the property had been used as student accommodation. The renovation took six months. The cost ★ Labour (rewiring the basement, adding smoke alarms and outdoor lighting): £2,000 ★ Gas-supply connection, including a full boiler service: £400 ★ Wall excavation: £800 ★ Building materials: £1,000 ★ Furniture and coffee-station equipment: £1,700 TOTAL: £5,900 The first steps 'You don't need a pot of money to start a business; you just need an idea,' says Blower, in reference to the early days of Resinn. 'Erik is a trained barista, so he could make pour-over coffee using our kitchen kettle, and my sister is a baker who could contribute homemade cakes.' Blower had honed her design skills earlier through running an Airbnb business and from working at Urban Outfitters and H&M in Sweden for 15 years, before moving to Sunderland. 'We combined forces to get the business off the ground,' she says. Blower sourced a selection of marble bistro tables for £50 each from Facebook Marketplace and paired them with a few plain black tables from Ikea. Seating includes secondhand chapel chairs she bought from an Instagram seller in Manchester, sent via an online business that connects you with delivery companies that bid to transport goods.'I managed to get 21 chairs sent to me for £70,' she says. Shelves were stocked with affordable decorative items that complemented the coffee offering, such as mugs, small plates and breakfast bowls, which Blower found in charity shops. Then she invited the local community to come and experience the space. 'I thought it would last a few months, but people kept coming,' she says. 'I think a key selling point was that customers got to walk through part of our house to reach the basement. They loved seeing through the keyhole!' In fact, it's been such a success that Blower is launching Resinn's first standalone store and café on separate premises, due to open in Sunderland in October. The existing features Prior to the renovation, Blower had no idea that there was a bare-brick fireplace and chimney in the basement. 'It was boarded up with cement, breeze blocks and horrible woodchip wallpaper,' she says. She stripped the wallpaper and chipped away the cement to reveal the fireplace and make it a focal point. The basement's lime-plaster walls were left to shine, with Blower touching up any areas once damaged by damp with a coat of black paint. 'I left any original markings and shapes from earlier renovations on display,' she says. 'They tell the story of the space while creating a natural mural.' Blower repainted the floor, which had been hidden beneath carpet and covered with glue, using an eco-friendly sealant from 'It contains natural silicone, which prevents the floor from cracking,' she says. The original windows and high ceilings remain intact. The DIY hacks Most of the renovation budget was swallowed up by paying for the installation of electrics and plumbing, along with the removal of the stud walls from the property's student-accommodation days. 'We couldn't afford to hire tradesmen for everything, so we taught ourselves how to build items through research and YouTube tutorials,' says Blower, whose own DIY tutorials have since amassed a loyal following on Instagram. The new timber staircase, which leads down from the hallway to the basement, is a case in point. It was designed and sketched by Blower and built by herself and Ohrstrom. 'It's the bare bones of a staircase,' she says. 'There are no fancy bits or trimmings.' She coated it with Osmo Oil, which helps enhance the natural character of the wood while making it resistant to stains and scuffs. Minimalist twin-slot shelving, a wall-mounted system consisting of uprights with two vertical slots and brackets that slide into the slots, feature throughout. Blower fitted these with birch plywood shelves from B&Q ( that she stained black. 'It's so much cheaper than buying new shelves, and this way you can achieve the exact look you're after,' she says. The 'yarden' space As Resinn grew in popularity, Blower extended the space into the courtyard. 'It was originally a concrete slab, with one mud patch and an old waste pipe sticking out of the ground where there used to be an outhouse,' she says. Blower couldn't afford to dig it all up and re-landscape, so she poured gravel over the concrete and converted the mud patch into the main flowerbed. Blower built her own planters with reclaimed timber from a local reclamation yard, and filled them with evergreen plants for low maintenance. Plant pots from Home Bargains were grouped together for a container-garden effect and to create depth. 'It also means I can move them around whenever I fancy a change,' she says. Finally, Blower mounted ladders on walls to support climbing plants, and built a dining table using recycled fencing. 'Making a table may sound scary, but it's just a frame with a top and four legs,' she says. 'YouTube is a wealth of information. Just start small.'
