My DIY panelling trick only cost me a fiver & it insulates the walls for winter too – you can find everything on Amazon

A SAVVY mum has turned her hallway from drab to fab, all whilst on a budget.

So if the cost of living crisis has made your purse feel tighter than ever before, but you’re eager to give your pad a glow up, fear not, you’ve come to the right place.

Jaymi Leanne Wall, a mother from the UK, explained how she used bargain buys from Amazon to give her hallway a total transformation.

Thrilled with her hallway’s overhaul, Jaymi took to social media to share a before and after look, leaving many open-mouthed. 

Posting on , a private Facebook group with 2.2 million members, Jaymi shared snaps of her beautiful hallway and explained that she tried out the viral draught excluder tape hack, which was also done recently by DIY enthusiast Laura Morrall.

Jaymi confirmed that she ordered two types of tape, both of which you can get from Amazon.

She nabbed the draught excluder tape, which you can buy for just £4.99, and the self-adhesive foam tape, which is only £5.94, to create her very own panelled display. 

Alongside pictures of her DIY glow up, Jaymi confirmed: “I bought both tapes from Amazon.

"I ordered two rolls of each.” 

Not only did she use cheap tape, but she also used paint that you can order from Amazon for just £19.33, as she added: “The colour I used is Soothing Clay by Johnson’s.” 

Thanks to a few cheap buys, Jaymi was able to add style to her once very plain hallway.

Not only is it now super chic and trendy, but thanks to the draught excluder tape, which works to keep the cold out, it will help her home to stay warm and cosy in the winter too, without needing to constantly turn on the central heating. 

Social media users were left stunned by Jaymi’s DIY project and many flocked to the comments to express this.

One person said: “Looks amazing, love it.” 

This is so impressive!

Another added: “Love it.” 

A third commented: “This is so impressive!” 

Not only were DIY fans impressed, but many were inspired to give it a go too, as one woman beamed: “I’m so doing this.” 

Meanwhile, one person wrote: “I don't see the obsession with panelling…this 'hack' is bizarre to me.”

But to this, Jaymi clapped back and penned: “I love the panelling look, not obsessed but better than my muddy white wall from living in a house full of boys, footballs and muddy boots.” 

And when asked: “How did you do the stairs?”, Jaymi candidly replied and admitted: “With a lot of stress and a tape measure lol.”
