DIY flooring ideas come in so many different styles and colors. Gone are the days of plan ol' carpet, tile or wood flooring. We're showing off ideas such as painted concrete, painted tiles and wood floors and a new trend called Floor Pops. If you're ready for a new look for your toes to tread on, look no farther.

DIY Flooring Ideas

Laying new flooring doesn't have to break the bank. We know because recently we decided to paint over tile floors and it turned out amazing! When we were planning to paint our tile we discovered other fabulous budget-friendly ideas for you.

If you thought you would have to hire someone to come in and redo your flooring, we hope that you will be inspired by these DIY flooring ideas and feel as though you can give your home the new look you've been hoping for.

DIY FLOORING IDEAS

You don't have to have a special talent or trade to be able to change the look of the flooring in your home. Our friends have some great and simple DIY flooring ideas that you are just going to love.

Let's jump in and show you.

FLOOR POPS IN A FARMHOUSE KITCHEN

The idea of laying tile might terrify you, but that's why we want to show you what Floor Pops. It's a peel and stick vinyl floor tile. No grout or special tools required!

Our friend Ashley, from Fontaine Farmhouse, choose the Altair style of Floor Pops for her farmhouse kitchen and it looks amazing!

PEEL & STICK TILE IN A KITCHEN

Sheila, over at Little Rustic Dream, also went with the Floor Pops peel and stick tile for her kitchen DIY floor project.

She chose the Gothic pattern and it makes such a lovely statement in her kitchen.

PAINTED CORK FLOORING

If you'd like a great step by step tutorial on painting cork flooring, Brittany, from White Farmhouse, provides you just that on her Instagram page and she has a painted floors post on her website too that goes into more detail.

Brittany walks you through priming, paint color selection, type of paint she used and so much more.

The project turned out gorgeous!

BUFFALO CHECK PAINTED PATTERN ON TILE

Sherry, at Savvy Apron, writes a post on her blog all about how she painted buffalo on her laundry room floor.

This is an inexpensive solution to creating a new look without having to tear up tile.

PAINTED STENCIL TILE FLOORING IN A LAUNDRY ROOM

Something she does differently is painting her tile black and then the stenciling in white.

STENCILED OUTDOOR TILES

This outdoor stenciled tile project that Ashley, over at Arrows & Bows, did is gorgeous.

PAINTED STRIPED CONCRETE PORCH

Lolly Jane shows this inviting porch in their blog post and how they went about painting it.

It requires a little elbow grease to make sure you are starting with a clean surface, but after that, painting a concrete porch looks like a breeze.

PAINTED GINGHAM PATTERN ON A CONCRETE PORCH

This front porch with a painted gingham pattern on concrete turned out lovely.

Gwyneth, from House Wife Home Show, pulled off a sweet transformation that is welcoming to anyone that steps onto her porch.

FRONT PORCH PAINTED STEPS

You might recognize that front door and striking wreath that we featured in our post about farmhouse spring wreath ideas.

This is the home of our friend Kristi, from The Pickled Rose.

She pulled off this brilliant look on her front steps by simply painting the concrete black and adding a couple of white stripes.

STENCILING BRICK PATTERN ON CONCRETE PATIO
