There is nothing better than giving your home a bit of a makeover and doing some much needed home improvements so you can enjoy your home a lot more and be proud of the space you have made and designed for yourself. Sometimes you can just make small changes and they can make such a difference but sometimes the big changes need to be done. Everything will need replacing and updating at one point or another.
An effective yet easy and simple way to give your house a fresh feel is to paint the wood with a fresh coat of gloss. You can give it a fresh coat in whatever color you want, white, black or perhaps just re-staining the wood. It will give a new feel and make everything look brand new. It also helps it look a bit brighter and in turn more inviting. So by doing this job which doesn't take much time you are giving the space a much better and fresher look.
You can also update your home in a whole new way from the outside. Updating something as simple as the windows can give your home a whole new look from the outside. When you change the window, you can change the colour, design and make your home look brand new. It can also be a great aspect to reducing bills by keeping more heat in and helping the home be more insulated. It can change the home from looking modern to country with the help of adding some lines across the window panes and changing from white windows to a wood effect.
The simple act of adding some flowers to a room really adds a bit of life and color wherever you put them. This can instantly make your room look and feel different. You can choose real or artificial but they will always make the room seem more homely. When you have flowers that colors complement the colors and decor of the room as well it can really bring the room together and be a lot more aesthetically pleasing. An added bonus of choosing real flowers if you will also get a lovely scent when you go past them so pop them in prime locations like by the front door, at the top of the stairs, or on the dining table.
Your living room or bedroom areas are a great choice to add a pop of colour. One of the great ways to make it stand out is by adding a feature wall. This is a wall that stands out from the rest. It may be a colour statement design maker and it is a quick and easy way to liven up space. This can be whatever your fancy, whether it is a bold color, a patterned wallpaper, or simply exposed brick. They can help to make your room look updated and new even though you have only changed one wall. It can really make a room stand out by having one wall quite different to the others. So when there is a more basic and muted color on the walls some colour like a red or green can really make a difference. It helps to me give it a focal point in the design. It is a great way to show off your personality through your decorating and your home.
One really quick and easy way which doesn’t cost anything to make your home look a lot better is to reduce clutter. Clutter can make the home look really messy and make spaces look smaller than they are. It doesn’t have to be a mammoth task; you can tackle it one room at a time and spread it over a long period of time rather than doing it all in one go if you haven’t got the time or energy to focus on it then. It is something to get the whole family involved with. So if your kids' rooms are quite cluttered they can do that as well and then help you with communal rooms like the living room and the dining room. Once you’ve got all the clutter that you don’t want anymore you can either give it to friends and family who need it or want it and if you have stuff left you can give it to charity for a worthy cause. Some bits may not be in good condition all be able to be sold or given away so those will just need to be thrown away.
Storage is another key thing that can help a house look fresh and well kept without really doing much of anything. It is really just all about organising. Make sure everything has its place and is stored in the best and most efficient way. You can pretty much get organisers for everything now. The small things like toilet roll and cotton pads to the big things rubbish bins and appliances. One of the best things to make sure you have adequate storage for is children’s toys. They can very quickly take over a space and take away its charm. You can even get storage which is incorporated into other items. For example, you can get great storage space under a bed. The space is all going to waste so why not use it for storing old toys, out of season clothes or things you don’t use very often like holiday decorations.
Lastly a great way to update the home and make it look new and fresh is to keep it nice and tidy and clean. Life gets in the way and things can start to slip especially with a big family. So if you are struggling lay the children pocket money to help or look at hiring some help.
