I guess you could say I've been involved in-home improvement projects quite often in my life. At this very minute my husband is finishing the drywall in our living room, and will soon be painting it. While it's great to see the finished product, the process can be very messy.
If your plans for your home involve significant renovations or remodeling, it is typically best to hire an architect or professional designer. If you do it yourself, you may not have the right plans, technically, and fail. Professionals have the skills necessary to develop smart plans that conform to area building codes.
If you put new cabinets in your home, your kitchen will glow with beauty and style. New cabinets show all of your family and friends that your kitchen is a professional place for cooking and entertainment. You can find cabinets in light wood stains and dark wood stains, giving you the ability to personalize your kitchen to your specific tastes.
Install radiant heat under your new tile floors. There are kits available for the do-it-yourself homeowner, and it's really not rocket science. It will make a dramatic difference in the "wow" factor of your home both to guests and to potential buyers. Invite them to take their shoes off and feel the heat!
If you are taking on your project alone, consider hiring a interior designer for a consultation. An hour with a professional can help clarify what you want to do and help steer you away from those projects that sound good in your head but would be a nightmare to complete.
It's hard to overstate the impact that a really well-made front door can have. Your guests will be seeing your door whenever they enter and leave your home. Also, if you have one that is old or damaged, heat may be escaping from it. Locks or door frames that are in poor condition can significantly decrease your sense of security.
Window Blinds
Adding window blinds to your windows is a great way to accomplish a sense of privacy. Many people don't use curtains or blinds because they want to let in natural lighting. However, don't forget that you can see outside, but whoever is outside, can also see inside. Window blinds can add to your privacy and come in different styles to choose from. You don't have to go with the cheap plastic factory blinds. You can find some really nice wooden or bamboo shades, that do the job, just as well.
Few things are more distracting than the sight of faded, torn blinds and window treatments. New blinds can make a world of difference in your room. Often the sun will fade blinds and curtains. Sometimes pets, children and/or time can wreak havoc. New blinds are relatively inexpensive and easy to install, and you will be surprised how much of a positive impact they make.
We have a home which is over 100 years old and updating it has been an ongoing process over the past five years. We have a new dining room, two new bathrooms and half of a new kitchen. Recently, my husband installed four new windows and put new siding on half of the house. I can't wait for the whole thing to be done!
