Time To Update Your Home: Five Fresh Ideas To Consider

**In Collaboration** 

When it comes to our homes they can often be our pride and joy, but renovations and decorating each room can be quite costly. Meaning sometimes you need to focus on one project at a time. However, there are things that you can do to freshen up your home, some big jobs, some small, but they all can make a big difference. Here are some of the ideas that you could consider.

Getting more light into your home

Some homes can often feel dark and small, even when they aren’t, and that can be due to a lack of natural light. So if you think this is a problem for you then you may want to think about ways you can get more light into your home. Installing things like bifold doors in living spaces or off kitchens can be a great investment. However, focusing on the windows, opening up the blinds and making more use of what you have can be equally as successful.

Flooring can be a key feature

The flooring covers a huge surface area, so making this one change in a room can dramatically change how it looks and feels. Going from wood flooring to carpet can make a space feel cosy. Or going from carpet to a wooden floor or a tile could help to modernise the interior design. Flooring can still be an expensive job, but it is also seen as an investment.

Upgrade a big ticket room 

On to one of the more pricier ideas which happens to be focusing on one of the big ticket rooms. These are the rooms in your home that not only cost a lot to renovate, but they can also add the most value to your home. The rooms include a bathroom renovation and upgrading the kitchen. They can be lengthy projects as well as costly, but they can make such a difference to your home.

Concentrate on the outside space

Sometimes renovations and making changes in your home isn’t always about what happens inside of it. Many people love to be outside, especially during the warmer months of the year. Taking time to improve the gardens at the front and the rear of the property can make a massive difference to your homes kerb appeal. You could do things such as mow lawns, clean up patio and decking areas. Plant some new flowers and clean up the windows or driveway that you have.

Go clutter free 

Finally, it may be time to think about going clutter free in your home. Surprisingly, this can make a massive difference to how your home looks on the inside. Take time out to declutter a room, including the drawers and cupboards where a lot of clutter can live. You will notice a big difference to not only the look of your home but also how it feels. A tidy house gives you a tidy mind.

Let’s hope that these tips help you when it comes to updating your home and making some fresh changes.
