Interior
You can make your home a lot more comfortable and functional with some simple updates to your interior. Many of these can be done in a single weekend. Want to declutter? Try some closet and shelf organizers or some cabinet slideouts. Got the blahs? Try a new kitchen backsplash, a cabinet facelift, or some track lighting. And there’s nothing like a coat of fresh paint to transform your living space.
Landscaping
A lush, fragrant garden can transform even the most ho-hum home into a verdant paradise. When it comes to first impressions, landscaping makes all the difference. With a bit of planning, you can plant seedlings in the early spring and enjoy a festive array of blooms by summer. In addition, adding some calming water features is a lot less expensive than you might think.
Exterior
Want to boost your curb appeal and make your home more welcoming in one fell swoop? A little attention to your home’s exterior can go a long way. Simple things like window shutters, a new porch light, and a brightly-painted front door can do wonders. You can also save big by keeping your walkways, siding, roof, and gutters in good repair.
