Now that Spring has officially sprung, you may be feeling extra inspired to roll up your sleeves and get some hard work done around the house. It’s time to refresh and renew your living space. So let’s take advantage of the warmer weather and longer days and start planning out your 2021 home improvement plans.
Whether you’re taking on a personal project or trying to increase a listing’s value, we have curated a list of home improvement ideas that are guaranteed to refresh a space just in time for Spring!
- Transform your backyard with a freshly stained deck. Whether you want to refresh the old stain or change the color altogether, a new coat will completely revive your outdoor hang space.
- Install a new mailbox. Or spruce up the current one with fresh paint and some colorful flowers around the base. Regardless of what you choose to do, your mailbox is a visitor’s first impression of your home, so make it a good one!
- Get creative and fix up your kitchen. It doesn’t need to be totally expensive or completely redone. You can replace outdated knobs, swap out your backsplash for something modern or replace appliances with eco-friendly options.
- Upgrade your garden. Springtime blooms are some of our very favorites—tulips, daisies, daffodils and pansies make for the perfect exterior upgrade. But you can also get creative with a small fruit and veggie garden in the backyard.
- Update your address display. This is an easy yet effective way to upgrade your home’s exterior. A fresh set of numbers displayed in a unique or colorful way is sure to refresh your doorway. Think outside the box! (But make sure your HOA is okay with it!)
- Refresh the look of your living room. This could mean a colorful area rug, an assortment of beautiful houseplants, new throw pillows or updated family photos hung behind your couch. Take to Pinterest for some inspiration, and then get decorating.
