The holiday season is almost upon us, and it’s time to get the decorations out to brighten up your home. In the same spirit, you should consider giving your home a facelift if required. The global Covid-19 pandemic has made us spend more time at home than we usually do. In that time, you may have noticed things that needed to be changed or replaced. You may also have realized how drab some of your fittings and furnishings can become. It is time for that long-overdue facelift, but it does come with its own musings such as cost. Here are four areas to consider when giving your home a facelift.

The Living Room

This is the one place that everyone in the house has a place in, making it more or less the home’s centerpiece. It speaks to your tastes and can be very expressive of your personality. Therefore, choose themes that reflect how you want your home to feel. If your home has big windows, make use of the natural light, and get some plants or wall art to brighten up your space.

You can also spice up the look of your living room with some vintage looking wooden elements such as a bookcase, coffee table, or a shelf that could serve a dual purpose. This will give your living room a rustic feel. Also, get a nice warm rug for your living room floor to add some color. Ensure the longevity of your rug by using professional carpet cleaners to wash and relive your rug when required. You will also need to create space by getting rid of things that you no longer have any use for.

The Bedroom

A bedroom is a place of solitude and for pensive thoughts after a long day. It is one place that your privacy is secure, and you can be as expressive as you want there. There’s no limit to what you can do; your imagination can run wild. Once again, the first thing to do is to declutter by getting rid of stuff you no longer need. This will create space and give you an idea of what it could look like when done. Now get your creative juices flowing and express yourself.

Get a set of new comforters just because you can and bring a fresh look to the bed. If you are handy and prefer the DIY way, you could transform your headboard with some fabric that matches the color theme you want for your bedroom. Another thing to consider upgrading in the bedroom is the lighting. Make sure there is ample lighting in the bedroom whether you are using it to read late at night or to set the mood when you have your partner over. Several kinds of lighting will suit these purposes.

The Kitchen

The kitchen can be considered one of the liveliest places in the home; it is where meals are prepared, and the family comes together to start or end the day. Whether you decide to make a significant upgrade by re-doing from the basics or just spicing it up using colors or new equipment – you can give your kitchen a more homely feel.

Also, the kitchen is one of the areas that add value to your home in the real estate sector. This means that a modern and well-stocked kitchen can significantly increase the resale value of a house. So consider switching up the look of your kitchen by moving things around. Ensure that heavy stuff such as the refrigerator, cooker, dishwasher, and cabinets are appropriately placed to ensure the maximum use of space.

The Exterior

This is one place people notice first about your home, and it sets a precedence for what they should expect on the inside. It, therefore, makes sense to give your exterior a facelift, especially with the holiday season upon us. You may start with making preparations for Christmas but also make it a point to look out for other ways to improve the aesthetic of your exterior. You could plant a flower garden or construct a lawn, or even make time to prune some of the vegetation to give it a more homely look. You can also clean the windows or paint the building to achieve the same thing.

Giving your house a facelift doesn’t have to be expensive, and all you need is a good imagination and a good eye. This season is a perfect time to do just that. So do not put off turning your house into a lovely abode.
