Without experience, working out where to begin with revamping both the inside and outside of your home can be tough and the task might seem to big to be achievable. However, there are a few easy steps that you can take in order to ensure that your home can exceed your expectations and charm every visitor.
So, if you have a big renovation project looming and you would like some help to make the process run as smoothly as possible, then read on!....
You see it every day, so you probably don't take much notice, but the first thing your guests will see is the exterior of your home. The curb appeal of your property has a big impact on its overall look and feel, people often make assumptions on the interior based on the exterior, so don’t make the mistake of not putting in any effort outside.
There are so many different things you can do to change and improve your homes exterior, beginning with the main wall space. Changing the colour of your home with a simple lick of paint (or 2) can transform your entire property into something completely different. Updating windows and doors to match one another both in their high quality and style is a great idea if you have the funds, as they are also seen from inside your property therefore have an aesthetic value on both sides. One of the first things I did when my ex left was to change the front door from a white UPVC to a modern composite door. Your front door is the entrance to your home. It keeps you safe, warm and creates character and charm too.
If you are lucky enough to have a front garden or perhaps just a small area of greenspace, taking the time to plant some flowers or shrubs can add a pop of colour and life to your properties exterior, and help to transform the feeling of just being a house into really being your home. Hanging baskets or containers on a fence can also make a difference.
Individual Interior Design
The interior design of your home is a chance for you to really express yourself and your own unique tastes. The clue is in the phrase ‘your home’ - it's you that lives there and you that has to be comfortable and relaxed in the surroundings, so put your own opinions before the recommendations of others. Go room by room, starting with the main social spaces like the kitchen as well as bathrooms and ensuites. Creative Design Kitchens offer some amazing examples of what you can achieve, and the same standard should continue throughout your property to establish the perfect foundations.
The finishing touches are often what ties the room together, so be sure to have an eye for detail when choosing decor items. Source prints of your favourite artworks and house them in vintage or reworked frames to hang around walls, and invest in some timeless pieces that add some flare and individuality.
Designing a unique home that charms every guest is not as hard as you might think, just get creative and be bold with your choices.
