In today’s super busy world, who has the time for home improvement projects? Everyone wants their home to look up to date and incredible, but we often run out of ideas. Here are a few weekend home improvement projects to consider.
Weekend Home Improvement Projects
In this article, we’ll discuss various simple home improvement projects you can complete over a weekend. The post includes everything from framing bathroom windows to updating interior doors and renovating your closet.
Spray Paint Old Hardware
This is one of the fastest, cheapest and easiest ways to update the look of your home. If you bought your home in the early 2000s, chances are it has plenty of gold-colored hardware and fixtures. New construction homes, on the other hand, are now using a lot more nickel-colored, bronze and faded hardware.
Frame Bathroom Mirrors
If your bathroom mirror is basic, held to the wall by some glue and a couple of screws, then you can update it by adding a frame. Framing is an easy and inexpensive way to update your bathroom and give the mirror a better look.
Create an Entryway Mudroom
Mudrooms are quite popular these days. Creating a mudroom in your doorway is a good way to add some aesthetic appeal to your home’s interior. You can achieve this by adding some paint, flooring, molding and hooks to an empty wall.
Improve Your Laundry Room
Laundry rooms have long been overlooked when it comes to décor, but this is changing. The trick here is to create a welcoming, warm space. Consider storing essentials such as fabric softener and detergent in decorative glass dispensers, replacing wire shelving with wooden shelving and adding a folding table.
Update Interior Doors
Homes built in the 1990s are likely to have plain, flat, hollow-core doors. If replacing every interior door is out of reach, you can create the illusion of updated doors using paint and trim.
Make Your Closet Amazing
Renovating your closet is a great way to add some visual appeal to your interior. All it takes are a few tricks and a little reorganization to update your closets. Simply add new lighting, wallpaper or paint. You can also add a chandelier. You can even make all of these changes into your bedroom if you want to redesign it.
Turn a Boring Full-Length Mirror into a Work of Art
We all have at least one of those cheap full-length mirrors. They’re often inside closet doors and tend to be more functional than attractive. If you’re giving your closet a makeover, don’t forget the full-length mirrors as well.
Make a Succulent Terrarium
Plants will always give your home a breath of fresh air. Real plants can be difficult to maintain while fake plants can look tacky. Succulents, on the other hand, don’t require much water or attention as they’re native desert plants. Large glass bowls, such as floating candle bowls or fish bowls, are ideal for creating a tiny biodome for several succulents.
Bottom Line
These simple weekend home improvement projects will update your home and give it a new improved look. Compare various options, look at the trends and take your time to evaluate which project works well for your home. If you’re not sure which project will have the most significant impact, consider seeking professional advice.
