A lot of homes today are from another era or, if built more recently, are difficult to distinguish from the houses around them. Whether it’s the era or the ordinariness of your home, you might feel like your home needs a change, and ASAP! But the dated or cookie-cutter nature of your home may feel impossible to overcome. The good news is, it’s not.
Freshen Up the Exterior
A little can go a long way when it comes to your home. Giving your shutters and front door a fresh coat of paint in a charming color can greatly improve your home’s curb appeal. And don’t forget about the landscaping. Simply tidying up stray limbs and trimming an overgrown bush can freshen up an area. Between painting and making sure your yard is well-cared for and the landscaping is neat, you’ll be surprised just how good your home can look.
If you are willing to take on a larger project, painting the exterior of your home may be the path to take to give it the update it needs. To add character, a change you might consider is replacing a few windows with uniquely shaped accent windows. These changes can give the exterior of your home the update and charm you feel it is lacking.
Liven Up the Interior
Just as with the outside, painting inside can give your home a fresh look that brings it up-to-date or gives it the individuality you’re craving. A coat of paint in the foyer and living room in a unique or bold color are great options. Or perhaps your living room needs a more subdued color. In that case, your foyer can get a fun wallpaper that you love. Between paint and wallpaper, there are countless ways to bring your home into the current era and give it character.
One other simple yet creative way to update a home is to change the light fixtures. There are a number of styles, shapes, finishes, and even bulbs to choose from. There are fun and funky fixtures or sleek and sophisticated ones. There are lots of options for every style. Light fixtures can also be used to freshen up the exterior as well. So, if you get the bright idea to make some changes to your home, light fixtures offer a lot of possibilities.
Nothing is permanent when it comes to a house, so don’t let the current state of the interior or exterior keep you from imagining what it could be. Be creative with your choices and don’t be afraid to think outside the box, and you’ll be sure to make your home stand out on the block.
