Breathe New Life Into Your Home with These Tips

3/18/2022

 
​
People all across the country have been spending more time at home. And many
professionals are  now telecommuting indefinitely, making extra time at home even more
prevalent.

If this sounds familiar, you’ve likely noticed that your home could use a bit of a reboot. While
not everyone has the budget for a full-kitchen remodel or bump out, there are still plenty of
things you can do to give your home a refresh.

Repaint Your Walls
One of the fastest and most cost-effective ways to dramatically update the look of a room is
with paint. If you want to make your spaces look fresher, adding a new coat of paint can do
the trick. Over time, paint can fade, and walls get dingy. With a fresh coat, you restore the
original color.

If you want something more dramatic, go with a completely new color scheme. Consider
what colors bring you joy, and then find hues that fit your interiors. Just consider doing a test
before you fully commit. That way, you can make sure you actually enjoy the color before
you cover your walls.

You could DIY this yourself, but for a professional finish that looks amazing, your best bet is
to work with pros. The experts at Mesa Painting Pros can help you achieve the look you
want with color that pops. Reach out today to find out more.

Think About the Air
If the air in your home seems stale, finding ways to freshen it up can make a big difference.
Start by replacing any air filters. Look for HEPA filters whenever possible, as they are
incredibly effective at removing airborne pollutants and allergens. Otherwise, focus on
finding filters with with high MERV ratings, as they a better job than those with lower ones.
Adding plants can also be a smart move. While their impact on air quality might only be
minimal, every little bit can help. Plus, they add life and greenery to your space, which can
offer an extra mood boost.

Introduce Scent
Aromatherapy has  long been used to alter a person’s mood. Some scents are uplifting and
energizing, while others are calming or stress-reducing.

If you want to change the feel of your space without a major update, adding scent is a great
option. Oil diffusers or wax melt warmers are both approaches that don’t require open
flames, so consider starting there.

Separate Work from Home
If you’re working from home, creating some separation is a good idea. By carving out a
dedicated workspace that isn’t a part of your main living areas or bedroom, it’s easier to
completely disconnect when the workday is done.
While a separate home office may be ideal, you can go in other directions. Converting a
closet or pantry could work, as well as using an armoire desk that you can close. You could
also add a small outbuilding in your yard, effectively updating a shed to work as an office
instead.

You may even want to invest in new pieces to make your office feel more comfortable. For
example, sitting all day isn’t ideal, so consider investing in an adjustable-height desk and a
new ergonomic chair.
​
Factor in Your Property Value
Americans spent around $420 billion on home improvements in 2020. While a major
investment isn’t a big deal if it’s an update you’ll enjoy and staying in your home long-term is
your goal, that isn’t always the case if you may sell soon.

Some remodeling projects give you better ROI than others. If you choose the wrong ones
and list soon, you might find yourself losing money when you ultimately sell the property.
As you start planning for various home improvements, make sure you factor in how they
impact your property value, especially if you’re thinking about selling in the near future.
Additionally, pay attention to what buyers want, allowing you to focus on projects that’ll
generate more interest.

Finally, take before and after pictures and keep your receipts. That way, you’ll have a
complete record of any changes you make.
