Full kitchen remodel
Notes:
- Let’s be honest: Most of us spend the bulk of our time at home in the kitchen. Because of this, it’s a great idea to remodel your kitchen first, as it’s the most expensive, time-consuming, and value-adding remodel you can tackle.
- Start by thinking about your floors. Do they need to be replaced? What about your appliances? Cabinets can be the most expensive part of remodeling a kitchen; if you want to change the look but save a bit of money, consider painting them instead of replacing them.
- Putting in the effort to remodel your kitchen will pay off in the long run as well. This can potentially add the most value to your home in case you choose to sell in the future.
- Make sure to consider lighting as noted from the photo above: [ scroll back up ]
- make sure your kitchen has plenty of lighting – preferably natural lighting with large windows
- other lighting sources include recessed, pendant, under-cabinet, and some spot light to accentuate a kitchen area
- allow room for a sit-up counter – a nice area for breakfast and kitchen conversation
- also note how the appliances are all tucked in – only their front face is exposed

Bathroom remodels
Notes:
- A surprisingly easy remodel, re-doing bathrooms can add a ton of value to your home. Sinks and vanities can be easily replaced; a new faucet can add a lot of design value and character to the space as well. A new, clean toilet can enhance the visual appeal too.
- Consider changing old vinyl floors for trendy hardwood or laminate flooring. In addition, yellowing bathtubs can be easily remedied by bathtub overlays.
- Creating a bathroom oasis from the photo above: [ scroll back up ]
- a major bath remodel should be for your joy instead of for ROI
- for example, installing a whirlpool hot tub for two or more people may be just the thing you need to create a bathroom oasis
- and why not add an entertainment section for those bath relaxing moments
- note the floating vanity – a popular trend in bath remodeling

Painting
Notes:
- If you want to quickly change the look and feel of your home, painting the whole house is a worthwhile project. Painting can drastically change the way your whole house feels; after all, color can have a dramatic effect on your emotions.
- If you don’t have the time or means to paint your entire house, just choose one or two rooms at a time. Even switching up the color of the walls in your living room will make a drastic change.
- Some painting ideas from the photo above: [ scroll back up ]
- the paint style illustrated above is sometimes referred to as French or color wash – a paint style that is quite popular
- the style uses two colors and “washes” them together using sponges and other painting tools
- something to consider for a living room or other room where you sit and relax
- all you will need is comfortable furniture and an abstract wall art that compliments the wash technique.
