Last week, we discussed several home renovation and cleanup projects to tackle during quarantine. This week, we have a few additional ideas to keep you busy during this bizarre time in the world. Again, keep in mind that a lot of these projects can generate a large amount of construction debris requiring the need of a construction dumpster rental to get rid of it.
Furniture Remodeling
Many of us have pieces of furniture we’ve been saving to remodel whenever we run into spare time. This is a great time to refurbish that old armoire or that set of shelves you got at a garage sale last year. Remodeling furniture can be a great way to add storage to a room or add a little extra flare to an area as well.
Painting/Installing Wallpaper
Most of us have a room or two we have been meaning to paint in but just haven’t gotten around to. Now is the perfect time to check out paint swatches, test some colors, and get painting. Your kids will certainly appreciate a redecorated bedroom, and that spare bathroom will look great in that taupe paint you’ve been considering. If you aren’t wild about painting, consider wallpaper. Many brands offer easy install/removal wallpaper, so if you find that you have outgrown a wallpaper, it can be easily taken down without damaging the wall beneath.
Power Washing Driveway or Siding
Most homeowners have a power washing project or two that they’ve put off for a while – sidewalks, siding, driveway, pool area, among other areas. This is an excellent time to address this and get your home in tip-top shape for the year.
Building a Raised Bed for a Garden
A wonderful way to get outside is by building a raised bed for a garden. It’s very simple and the materials can be purchased for minimal cost at a hardware store. Once you’ve built your raised bed, you can plant a garden to supply your household with fresh fruits and vegetables throughout the spring and summer. It doesn’t get much better than that!
Updating Light Fixtures
Another great way to update your home inexpensively is by upgrading your light fixtures. There are many options at your local hardware store. This is also another easy way to modernize your home and lighting, something especially valuable if you may be looking to sell in the near future too.
