Love Your Home Week - Day 5

Love Your Home Week comes to a close with one last small project idea with big results:

Replace Your Bedding

While a decent bedding set can be costly, if it's the only thing you do in your master or guest bedroom to change the overall look, it is money well spent! This time of year home stores often have promotions, so if it's not in the budget, watch for the sales. Our bedrooms are often neglected as a room that we "only sleep in" or as a room that "no one really sees", but perhaps it's time to finally spoil the room that you spend approximately a third of your day in. When updating your bedding, be sure to splurge on new pillows as well. These should be replaced at the very least annually.

Love Your Home Week - Day 4

Love Your Home Week continues with more small project ideas with big results:

Replace Out-dated Hardware

Replace your hardware on cupboards in your home, whether it’s your kitchen cabinets, your bathroom cabinets, or your dresser. Updated pulls and handles can make a world of difference. If you're selling your home, updated pulls will instantly increase your home's value, for a minimal investment.
