Updating your home not only makes you feel good in your space but also adds monetary value
to your home. You may not be ready for a huge costly overhaul but updating is still possible, it
is all in the details. Focusing on updating the tiny details in your home will upgrade, not only the
look of your home, but also the value. Here are a few updating ideas you may like to try.
Swap out the cabinet hardware in your kitchen and bathrooms. Replacing your outdated
cabinet handles and knobs with new hardware will give your rooms an instant facelift. This
simple update will create a fresh, new, modern look.
Replace all light switch and electric outlet covers. Your old metallic or plastic covers can really
date your home. Replacing these with a more quality cover such as wood, ceramic or metal will
bring in a modern update.
Replace your unsightly vent covers. Something as small as a vent cover can bring down the
look of your whole room. Swap these out for brand new covers in a modern texture or fancy
design. Air return vents are often in a very visible area in your home. Investing in a decorative
air return cover will greatly add to a more modern look in your house.
Update the hardware on all the doors in your house. Replacing outdated doorknobs and hinges
will immediately modernize your home. Be sure to keep the same hardware on each door for a
streamlined look.
Updating your home does not always have to involve a huge, costly renovation. Often it is the
small things that refine and finish a space. Paying attention to all the little details in your home,
and updating them, will have a quiet, but noticeable impact in updating and modernizing your
home.
