Make the Most of This Winter - 4 Interior Project Ideas to Keep You Busy!

Posted Nov 30, 2014

The colder months of winter hold a fun opportunity for taking on some of those interior painting and staining projects that are hard to get to during the summer. After all, this is the season when you find yourself face-to-face with them the most!

With this in mind, we’ve put together a few ideas for manageable projects that add a lot of value to your interior styling.

Fun, Cold-Weather Projects

• Interior painting – You can start small by tackling an accent wall, or maybe painting a decorative piece of furniture, but the sky’s the limit! Make your project as large or small as you’d like. If you are worried about fumes, ask your paint supplier or professional interior painter about using low-VOC paint. This is an environmentally friendly, low-odor option.
• Refinish your doors – Take a close look. Do you see the dings, marks, and smudges? Interior doors count as high-traffic areas in your home, being pushed, banged, and maybe even occasionally slammed open and shut. Either painting or staining them will make an incredible difference, and you can work at your own pace.
• Install a backsplash – This is an amazing, budget-friendly way to make a huge stylistic change in your kitchen. And, with the hundreds of options out there, you can create just the look you have in mind. If you aren’t sure where to start, take a look at other kitchen backsplash designs, and then get to work on choosing your own.
• Organization – Do you have a closet that you are just a little afraid to even touch? Invest in some plastic storage containers, brew a fresh cup of coffee (or maybe a full pot), and start working during your next free afternoon. You’ll feel great, and who knows? You might discover that you have more space than you think you do!
