It's a proven fact that embarking on a plan before surging through a home decorating plan results to more efficient tasks and better results.
Getting armed and ready to improve your home is not at all difficult, what with all the resources available - books, magazines, internet, as well as friends and relatives who could say "been there, done that."
One vital information to keep in mind is TTT - Things Take Time. This means that while you're after an improved home, it will not happen just like that. No pain, no gain, right? Thus, you have to go through the hassles of having your home renovated.
Remember that your house will look like a complete mess before it transforms into a swan. Therefore, it is advisable to go slow. Not exactly with the tasks but in renovating in general - decorate one room at a time. In doing so
- It won't be a burden managing your household. - Not all rooms will become unavailable at once, so you will be left with spaces where you can keep your displaced objects or where you can hang out. - You won't be too stressed out, thinking incessantly when the renovation will end. By doing one room at a time, every few weeks or so, you'll get instant results. - It's easier on the pocket. You can withhold any more work in case the budget runs short, and resume when finances get better.
When engaging professional workers such as painters, carpenters or electricians, try to have them do all their work within a specified time period. You'll have to do more upfront preparation and deal with an intense time of disruption, but you'll also save a lot of money. Check your potential contractor's credentials thoroughly before hiring. If you don't feel right about the contract, don't hire that person or firm. There are plenty of candidates available.
If you have kids, it's important to save a room where they can still play and have fun. With a renovation work, most areas will be restricted, so the kids can become bored and anxious. When they are, it spells out to tantrums! So have a room where you can relax and have a good time as family. Utilize fun decors like colorful area rugs, toys and games, and maybe a television.
In addition, give the family some fun and yourself a break during redecorating or remodeling time by using colorful paper plates and cups for meals. Plain white paper goods on which the children have drawn pictures with non-toxic markers add an element of family contribution and creativity.
It goes without saying that safety must be a priority, especially if you have little kids in the house. Make sure everyone knows that the "work area" is an off limits zone.
