There’s so much buzz and excitement at the start of a new year, so why not utilise these feelings and get busy with giving your home a makeover. It doesn’t have to be anything too drastic, but little update to your furniture and changes to your home interior set-up can make all the difference to your quality of life and overall feeling of positivity.
Marvellous Mattresses
Believe it or not, you’ll spend between 20-25 years in bed over a lifetime. It’s where we relax, rest and recuperate from the day’s activities, so it’s worth reviewing your bedroom set up in order to maximise your downtime and ensure you’re getting a good night’s sleep, every night.
A great place to start is looking at your mattress. Many of us suffer from restless sleep, bad backs and aching joints, which can affect how we feel and function. This could be down to the mattress you’re sleeping on, as a low quality or old mattress may not give the support your body needs to properly rest, thus affecting your sleep. Investing in a new quality mattress is the perfect place to start your New Year Makeover, as you’ll benefit from improved sleep and comfort for years to come.
Liven up your Living Room
Another room where you’re likely to spend a lot of time relaxing and socialising is your living room. With daily use it can soon start to look a little tired and dated with saggy sofas, lifeless cushions and stained carpets. However, giving it a makeover will give it whole new lease of life.
A new sofa suite will instantly transform the room, whilst smaller changes such as new cushions, throws, rugs, curtains and even pictures can do wonders for livening the room up again and creating an inviting place to sit and unwind.
Delightful Dinners
If you regularly sit down to a family dinner or entertain guests then you may want to look at updating your dining room table and chairs. Scratches, stains and general wear and tear can easily become apparent, but an updated dining room table and chairs can make all the difference to your dining experience. A great way to find tips to make the most out of your home is on product reviews, DIY tips and ideas for the home site Unclutterer.
If you want a completely new look, why not invest in a new dining room set all together. Although, you don’t necessarily need to go that far, as recovering existing dining chairs or applying a lick of paint or varnish to wooden chairs and tables is a fabulous and cost-effective way to up-cycle existing furniture and add a new slant on your interior design.
Blissful Bathrooms
Another key area of your home is the bathroom, which may be in need of attention. Whilst a complete remodel might be your first priority, there are plenty of other ways you can update your bathroom with little expense. Why not consider changing your colour scheme to brighten up the room, a new bathroom cabinet, brightly coloured towels and accessories, as well as plants are a simple way to give your bathroom a little makeover without the inconvenience of a complete renovation.
Whatever your focus for your New Year Makeover, with 2016 already underway, now is the time to take action. Whether you create an inner sanctuary in your bedroom with a new bed and mattress from Booth’s Furniture, or give your lounge a new lease of life with updated soft furnishings and a fresh colour scheme, it will all go towards creating a positive start for the year ahead. With a new feel in your home, you’ll feel positive and refreshed yourself and ready to tackle everything the year ahead has in store.
