You have probably already put together a list of things you want to do in 2021. Whether that means you’re heading off on a winter road trip or you are looking for a new job, you’ve likely got a lot of changes planned.
One way in which you can make a difference to your day to day life in 2021 is by completing some small home renovations! These small changes will make your life a lot easier and less stressful – and they won’t break the bank in doing so!

Deep Clean
Although cleaning isn’t necessarily a ‘renovation’, you’d be surprised about how different your home will look after a deep clean. This means far more than turning on the vacuum and begging your kids to pack up their toys – you need to write down a list of everything that needs cleaning and work your way through it, one thing at a time. This can include lesser-cleaned areas, such as skirting boards and the insides of cupboards. Afterward, your home will look brand new!

If it is broke…fix it.
Sometimes, when things break in our home, we allow them to remain broken. From the faulty step we promise ourselves we will fix later, or the window that doesn’t seem to open – we often ignore these problems for a while before we resolve them. However, this only leads to more stress. Therefore, start 2021 on the right foot by fixing anything that is broken in your home. Though this may mean you need to bring in a professional, it is definitely worth the investment. Additionally, there are plenty of tasks you can probably tackle yourselves. For example, if you are experiencing problems with your furnace HVAC pulley in your furnace, you can find the parts you need online and have them delivered to your door in no time. If you purchase from FurnacePartsSource, they’ll also be able to provide you with expert guidance on how to use the pulley!

Lights, Lights, and more lights!
Lighting can make a real difference in how a room looks. Therefore, if you want to make small changes that have a real impact on your home, consider changing up the lights that you use in your home. This does not necessarily mean switching out a traditional lampshade for a chandelier – you can also change the bulbs you use. For example, some bulbs emit a bright, white light that can make smaller rooms look a lot bigger. They also emulate natural light, so they are useful in areas that don’t get a lot of sunlight during the day. However, there are thousands of different bulbs on offer, so take your time to find the perfect fit for your room and the atmosphere you want to create.

Grab your paint!
Sometimes, the only thing you need to transform a room is a splash of color. This can truly change the way a room feels, turning a dark and uninviting bedroom into somewhere warm and cozy. Thankfully, a splash of color can easily be achieved by grabbing a paintbrush and going crazy! Don’t be afraid to try brilliant and bold colors. After all, this is your house – so why shouldn’t your favorite shade make an appearance?
