  • Tackle that junk drawer and find some new storage solutions for one of your most cluttered spaces. A clean kitchen is an efficient kitchen
  • Update your drawers and cabinets with new hardware that showcases your personal style. If you're looking for something vintage or funky, you can search through antique shops.

IF YOU HAVE A WEEKEND

  • Let there be light! Update the lighting fixtures throughout your house, making sure all bulbs are energy efficient. Adding light to dark spaces can change the entire look of a room. Just be sure to turn off the power at the breaker box before touching any wiring.
  • Spend some time outside adding new planters, flowers or trees to your yard. Place flagstones to create a patio that doesn’t require mortar. Add new outdoor furniture, make a pitcher of lemonade and enjoy your outdoor paradise all summer! 
  • Consider updating your wet bar with the cleaning convenience of a glass rinser, or get ready for summer and turn it into smoothie central!
