HO HO HO & Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals! It’s that time of year again when Santa Claus reigns and we overload our bellies with sweet treats. Suffice to say, it’s our favorite time of year. And, if you grew up like most children throughout the world, then you’re familiar with Santa’s naughty and nice list. Depending on your behavior, you either land on the naughty side or nice side of the list. This year we want to make sure, when it comes to your home renovations, that you land on Santa’s nice list! You wouldn’t want a stocking full of coal for Christmas. So, what are some home renovations that Santa would approve of? Well, let’s dive into some HO HO HOME IMPROVEMENT, shall we?
We’re going to break down Santa’s favorite home renovations by focusing on the main areas that affect that jolly guy in the red suit… The fireplace, living / great room, kitchen and bathroom. Let’s start with Santa’s entry into your home.
Prepare for Holiday House Guests with a Well-Stocked Bathroom
Whether they’re spending the night, moving in, or simply over for an evening of wine, a well-stocked, welcoming guest bath is the mark of a great host.
Giving your guest bath some extra attention could be the thing to tie your entire home together. And what better opportunity to WOW guests with your bathroom design than when they’re staying over for the holidays!
Typically, guest bathrooms are small. Although your guests’ visit may be brief, there is no reason it should be uncomfortable. If you’re considering remodeling the space, our contractors can help. We will work with you to make the best plan, considering everything from space, storage, lighting, design, and of course, budget.
How to Choose the Right Color Palette for Your Home
The saying goes, “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet," but would a house of a different color be as inviting?
Whether you realize it consciously or not, color is fundamental to the world around us: in nature, in fashion, in your loved one’s features, and at home. Choosing a hue can be powerful because of our personal associations with colors and how subjective our perceptions are. If you ever disagreed about the color of an object (maybe a certain dress is blue/black or white/gold), you know what we mean.
Just as your taste in clothing and type of car reflect your personality, so do the colors of your house and the rooms inside. Color psychology has the power to affect your mood, energy levels, and that of your guests.
Hot Springs at Home?
It’s Chili. And we don’t mean that bowl of yum, but that it is actually very chilly outside. Now that we think of it… chili does sound delicious right about now! So, what is better than chili when you’re chilly? A luxurious warm bath! You can even bring your bowl of chili with you. If you’re anything like us, you love a lavish bath in your gorgeous spa oasis.
Tub Time… Take Me Away
Between the biting cold of the outside world and the internal bustle that comes with the holiday seasons, we all need something nice to escape to. It’s time to immerse yourself in the glorious idea of a master bathroom remodel. Picture it with us: It’s the day after Thanksgiving, the family is gone, and the kids are griping about eating leftovers for the (*take a moment to gasp*) second night in a row. You’re feeling wiped out. What’s going to make that a little better? We think the answer could be found between a few candles... in a bubbly tub... with a glass of wine. And alright already, we’ll concede we’ve written about bathroom remodels and renovations a few times on our blog.
