Get busy with these project ideas while stuck at home
As we all spend more time than ever at home, now is a wonderful time to take advantage of opportunities to do quick, easy projects that may help create order and calm. Organization tops the list, as does creating soothing environments.
Looking for some projects to do in your spare time? Here are some ideas to help get you started.
Create an inviting home office. If possible, place your workspace or desk next to a window. Natural light goes a long way in fostering creativity and enhancing your mood.
Implement systems and a schedule. Tired of household tasks always being on the back burner? Create a weekly schedule in which certain chores are performed. For example, do laundry on Monday, clean your home on Wednesday, and plan and execute meal prep on Sunday.
Finish small repairs. Whether it’s the bathroom tub that needs to be recaulked or a small area that needs a bit of touch-up paint, taking on small repairs will lead to a more finished home.
Change light bulbs. Switching from lower wattage bulbs to those with higher wattage is an easy, quick and affordable fix.
Perform routine maintenance tasks such as checking for leaks or minor damage around your home. Additionally, check major appliances and systems that power your home.
Warmer weather is coming in many parts of the country. Now is a good time to prep outdoor items such as furniture and grills.
The kitchen is the heart of the house and where people spend a large amount of time. From organizing cupboards and shelves to pantries, refrigerators and drawers, organizing these areas can help to lead to a greater sense of calm.
