The arrival of spring means new beginnings and a fresh chance to tackle those home improvement projects you've been putting off for the last several months. Get your Keller home ready for summer and make it more beautiful, efficient and functional than ever with these five seasonal projects.
Keep, donate or trash.
Your first step is to declutter the home. Separate items into three categories: keep, donate or trash. Here's a tip: if you haven't used something in the last year, chances are you can get rid of it. Items such as unwanted electronics, housewares and gently used clothing can be donated to charity. For everything else, check with your local recycling program before putting anything in the garbage.
Get serious about spring cleaning.
Give your home a fresh start by wiping down windows, countertops, electronics, appliances, doorknobs, furniture, light fixtures and ceiling fans. Also, be sure to mop floors and vacuum carpet. Unsure where to start with window cleaning? Check out these tips from Pella.
Bring your deck back to life.
Winter can be hard on our decks with cold temperatures and occasional hail. Take a close look at your deck and check for warped, loose or splintered boards. Sweep away anything that may have fallen between the cracks, make any needed repairs, scrub or power wash, and restain if necessary.
Do a color refresh.
Whether you're adding a fresh coat of paint to your interior or exterior walls, or completely changing the colors of your home, spring is the perfect time to renew your home's look. One 2016 trend so far is bold entry doors
Bloom where you are planted.
Whether you are a Keller homeowner, renter or sublessee, celebrate the new season by creating spaces for bright flowers and making the most of your garden. You can also bring the outdoors in with hanging baskets and potted plants.
