We’ve mentioned it before, and yes, were saying it again… Paint is one of the least expensive ways to make the greatest impact. A fresh coat of paint is one of the single best improvements you can make on your home. And as the title above says, a little paint goes a long way.
Here are 20 things around your house that need a fresh coat:
1. Each and every wall. Yes, we are stating the obvious.
2. The banister.
3. The door covered in handprints.
4. The door trim covered in handprints.
5. Scuffed up tabletops.
6. The kitchen cabinets.
7. Any baseboards that have seen better days.
8. Warn steps.
9. Wooden fan blades.
10. Old wood furniture.
11. Anything that looks like it was painted in the 90s.
12. Windowsills.
13. The deck.
14. The fence.
15. That shed in the backyard that you haven’t opened in years.
16. The mailbox.
17. The boat (wait… don’t get sidetracked!).
18. The garage floor.
19. The garage door.
20. And finally, the entire exterior of the house.
It’s time-consuming, but you’ll be surprised what a weekend of painting can do for your home. Start with touchups here and there and then conquer the bigger projects. In a matter of time your house will look as good as new.
