How You Can Improve Your Home's Value This Summer Without Going Over Budget

Summer is one of the best times of the year to get a head start on adding value to your home. With longer and more comfortable days, you don’t have to worry about the weather ruining your flow.

But you don’t have to embark on a major renovation to add value to your home this season. In fact, you can get a serious “wow” factor by tackling only a few small projects.

That said, here are some manageable projects you can take on this summer to give your home a beauty-boost.

Not only is planting for your pollinators eco-friendly, but it also makes yard maintenance that much easier.

Give your entryway a facelift
Up to 60% of participants in a Furniture Today survey said they design their living room around their sofa. But many people tend to forget that the entryway is as important as the living room

Your entryway is your place to charm visitors, take off your shoes after a long day, and feel welcomed home. It’s like the lobby of a hotel. So why leave it sad and dull?

Consider painting your entryway a happy color or add some boutique furniture for a bit of flair. Area rugs can also help by adding more color to your space and making it feel separate from the rest of the house.

It may also be a good idea to consider boutique furniture like benches or side tables. This would create a kind of organization station. The less clutter you have in your entryway, the more open and welcoming the space will be.
