Improve Your Bathroom Storage |
|
|
|
 Storage space is an important aspect of any bathroom, especially if you have a large family or one that will be growing soon. While it might be necessary to spend some time renovating existing space to add storage, it will be well worth it in the end. A quick way to create extra storage space in any bathroom is to remove the doors from the under-the-sink storage. From there, you can install additional shelves to this space and use baskets or other creative pieces for storage. This will provide a more efficient use of the space. You can also replace your vanity with one that has more drawer storage. Vanities come in a variety of sizes and options, so there is bound to be the right storage solution for your needs. Another easy storage solution for your bathroom is to build vertically. For example, you can build vertical cupboards on your bathroom counter (perhaps between the Jack and Jill sinks). This allows you to save much of your counter space for other things, yet add to the amount of storage in the room. Vertical cupboards can even be added to the floor of the bathroom, similar to how an armoire works in the bedroom. Depending on the space in your bathroom, you may also be able to build shelves into the walls. These shelves can be left open for storing towels, soaps or even displaying knick-knacks. Of course, another obvious way to add bathroom storage is by adding shelves to the walls. Natural areas for hanging shelves are near the sink and tub/shower. Additionally, you can add pegs underneath these shelves –providing a spot to hang towels. Overall, options abound for adding storage to your bathroom – if you just get a little creative. Let us help!

A Refreshing and Affordable Kitchen Remodel |
|
|
|
|
When you hear the words “kitchen remodel,” do you immediately jump to the conclusion that it is going to cost an exorbitant amount of money? Not true! Undertaking a smaller kitchen remodeling project is a fantastic way to give your kitchen a refreshing makeover, and it doesn’t have to cost tons of money. Just establish a budget and keep in mind that your makeover should fit into your home’s décor, your personality, and consider how you use your kitchen. There’s no point in making over a kitchen if it isn’t even what you like, or it won’t create the functionality you desire while you cook. You and your family spend a great deal of time in the kitchen preparing meals and snacks – so it is important that it fits the functionality of your family. The best place to start with any kitchen remodeling project is by looking at the countertop – and replacing it. This one little change can create an entirely different appearance in your kitchen. At Lloyd’s Cabinet Shop, our clients most popular choice is a Corian® solid surface. A very durable option that will give your kitchen a complete new look. Appliances are another important element of any kitchen remodel. If you haven’t purchased appliances in a few years, you’d be surprised at how many options there are. Appliances are quieter, sleeker and more energy efficient than ever before, so there are a lot of choices available to match your specific cooking and entertaining needs. For example, if you do a lot of baking or host Sunday dinners for the extended family, you may want to explore installing a double oven. Or if you have a large family, you may consider adding a second dishwasher – if you have the space. We recommend visiting Stambaugh Appliance for your Appliance needs. Finally, color is always a consideration with a kitchen remodel. Many kitchens featured in magazines are full of trendy and bright colors; however, this can scare conservative homeowners who remember the days of avocado green appliances of the 1970s (and being stuck with those colors for years). To create color within your kitchen, consider having all of the “big ticket items” (countertops, cabinets, flooring and tile) in neutral colors – that will be timeless for many years. To give your kitchen color, however, use paint and accessories. Paint a wall (or two) a brighter color, and add texture with window treatments. This way, you can "change up" your kitchen every few years with minimal expense. Consider Westside Decorating Center for your decorating needs. Remember: a kitchen remodel doesn’t have to be expensive. With the right plan and budget, you can have a refreshed kitchen that is functional, fun and improves your overall enjoyment of the space. |
