              Have you noticed that your home is starting to look a little bit dated? Everyone wants their home to look its best and reflect their personal style. However, if your house looks old and worn, you may be reluctant to let people see inside. If your home desperately needs a makeover to bring it up-to-date, you may be feeling overwhelmed by the thought of taking on this project. However, working on updating your home to give it a contemporary look does not need to be as challenging as it sounds. Making some simple changes will soon help your home to look modern with minimal effort on your part. Once you get started, you should soon find that your home looks better than ever. Bringing your home up-to-date offers many benefits and can even increase its value, so here’s how to get started on updating your home:

              Eliminate Clutter

              One of the most issues that will make your home look older is excessive clutter. Having stuff piled up around your house and untidy surfaces instantly gives the impression that your home is neglected and unloved. Having clutter throughout your home also attracts dust and makes it harder to clean. Neither of these is helpful if you are trying to make your home look fresh and modern. So, before you move on to DIY projects and taking care of re-decorating your home, it is helpful to start by removing the clutter. Working your way through the house from room to room, tidying it, and getting rid of clutter will instantly make the space look more modern.

              Make it Lighter

              Old, heavy curtains and dirty windows make a home feel dark and dated. In contrast, light, bright rooms instantly feel fresh and spacious. So, switching your window treatments and cleaning the glass is a great way to let the natural light in and give a more contemporary appearance to your home.

              Refresh Your Interior Woodwork

              Interior doors, door frames, window trims, and molding are often painted white. However, over time, these areas of interior woodwork can become discolored. If your interior woodwork was once white but now seems to have a yellowish appearance, it may be time to address this issue. Yellowing paintwork is a sign that the paint is aging and something you must avoid when creating a contemporary look in your home. Repainting the wood will make it look much fresher and get rid of any yellowing that could make your home appear dated.

              Update Your Plates

              Old-style power outlets and light switch covers always make a home look older. These covers often become cracked and discolored after years of use. So, if you are hoping to achieve a more modern look throughout your home, it is wise to replace these as a priority. While changing your outlet and light switch covers may seem like a minimal change, it can make a surprisingly significant difference to the appearance of your living space.

              Give Your Kitchen a Facelift

              The kitchen is a room that adds value to a home and makes it appealing to potential buyers. So, if your kitchen looks like it is stuck in a past decade, this could impact the value of your home and your ability to sell it in the future. Upgrading a kitchen can be an expensive task that runs into tens of thousands of dollars. However, it does not need to be this expensive. Instead, you can make some small changes that deliver maximum impact. Rather than tearing out the entire kitchen, you could replace the cabinet doors and countertops and use caramelized bamboo planks to refresh the breakfast bar for a contemporary look. These inexpensive changes will instantly modernize your kitchen without costing you a lot of money.

              Say Goodbye to Popcorn Ceilings

              Popcorn ceilings were once the height of interior design fashion. However, nowadays, they are a design feature that no homeowner wants to find in their property. Unfortunately, popcorn ceilings are not that easy to work with and can make painting your ceiling a time-consuming task. As a popcorn ceiling is tricky to disguise, your best option is likely to be removing it altogether. If you do decide to remove your popcorn ceiling, you will need to check whether it contains asbestos. If asbestos is contained within the ceiling, this could potentially cause serious health problems if you try to remove it, so using a professional trained in asbestos removal is necessary to protect you and your family from any health implications.
