Most people would like to feel proud of their home and the premises they use. However, not everyone has the time, money, resources and imagination to get the most desirable results!
While some people focus on making their house a showcase, others try to make it best serve their needs, purposes and personal situation. In either case, one’s choices of colors, attention to painting and proper maintenance (actual and preventive), often makes a significant difference.
This article will briefly discuss five reasons for clearly keeping color choice and proper painting foremost in one’s considerations.
Demonstrate your personality!
Do you know what will meet your purposes? How will you maintain the best balance of making the home your own, while maintaining the highest potential, when the time comes to sell? When making these types of decisions, will you know what your personal plans are? Do you plan to stay in this house for a while, or is this a short – term stay? If you plan to move soon, focus on things which enhance the perceived value, for others. If you plan on remaining for a while, subtly introduce color, hues, and personal, well considered touches and nuances.
Clean and fresh
No matter how well you maintain your home, and how neat and clean, you may be, you will need to paint on a regular schedule. Painting makes a house clean and fresh, provides pride in ownership, and maintains both the interior and exterior of your house, properly!
Coordinated colors and themes
Is the color of your front door, welcoming and warm, saying to others you care, or it drab and entirely traditional? Studies indicate that when one makes his door a warm color, such as yellow or light blue, it makes the house stand out, in a positive, exceptional way. How will you offset the shutters, so it makes a positive statement? Look in magazines, speak to designers, and balance your inner personality, with good taste!
Indoors and outdoors
What’s the first impression one gets of your house, as they drive up to it? Is the paint neat, or is it peeling, or dirty? What’s the appearance of the entry foyer, etc? Does your home and its paint, and colors, say something positive or negative, about it?
Doors and windows
Doors usually take the most abuse, and thus, often exhibit the most wear and tear! Make a bold, friendly, welcoming statement, by how you paint and color your doors! Be sure that all painted areas around windows are cleaned, painted, and freshened, on a regular basis.
Maintaining one’s house is perhaps the least expensive, yet often, one of the most essential forms of insurance, etc. Take advantage of painting and how colors are used, to get the most benefits for you – either pleasant to the eye surroundings, or added value to the price of your home.
