The holiday season is just around the corner, and there’s no better time to give your home the refresh it deserves. Whether you’re hosting family gatherings, throwing festive parties, or simply creating a cozy retreat for yourself, a holiday renovation can make your home more functional and inviting. At Total Renovations Hawke’s Bay, we understand how to help you transform your space just in time for the holidays.
Here’s a guide to making the most of a holiday-inspired renovation:
1. Focus on Key Areas
If you’re short on time, prioritize the spaces that will see the most use during the holidays:
- Kitchen: The kitchen is the heart of any holiday gathering. Consider upgrading appliances, adding more counter space, or installing a stylish backsplash to make your kitchen both functional and festive.
- Living Room: Create a cozy, welcoming space by refreshing the paint, upgrading lighting, or adding built-in shelving for holiday décor.
- Bathrooms: A modern, clean bathroom is essential for hosting guests. Small updates like new fixtures, fresh tiles, or additional storage can make a big impact.
2. Make Space for Guests
The holidays often mean hosting friends and family. A renovation can help you better accommodate guests by:
- Converting a spare room or garage into a guest suite.
- Adding a deck or outdoor entertaining area for summer barbecues.
- Expanding your dining area to fit a larger table.
3. Add Holiday Cheer with Smart Renovations
Small changes can infuse your home with holiday spirit:
- Install a fireplace or improve your existing one for cozy gatherings.
- Upgrade windows and doors for better insulation and a polished look.
- Add decorative lighting to highlight architectural features or create a festive ambiance.
4. Plan Ahead to Avoid Stress
The key to a successful holiday renovation is planning. Work with a trusted team like Total Renovations Hawke’s Bay to create a realistic timeline and budget. Starting now ensures your home will be ready before the holiday rush begins.
5. Consider Future Holidays
While it’s tempting to focus solely on this year, think about how your renovations can serve you in years to come. For example:
- Choose durable materials that will withstand wear and tear from festive celebrations.
- Opt for timeless designs that complement your home year-round.
- Include energy-efficient upgrades to save on utility bills during the cooler months.
