Your living room is a central destination in your home. It connects entrances, the kitchen, bathrooms, hallways, bedrooms, staircases, and more; it is also a place to gather, entertain, relax, celebrate, and enjoy. If you have an older home or would like to modernize your living room, family room, or den, a facelift is a budget-friendly and simple way to freshen up this space. A facelift can quickly add functionality, efficiency, and style to a living room, here are a few things to consider that can transform your living room.

Lighting Updates for Your Living Room

Updated lighting fixtures and lamps can be a fun and effective way to change the look and feel of your living room. First and foremost, upgraded LED light bulbs can create significant energy savings. Depending on the amount of natural light in your living room, new bulbs, fixtures, and lamps can make the living room more comfortable on, and for the eyes.

Living Room Hardware Upgrades

A quick and cost-effective way to update the look of your living room is by updating its hardware. While knobs and handles on cabinets and drawers can be easily spruced up, other fixtures like your ceiling fan, vents, and fireplace accessories can subtly, or dramatically change the look and feel of your living room.

Living Room Flooring Replacement

Flooring, while more of an investment, can completely change the appearance, feel, and comfort of not only the living room but your entire home. While updating or upgrading any existing carpet can be a great option, opting for hardwood floors, slate, or tile can make your space feel like an entirely new room. Furthermore, flooring upgrades can actually increase the resale value of your home.

Living Room Painting and Colors

Painting your living room can completely change the way this space looks and feels. Even if you are pleased with the tones in your living room, painting other aspects like the mantle, doors, windowsills, or other surfaces, this project can create a newer, brighter, fresher, ambiance.

Updated Living Room Windows

Windows are an upgrade that cannot only change the way that your living room looks, they can actually pay for themselves by being more energy-efficient. With enhanced natural light and windows that conserve cool air during the summer and warmer air during the winter, your electricity bill can be reduced. Furthermore, updates to the shape, size, and fixtures of your windows can have a great impact on one of the most prominent features of this space.
