Do not overload a room with too much furniture. A room full of furniture looks tiny, no matter
how big it actually is. Even if lots of pieces fit your lifestyle, potential buyers like to see a lot of
open living space. Fewer pieces of furniture will make the room seem bigger.
Don't overcrowd you room with furnishings. A room full of furniture looks tiny, no matter how
big it actually is. While you may like the furniture, someone looking to buy your home will
probably prefer to see the open space. The smaller amount of furniture will create an illusion
that the space is much bigger.

books, magazines and more. One layout in a magazine can be your inspiration for what you

Always make sure to have sturdy gloves, safety goggles, a hard hat and a solid pair of steel-
toed boots on hand. The price of getting hurt far outweighs the price of the safety equipment.

quite porous. If you fail to seal your grout, it will be moldy. Additionally, grout that has not
been sealed becomes stained easily. If you seal the grout, not only will it save you time in
cleaning your tiles, but it can potentially save you money in costly repairs resulting from
mildew problems.
Be flexible when it comes to home renovation projects. Although you likely want a certain
renovation project completed by a certain date, there are sometimes complications that arise
that prevent the project from being completed by this time. Sometimes, what you want to
achieve just cannot be realistically done within the budget you have set. When you're flexible,
you'll find the process much less stressful.
Never neglect safety equipment whenever you are purchasing home improvement supplies.
Make sure you purchase safety glasses, gloves, hard hats, etc. whenever they are needed.
Being hurt while doing a job will cost more than these safety items. Don't just buy them,
though; actually put them on and use them!

always an element of danger when working with power tools so make sure you are fully
aware of what you are doing. You can find good tutorials online that will help you with your
tasks.

finished product.

you set forth on the journey to improve your home.
