Being a homeowner is a big responsibility and you have a lot that’s likely on your mind daily. It can be hard to keep up and know how to best care for your home. 

You want to be proud of your property and happy to show it off to guests that you invite over. It’s important that you are giving off the right vibe from the minute someone sees your home. If you want to make your home a better place to live then focus on incorporating the essential ingredients of a welcoming home. 

Cleanliness

A welcoming home should be kept clean and tidy. You should get on a regular cleaning schedule and perform a deep clean every so often as well. When you are cleaning it’s a good time to see what may need repairing and to identify if there are any pest issues. In the case that you do find any unwanted creatures in your house then you should contact pest control right away. They can help you quickly get rid of the problem and ensure they don’t ever come back. 

Inviting Entryway

Another important area that you should consider when you want to create a welcoming home is the foyer or entryway. It’s your chance to make a good first impression. Paint the walls a soothing color and think about adding some small pieces of furniture. You may also want to replace an old light fixture with something else that will truly make a statement. If you have hard flooring then you might want to lay down a colorful area rug that will be warm under your feet. 

The Right Lighting

A welcoming home also includes the right type of lighting in each room. Now is a good opportunity to evaluate the lights and fixtures in your home. Go around and replace dingy and outdated lighting with LED and energy-efficient solutions. Also, consider layering your lighting so that you have plenty of options when it’s time to adjust the lights in any room. You should also think about placing several lamps and candles throughout your spaces that you can use as you please. 

Free from Clutter

A welcoming and special home is also a home that is free from clutter. It’s important that you go through boxes, closets, and drawers and get rid of any items that you no longer need or want. Invest in plenty of storage solutions as well so that everything you have has a place of its own. It can be especially important to declutter if you have a smaller home and want to free up some more space. 

Curb Appeal

Another essential ingredient of a welcoming home has to do with your home’s curb appeal. Make sure that your home is good-looking and well-put together on the exterior as well. Consider budgeting and planning for any big projects you want to tackle such as replacing a cracked driveway or an old garage door. There are smaller tasks you can tackle such as replacing an old mailbox and decorating your front porch as well. You can also paint your front door a new color that pops and put out some plants or flowers.
