Living Room Renovation Guide

Sep 15, 2023 | Living Room Renovation

As we grow, our tastes tend to change. Sometimes the living spaces we spent countless hours decorating no longer suit those tastes. Renovating your living room can be both exciting and stressful, with lots of small factors that create the big picture. Before you start your project, use this guide to prepare yourself. Start by asking yourself: how big is this living room renovation? Are you planning on remodeling? Will you be hiring a contractor? If you’re already stressed about this project, don’t worry. This Shorely Beautiful Living Room Renovation Guide is here to help.

 

Come Up With Your Plan

There are a few factors to consider when starting a plan for a living room renovation. Here are just a few of our tips:

  • Choose a theme – Maintain cohesion in your living room by choosing an overall theme to follow in terms of decorations and coloring. Some examples of living room themes include:
    • Floral
    • Modern
    • Beachy
    • Cottage
    • Contemporary
  • Set your budget – Whether you have a couple thousand dollars or $10,000+ to spend, creating a living room remodeling budget will keep you from going overboard on costs. You can pay out-of-pocket for these costs or secure a home improvement or home repair loan for additional help with home renovation financing.
  • Consider the lighting – One of the most effective ways to open up and refresh a space is by brightening it. Think about purchasing light or white furniture, keeping the walls light, or adding more lighting to the room in-general to really uplift the space.
  • Think about flooring – What type of flooring do you want throughout your living room? Depending on your theme and preferences, your living room can include hardwood, laminate, or carpeting. Even different colored flooring can completely transform a room. Check out the variety of flooring options available at Shorely Beautiful.
  • Find the right furniture – The furniture is the most important feature in any living room. You’ll want to choose furniture that fits your theme, but also stands out in its own way. Feel free to add a pop of color to the room with a bright accent table or armchair!
  • Don’t ignore the windows – The type of blinds and window treatment in your living room will affect the lighting and atmosphere of the whole space. You’ll want blinds that are durable and easy to manipulate. At Shorely Beautiful, we specialize in installing automatic window blinds to make it as easy as possible to brighten up your renovated living room.
