As we head into the cooler months, we will find ourselves spending more time in our homes. And, chances are, during this time we will also find things that we want to do around our houses. Even if you’re not thinking about selling anytime soon, making some updates can improve the appearance and increase the value of your home.
While a fresh coat of paint and some new handles can go a long way on improving the appearance of your home, there are some updates that will make a room stand out! When you do go to sell, these home improvements can draw buyers towards your home. They could even get you a return on your investment!
Fireplaces
One area of your home that you may want to consider updating is your fireplace. Updating the look with stone veneer and even a custom mantle can change the whole look of a room. For example, with this fireplace, we not only added stone veneer around it, we turned the whole wall into a stone veneer accent wall and added some custom-built mantles.

AfterBar Upgrade
If you have a bar in your basement, you may be looking at it and thinking it’s time for an upgrade. One way to do that is by adding stone veneer and also an epoxy bar top! With this bar we upgraded previously, we also added some accent lights around it. The awesome transition from before to after really shows you what can be done with a simple bar.
