As the freeze begins to thaw the frozen tundra we call winter, now has never been a more opportune time to start a remodeling project. Spring is coming soon and the days are growing longer, if you have kids during the springtime, you can muster a small army of volunteers over the weekend to help you out. Millions of people across the world take the opportunity to begin organizing and decluttering from their hibernate states as the snow begins to melt.
Traditionally, this big cleaning spree has been known as ‘Spring Cleaning’ and it comes naturally during this time of the year. Spring can also be the most practical seasonal time to undergo an outdoor project, like installing a snow melting system in a new driveway or walkway.
With so many options to choose from and so much inspiration out there, we’ve rounded up a bunch of amazing blogs that will inspire you to start and, more importantly, finish your spring remodeling ideas. No matter what kind of project you have in mind or the limitations you have to work with, these five blogs will give you the crucial kitchen remodeling inspiration you need. Here is our list:
The Ugly Duckling House
‘The Ugly Duckling House’ presents Sarah, a talented restorator with the greatest key tips to build and revive any old home and bring it back from the brink of disintegration. One would even go so far as to describe Sarah as a dreamer who made her dream reality.
She started her site to create a catalog of home remodeling ideas in the hopes that the blog posts could help others on their journey of turning ‘ew’ to ‘wow’. And we love this blog because you can see the improvements she’s made to her time-capsule that was stuck in the ’70s but is now brand new and looking fantastic!
At a glance, Sarah’s relentlessly hard-working, talented, and energized about building a home design that’s destined to be coveted and adored by friends and family. Her house slowly evolves over time and we thoroughly enjoyed seeing the amazing transformations.
Sarah has a great house now after years of renovation efforts. The vintage house she moved into has completely flipped to a modern oasis of luxury. Sarah presents her projects with an interesting approach she writes excitingly to engage her growing audience. We are all plugged in and anticipating the next installment of her blog.
“I like tearing my house apart and putting it back together again,” she says. A perfect sentiment to describe Sarah’s curiosity. An unbridled spirit is unamused with what can only be seen at the surface. Her findings represent a true testament to women’s empowerment and innovation.
We will continue exploring her blog as we completely fell in love with her work.
