Remodel Your Home For Valentine's Day

Have you recently scored a sweet Gainesville real estate? If you have, that's definitely one lucky day to spend your Valentine's Day! Imagine soaking in the warm tub of your new home, as the love of your life pours chilly champagne.

But wait – is that a crack on the ceiling?

Don't let house flaws get in the way of romance. In fact, you can use this opportunity not only to celebrate the biggest investment you just made, but also to reward your significant other for all his or her support. Has your husband always wanted a cobblestone patio to entertain guests? Does your wife sigh at the thought of a bright yellow kitchen?

Make those dreams come true with a home improvement project!

Easy DIY For Valentine's

1. Personalize
You and your partner are surely ecstatic after buying a new house. Not to mention very tired. With Valentine's only a few days away, romance might be the last thing in your minds. But don't worry - you can still show him or her how much you care. Want a quick way to send butterflies in their tummy? Make your new home truly yours with personal touches. Start by hanging pictures on the wall, along with decorating a few odds and ends both of you purchased together. This is sure to remind them how special they are to you.

2. Create a Nook
Is your significant other a private person? Show him or her that you value their alone-time by building a nest just for them. If there's a spare room in your new Florida abode, like a basement or attic, convert it into something they'd enjoy. It could be a little library filled with their favorite books plus a comfy lounge; or a hobby room in the basement complete with a new gaming device!

3. Say It With Paint
Painting The Walls
One of the things couples often disagree on, is paint job. Whether it's the couples' bedroom or the living room, it's sometimes a challenge to pick a color both parties would be satisfied with. For Valentine's Day, surprise your loved one by painting the walls in the shade of their choice! Not too comfy with the idea? You can do this as well with doors or ceilings. Add a different flair with special wall decals too.

4. Organize
Not in the mood for a heavy project? Even something as easy as keeping your stuff organized can put a smile on your lover's face. Carefully arrange clothes in your walk-in closet so that your wife can find anything she needs in an instant. For the man of the house, you can purchase rotating shelves and stackable boxes to keep the garage looking spiffy. Add your personal touch by throwing in some rose petals or a warm peach cobbler pie waiting in the kitchen!

It's true that not everyone will have some time to spare – especially only days after moving. But that's exactly what makes these home projects wonderful. Never forget to celebrate life's little milestones with your significant other. Together, you haven't just bought a house – you have bought a bright future.
