Liven Up Your Deck/Patio

Take full advantage of your deck or patio space this spring. Create an intricate outdoor dining area, buy new furniture or furnishings, or update the lighting. However, you’d prefer to use your deck or patio, outfit it according to your taste and incorporate that into what you like to do when relaxing outdoors at your home.

Spruce Up Your Pathways

You’ll be spending more time outdoors this spring. So, why not create something beautiful along the pathways to and from your home? Consider installing some edging or step stones along pathways (or creating them), add some pathways lighting, flowers alongside – anything that you fancy to help boost your home's curb appeal and making your time outdoors more enjoyable.

A Little TLC for Your Landscape

After the winter season has come and gone, your landscape will likely be looking a little barren. It’s time to give it a little TLC. Aside from the typical maintenance you’d perform, try something new in the area of your yard. Plant some flowers in a spiral pattern, create a butterfly garden, mulch, or add stones to accent areas. Get creative and create something inspiring!

Freshen the Décor

Give the interior of your home a fresh new look for spring by switching around some of your seasonal décor. It can be as simple as new throw pillows, lighter and brighter artwork, a new coat of paint, or even some lovely new accessories. 

Clean the Closets

There’s no need for those large winter coats to be taking up space in your closet once that delightful spring weather arrives. Consider storing, donating, or selling any articles of clothing that are no longer serving you. Keep it cool with some light jackets, bright clothing, or even just some reorganizing to give your closet a fresh new look.

 

There’s no limit to how creative you can get with these DIY improvements to your home at the Lake of the Ozarks. Spring is the time of new life and it’s a great time to spruce up your place to reflect just that. After all, you’re going to be wanting to spend more time at your lake home with this warmer weather.
