How to update your home for the holidays

Home for the Holidays

Each year we look forward to celebrating with friends and family at holiday time.  A  fun fresh space can really bring the room together, here are a few tips to update your space while the clock is counting down to deck the halls.

Holiday Design Idea: How do you make a space cozy?  

Design Tip #1 Fireplace Mantel   

Think early morning presents and sipping tea in vintage mugs in front of a beautiful fireplace.  Its a perfect quick makeover for a room that already has a fireplace, or not!  Doubling as a smooth wood shelf housing family photos and collectibles, this design can really tie a room together.  Shop Mantels

Design Tip #2 Wood Flooring

Natural wood in soft tones can really bring out your warm and fuzzy side.  Our engineered flooring comes in a variety of neutral colors to make a base of operation for present opening and decorating the tree.  Pair with a natural wood accent like this driftwood light fixture and some cool metal accessories for something to delight this winter.  Shop Flooring

Design Tip #3 Wood Wall Paneling

Just moved in and haven’t had time to decorate?  Put some reclaimed wood paneling on bare walls for an instant makeover.  Warm up those empty spaces with natural wood grain with the latest design trend.  Best part is when you are ready to hang some art you don’t have to worry about finding a stud, just go in with a picture hook and you are good to go.  Shop Wood Wall Paneling

Design Tip #4 Wood Windows

If you found a handyman special and got a great deal on a fixer-upper, the addition of solid wood windows from Albany Woodworks is a smart choice.  Drafts from leaky old windows can add costly heating expense.  So update that space and save some money too!  These elegant wood windows are built to the specification for your order and are shipped to your site prepped and ready for glass.  Shop Wood Windows

Design Tip #5 Custom Stairs

A perfect location for holiday group photos, the stairs are a focal point of your home.   Are you tripping over that loose stair-tread?   We can create stair parts from any of our collections to ensure that your project captivates anyone that walks through the door.  Shop Custom Stairs
