Easy Home Projects You Can Complete in a Weekend

Sometimes home improvement seems like an all-or-nothing proposition – loads of time and expense or it lingers on your wish list forever. It doesn’t have to be that way! Here are 6 weekend home projects that you can start and finish before you go back to work on Monday.

1.Build a swing set

Creating your own swing set is a great way to keep the kids active, creative, and away from screens for a whole weekend – and beyond! Let them help you pick colors and swing types and if they’re old enough, they can even lend a hand in construction.

2.Revamp your entryway

First impressions matter. With a fresh coat of paint, artful lighting, and some basic landscaping, you can turn your front door into a warm welcome for guests and household members alike.

3.Update your laundry room

Doing laundry may be drab, but the space you do it in doesn’t have to be. Whether you have an entire separate laundry room or a “laundry corner” in the basement, you can spruce it up by adding shelving, getting some attractive containers for essentials like detergent and dryer balls (which you can also make yourself from thick wool yarn ), and building a fold-away laundry folding table.

4.Organize your drawers

This is a great weekendDIY for the busy homeowner. You can make dividers for all of your drawers or just a few, depending on how much of your weekend is free. Choose some drawers that need organizing – the kitchen can be a great place to start – and decide how you want them laid out. The best part about building your own drawer organizer is that you can customize it any way you like. Measure out your spaces then cut plywood to fit.

5,Update your kitchen hardware

You don’t have to tear up your home and up-end your life to make your kitchen shiny and new. Just take your old kitchen hardware – your drawer pulls and cabinet handles – and replace them with new ones. There are plenty to choose from at most hardware stores and they’re not difficult to install.

While you’re at it, you can also replace your kitchen faucet. Just make sure to choose one that’s compatible with your current setup!
