If you recently purchased a new home, you’re probably wondering how you can make the place feel more like yours. Once the interior of a room is painted, 88% of people want to design more of the home, according to House Grail. So, when planning your interior painting project, which rooms should you do first? Find out from our guide below!
1. Bedroom
Bedrooms come in a variety of sizes, and it’s easier to paint the room while it’s empty. If you can, it’s recommended to have the rooms painted before the furniture gets delivered. With the bedrooms painted and furniture delivered, everyone can relax during the hectic moving process.
2. Kitchen
Depending on the size of your kitchen, it may take a few days for the painting project to be completed, which means you won’t be able to use it during that time. Having it painted as soon as possible gets you back into your kitchen, so you can create delicious meals for your family.
3. Bathrooms
One of the most utilized rooms in the home is the bathroom. Since most are not large, it won’t take long to paint them. If your place has two or three bathrooms, make sure one is available while the others are being painted.
4. Living Room
This is where everyone unwinds after a long day. Creating your own space is essential. That’s why you’ll want to paint and decorate the living room once you’ve decided on the right color palette.
5. Guest Room
With the other rooms done, and enough in the budget, this is when you can finish your home, which is usually the spare room/office. If these rooms aren’t utilized daily, it’s not a major deal to wait for decorating. Painting your guest room a universal color is always a great idea and will make your guests feel right at home.
