The stormy weather has taken over the Lake of the Ozarks today! As your sitting by the window watching the rain pour, you're probably thinking about what to do inside all day. Take this time you have stuck in your home at the Lake of the Ozarks to spruce it up a little. Here are 6 simple projects perfect for a rainy day!1. Move the furniture around.
You don't have to go crazy and move every piece of furniture in your house. However, changing it up a bit by swapping two pieces of furniture can change the feel of a room and open things up. Maybe trade a bookshelf in one room for a buffet in another. Or move the side table to the other side of the couch. In addition to spicing up the space, you'll also get some exercise while you're stuck indoors all day!
2. Straighten art work.
Now is the time to step back and take a look at what you've hung around the house. Is it straight? Does it look good in that spot? What could I add to make the room look better? If you have artwork or pictures that are still sitting around, hang it up now while you have the time! You'd be amazed at how much one picture can change the look of wall in your home.
3. Have some craft time.
You would be amazed with what you can do with some old yarn, fabric or paint lying around. Wrap a lampshade in some twine, yarn or other material and make designs to give it a whole new look. Attach wallpaper to your night stand or dresser to add some color, or give it an accent color with a fresh coat of paint! Use some fabric scraps to sew designs on your throw pillows or sew some new pillows. Decorate picture frames with some paint and hang them up. The possibilities are endless when you use your imagination.
4. Reorganize your kitchen and pantry.
As you go into the kitchen each day to make your meals, you think about how nice it would be if everything were organized instead of just thrown in a cabinet or on a shelf. However, with your busy life, you keep putting it off. Now is your chance to sit down, pull everything out and put everything in it's right place!
5. Clean out your closet.
Cleaning out your closet isn't just a project reserved for Spring cleaning. In fact, now is the perfect time to go though everything and get rid of what you haven't worn all Summer. You need to start transitioning from your Summer clothes to Fall/Winter clothes anyway. Use this rainy day to your advantage and get some of these projects you've been putting off done.
6. Sit back and relax.
Pick up that book you've been wanting to read but never had the time. Make yourself a cup of hot cocoa or hot tea and curl up on the couch to relax. Many of us are so busy with our day to day lives that we forget to appreciate the beauty of resting on a rainy day. Take a break and enjoy a lazy day around the house for once!
