Yes, I said Thanksgiving….
My, how time flies. Wasn’t it just February?
The passage of time is keenly felt by all of us, but particularly those of us who plan things. Be that planning a vacation, or, of course, a renovation.
Remember the thoughts you had during last year’s holiday season about how you wanted to make this or that in the house better? Be it the master bath, converting an extra bedroom to a home theater, or just opening up that kitchen so you can talk to your guests while preparing a meal.
Now is the time to start your plan. Make a bullet point list of the things you want the space to do or how you want it to function:
Things I want the space to do:
- Want to be able to have my better half work in the kitchen without bumping into me.
- Want to have more privacy for my home office.
- I really like the view from the master bedroom and I want to have a place to have a chair for us to read or just enjoy the view.
Things my space is not doing:
- The bedroom has no space for a chair or two.
- The kitchen was designed for one skinny person.
- The den/office is right near the front door and the TV room.
At Renovations, we are currently planning projects that will be completed by Thanksgiving. We have found that the planning process for a remodeling project like a kitchen, major bath project, generally takes about four to six weeks. Then of course there is the permitting process. That can take an additional four weeks. Great planning will yield a great project. Enjoy these summer days!
