3 Home Projects Perfect for February

By

From football to flowers, there’s plenty to love about February. Whether you want to host an unforgettable watch party, show your loved ones how much you care about them, or simply check something off of your to-do list, February is the perfect time to spruce up your home.

Here are three DIY projects to tackle this February or anytime this spring.


Tackle a Living Room Refresh

If you’re hosting a big game watch party, chances are you’ve planned an incredible snack spread, found your lucky jersey, and staked out your favorite spot on the couch. While your famous buffalo chicken dip recipe is sure to score major points, one of the best ways to make sure your watch party is a success is to refresh your living room.

If you're hosting plenty of people, declutter your living room and consider adding additional seating. Whether you opt for stackable chairs or invest in new multi-purpose furniture, such as an ottoman with storage, sprucing up your living room before the big game will keep your guests comfortable and give everyone plenty of space to chest bump.

Be Sweet with a Safety Checklist

When you think of celebrating Valentine’s Day, you might plan to pick up a dozen red roses or a box of candy. While everyone adores grand gestures, roses, and chocolates, there are plenty of other ways to show your loved ones how much you care about them. Just like reminding your spouse to wear their seatbelt or walking your friend to their front door is a subtle way to show them how much they mean to you, refreshing your home’s safety plan is a fantastic way to express love.


This February, review your home’s safety checklist and check off those annual tasks. Replace the batteries in your smoke detectors, check the expiration date on your fire extinguisher, and update your emergency contact information. Finding a document or gun safe on sale can help you store your important items or responsibly stow your firearms. Upgrading your home’s safety is a practical way to show your loved ones some TLC this February.

 Think Fast with a Foyer Refresh

February is the shortest month of the year, but you can still fit a worthwhile home improvement project into those quick four weeks. Take advantage of those final winter days by wrapping up any lingering interior home projects. After all, once the days get longer and the weather warms up, you’ll be eager to get outdoors and start landscaping projects!

One quick and effective project to take on during February is refreshing your home’s entryway. Whether a few pairs of muddy winter boots have left your foyer in need of a deep clean or you’re ready to upgrade your front door locks, refreshing the entrance of your home is sure to make a noticeable difference in your daily routine.


While the shortest month of the year tends to fly by, this quick month is the perfect time to take on these three home projects.
