So, What Are Your Staycation Plans?

In a season where your travel plans may change or fall through, here are a few ways to make your home feel like an everyday getaway.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned for certain over the last few years, it’s the fact that nothing is certain – especially as it pertains to travel. 

While you may not always be able to hop on a jet to an exotic destination, even in the best of circumstances, there are updates you can make in your home right now to help you relax, unwind, and enjoy your surroundings.

Here are a few ways you can make your home feel like a vacation destination all year long:

Separate Your Work from Play 

Rule number one of a staycation? No work allowed! Separating your work from the living and entertaining areas of your home not only minimizes visual clutter, but it keeps your workflow more organized. 

Creating an at-home office can be as simple as repurposing a closet, finishing a basement, or room above a garage. Either way, having a dedicated space where work can stay at work will help you stay in the moment during your off hours throughout the week.

Get Your Bathrooms Spa Ready 

Making simple updates to your countertops, lighting, and fixtures can play a huge role in the luxurious feel of your bathrooms. 

Windows that allow for maximum natural light, yet keep this area of your home private, are a must-have. Even heated tiles and in-home saunas are attainable as you transform your home into your own perfect retreat. 

Upgrade Your Kitchen

Listen, we know cooking and cleaning isn’t always ideal – especially on a staycation. But upgrading your space with new tiles, investing in new appliances, or updating the colors of your cabinets can make your kitchen feel more lavish and less like a room of unending chores.

As an added bonus? With a space for your friends and family to gather, you don’t have to travel far to make lasting memories with the people in your life you love most. 

Make the Outdoors an Escape

New opportunities for relaxing and unwinding outdoors are endless. There’s nothing like lounging on an updated porch with privacy screens, or setting yourself up for backyard entertaining with a new patio, or deck space. 

If you begin to think of the area outside your home as another place to escape from the ordinary, you’ll be well on your way to your best staycation yet!
