June is coming to an end and it’s almost July. You know what that means- pulling out all the stops for the Fourth of July! If you’re particularly patriotic, you may just want to celebrate it all year round. The way your home looks and feels should be a reflection of you, not bland and faceless. Just like we suggested that you incorporate green into your decor if you love St. Patrick’s Day, you can incorporate your love for our country into your home as well. Here are a few fun ideas to get you started:
#1 Choose red, white, and blue colors in a back splash. Adding a new black splash is the perfect way to completely change the way a room looks, without a major renovation project. You won’t believe how easy it is to change the back splash and put in new appliances, and your guests won’t believe you didn’t have the whole kitchen redone! While considering this option, be sure to visit our Remodel Design Center, located at 1213 Cape Coral Parkway E. Here, you’ll see two display walls filled with options for you to choose from. Blues, reds, whites, and golds are just the beginning. Even after you choose a color palette, you can still experiment with shapes and finishes. The wide array of eye-catching materials like glass, wood-look, metals and stone that you can pick out will make your back splash the focal point of your newly-designed kitchen.
#2 Pick out some patriotic decor. Even if you love the idea of a themed room, you may not want to do it for a large area, like the living room or your master bedroom. Instead, why not opt for a smaller space, like the guest bathroom? There are a ton of ideas for a patriotic room on Pinterest. A blue vanity, some great wall art, and some pattern-play are all you need to get started. Don’t worry if you aren’t good at this kind of decorating. Beattie Development staffs a full-time Interior Design Expert for this exact thing!
#3 Include an outdoor kitchen. There’s nothing as American as a good old fashioned barbeque! But if you want to invite everyone over, you’ll have a hard time cooking enough food on a small grill. Plus, you’ll have to run inside constantly for condiments, napkins, drinks, and side dishes. Then, you’ll have to leave everyone when it’s time to clean up the kitchen. If you have Beattie Development install a fully-functional outdoor kitchen, you can throw an amazing Fourth of July bash, while remaining in the middle of all the fun!
#4 Install a built-in fire pit. While there may not be a spectacular display of fireworks every night, you can enjoy being outdoors every night. A fire pit is fun for everyone of all ages! Our remodeling team can install a sturdy, built-in fire pit. It’s the perfect addition for your home to keep your party going after the sun goes down. All you need to do is bring the marshmallows!
#5 Add gold and star details. Red, white, and blue can be tough to work into a home if you don’t want to completely re-do the style. Thankfully, that isn’t where your options end. Gold colors and stars are both easy to incorporate as design accents, without being too ostentatious. You can include a few, several, or even a lot- the choice is yours!
