Kids moved out? Redecorate with blinds

Once the kids have flown the nest it could be an opportune time to redecorate their bedrooms, an expert has said.

While most parents’ initial concerns will be about the welfare of their departing son or daughter, who may be off to university or a house of their own, it shouldn’t be forgotten that a home should always be updated to reflect the needs of those living in it.

Those Spiderman curtains might have been great for your son, but if his room is to become a guest bedroom or even a study, new blinds may be more suitable.

And the benefits aren’t just lifestyle related; it could also boost the sale value of a property, as Compasscayman.com explains:

“Simply turning the space into a more adult environment can enhance home value. Home selling shows regularly feature selling specialists advising homeowners to replace kids’ clutter with a more grown-up look that will be more appealing to potential buyers,” it advises.
