The First 3 Things to Do When Refreshing Your Home
Not Sure Where to Start?
Life moves fast, and as a busy professional, your home should be a sanctuary—one that reflects your style and supports your lifestyle. But when it comes to giving your home a refresh, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by endless choices and trends. Whether you’re in League City, Galveston, or anywhere in the Houston Bay Area, taking the first step is often the hardest part. Here’s how to get started with confidence.
DEFINE YOUR VISION
Before making any changes, take a moment to clarify what you want from your space. Do you need a more functional home office? A refreshed living room for entertaining? Or a bedroom retreat where you can truly unwind? Start by gathering inspiration—Pinterest boards, magazine clippings, or even snapshots of hotels and restaurants you love can help shape your ideal aesthetic. At Amy Baez Interiors, we always encourage our clients to create a mood board to refine their vision and set a clear direction.
DECLUTTER AND EDIT
Refreshing your home isn’t always about adding more—it’s often about removing what no longer serves you. Walk through each space and evaluate what stays and what goes. Donate, repurpose, or store items that feel outdated or no longer align with your style. A decluttered space not only feels more polished but also gives you a clean slate to work with, allowing intentional design choices to shine.
FOCUS ON HIGH-IMPACT CHANGES
You don’t need a full renovation to see a dramatic difference. Focus on key updates that create maximum impact, like swapping outdated light fixtures, refreshing wall colors, or upgrading textiles. A fresh coat of paint in a modern neutral, stylish new drapes, or even a statement mirror can instantly breathe life into a room. If you’re unsure where to begin, Amy Baez Interiors specializes in curating high-impact updates tailored to your home and lifestyle.
DESIGN TIP
Simplicity, Function, Flow
Prioritize changes that not only elevate aesthetics but also improve the way you use your space daily.
DESIGN TREND
Natural, Textured, Timeless
Incorporate materials like rattan, linen, and warm wood tones to add depth, warmth, and character to your refresh.
A well-designed home isn’t just about looks—it’s about creating a space that truly supports and inspires you every day. If you’re ready to refresh your home but don’t know where to start, I’m here to help! Let’s bring your vision to life with thoughtful, intentional design.
