Home Improvement Season is Here!

If you're like many of us, the approaching spring season is a time to refresh and renew your home and yard in new ways. The warmer weather and fresh air give us a great burst of energy and creativity -- the perfect combination to tackle some "projects" around the house! Not to mention, this final season of Fixer Upper has had inspiration like crazy for all of us who want to spruce up our nests.

Since we all have different tastes, budgets, varied home styles, and a range of DIY skills, today we just want to share a few of our favorite go-to sites when we want home inspiration and project ideas. There are so many options and ideas we can implement in our homes, and we are fortunate to have stores throughout the Tri-State that supply us with materials and accessories of all kinds when we're ready to get started.

These resources are meant to feed your creativity and help you achieve what you want in your home. Do not get overwhelmed or feel like you have to do everything at once. No matter the price point or scope of your dream project, home improvements are always a process! Give yourself plenty of time to really think about what you want and how you want create it.

So, without further delay, here are a few of the home sites we are frequenting this spring:
