5 Easy Painting Projects for Winter

The middle of winter can be difficult. Especially after being at home more than usual for the past almost two years. The weather is dreary and gray. And there isn’t much you can do outdoors unless you are an avid outdoorsman or a professional skier. But these conditions can provide a great opportunity to complete a home improvement project or two. Why not make use of your mandatory indoor time by planning an interior painting project this winter?

At CertaPro, we are professionals in not only painting, we can help you plan out your project, choose paint colors with our expert color consultants, and we even do light carpentry tasks and repairs that may need to be completed prior to painting. Our CertaPro Painters®️ value helping you maintain the beauty of your home through our painting & other services.

Below are a few interior painting projects that you could complete this winter:

Paint An Accent Wall

One of the simplest and most unique ways to add character to any entertainment or living room area is to add an accent wall. An accent way is one wall that is a different (complimentary) color than the rest of the walls in the same room. There is no limit to how creative you can get with the color of paint you choose.  You can stay simple with a darker variation of your current room color, get fancy with jewel-tone hues or add a pop of bright color.

Paint Your Interior Brick

Do you have a fireplace or another interior brick accent in your home? An easy way to update dated orange and brown brick from the 70s & 80s is by adding a fresh coat of paint to brick surfaces. You can have your painting contractor use a sleek, bright white for a modern flair, or go more muted chalky white for a weathered farmhouse look.

Refresh Your Kitchen Cabinets

A great way to make use of spending more time inside is to have your kitchen cabinets painted & refreshed. This is one small project that can have a huge impact on the overall look of your kitchen. While a white kitchen is still very fresh and trendy, a pop of color like navy can be a nice eye-catching option as well. Or you can even switch it up and paint the bottom cabinets different from the top.

Paint Faded Or Outdated Trim

One area that often goes without proper maintenance is your trim and crown molding. With something that typically doesn’t take up much space, it can be easy to not pay attention to its wear and tear. People are constantly bumping into the trim and the molding can get dull and dusty. However, having a new coat of paint added to these trim details can really accent and define your interior rooms.

Repaint Your Guest Room

When it comes to repainting, most of us put more value in our more utilized spaces like the master bedroom, bath, and other living spaces. However, if you have the budget this year you could hire your local CertaPro Painters®️ to update this room as well. This is a simple way to make your guests feel more welcome and cozy while staying at your place and it will be ready to go for your holiday season guests.
