Although your hosting capabilities may be wasted this year, there’s no reason why you can’t use this time to wow your crowd at the next opportunity! Here are our top renovation projects to consider, for top-tier entertaining next thanksgiving.
Kitchen Appliance Upgrades
It’s no secret that quality food is a sure fire way to impress your guests. If you’re into home cooking, consider an upgrade! Higher quality ovens produce better results, often with an easier process. Consider dual ovens, a stylish and functional feature to any modern kitchen. Dual ovens come in handy to cook dishes at different temperatures without compromising either result. Alternatively, upgrading to a convection oven also produces restaurant-quality results through superior heat distribution whilst saving energy dollars.
A Comfortable Dining Room
Dining rooms are often underused spaces. The perfect additions to your dining room take into account your own family’s needs as well as your entertaining goals. Generally, comfort plays a role in both scenarios. It’s important to make this space formal enough for your most important meals, and inviting enough for both your guests and your own family’s use. There’s nothing more inviting during chilly fall days than a cozy fireplace. Start with ensuring you have enough room for those most important to you, and go from there!
Television Room Additions
A television room upgrade makes hosting easy, if you enjoy watching a movie or listening to music in the background of your festivities. Depending on your starting point, the addition of external speakers may be life-changing, or surround sound may be up your alley! If you like to put a movie on for the kids, sound-proofing the theatre or games rooms may be a renovation worth considering.
A Convenient Wet Bar
If your group enjoys a cocktail or so, we recommend considering the addition of a wet bar! Wet bars are a great tool for serving beverages away from the main kitchen, generally in finished basements. Although ROIs for wet bars tend to surge and decrease with regularity, they come in handy for hosts to serve their guests without interrupting their own participation in the evening.
