New to Home Improvement? Try These Beginner Projects

by Dawn Yerace 10/20/2023

Whether you are a first-time homeowner or someone who is looking to take on a new hobby, it can be intimidating to begin with home improvement projects. Never fear — everyone has to start somewhere. These are the best home improvement projects for beginners.

Painting

The very best project for any beginner to take on is painting a room. There's a lot of room for error, but it's easy to fix your mistakes — if you even make them. You do not need any prior experience to paint a room for yourself. Not to mention, you may find the process relaxing and fun. Crank up the music, get your roller ready and transform your favorite room in the house into a space you can call your own.

Updating Hardware

Updating the hardware on your cabinets or furniture is a minor project that won't take a lot of time, but it will make a big difference in the appearance of your room. Simply go to the hardware store to choose your favorite handles and knobs, and bring them home to install them yourself. All you need is a screwdriver and about an hour to spare!

Installing Molding

Whether your home has outdated molding or no molding at all, you can easily install crown molding yourself to create an elegant and timeless atmosphere in your home. Most beginners find that molding installation is the perfect project to take on.

It is important that you are precise and careful, though. Make sure that you make the correct cuts and install the molding evenly throughout the room.

Design a Gallery Wall

Gallery walls are the perfect accent in any room, and you have a lot of flexibility in creating your own. Use a variety of elements, such as artwork, photos and mirrors. This will help you create an engaging design.

Once you have mastered a few of these tasks, you will have the experience you need to move on to intermediate-level home improvement projects.
