Conservatories are a great way to add more space to your home; a comfortable area which brings light in whatever the season. Now that we’ve passed the main hit of winter, how can you start preparing your conservatory for the sunnier seasons?
Clear out
There’s a strong chance that you neglected your conservatory in the winter time – heating can cost a lot of money and you probably found yourself using the extra space for Christmas things and leftover cardboard boxes.
Give your conservatory a good clear out and thorough clean – including all of the windows - to prep for the summer season where you’re sure to be using the space to its best ability. Be ruthless with the stuff you’re throwing away – no hoarding now! You want your conservatory to be a calm and relaxed space, which is best achieved through minimalistic design.
Redecorate
How about replacing those fluffy pillows and furry rugs with something a little bit brighter to reflect the upcoming season? Think about how your current furniture will look in the natural light and evaluate if you need a total revamp or just a few extra touches for a real summer feel.
You could even think about doing a bit of a paint job, whether just a top up to keep it looking fresh, or something a bit different. You’re best to stick to light shades though as this will maximise the natural lighting around the room.
Blinds
Conservatories do get hot in the sun – this can be both a positive and a negative. The negative of that being that it can get too hot. This is why you’ve got to consider how you’re going to control the conservatory’s temperature in the warmer months.
There are a number of ways you can do this but installing blinds is the most efficient and safest option. Whilst leaving the doors or windows open in the conservatory to let the wind blow in may sound idyllic, in reality, it’s just doors slamming constantly and risking intruders. Air conditioning is an alternative, although can be a rather expensive one.
By installing blinds, you can open and close as you wish, controlling how hot or how light you want the conservatory to be – and they look great too!
