With Christmas just around the corner, it’s only natural that you’d start thinking about how you’ll decorate your house. Believe it or not, this may be something you want to consider when planning a new build. How you like to decorate could influence your selections and mechanicals!
Do You Have Enough Power?
A lot of holiday decorations require electricity — and you’re going to need outlets to power everything! For example, you should consider where you’ll need exterior outlets to power your outdoor decorations. Inside, you might want to place extra outlets near where your Christmas tree or shelves where you will display other decorations will go.
Storage Options
Holiday decorations can take up a lot of space, even when they’re packed away in storage. Most Capstone homes include a basement, providing plenty of storage space. Setting up shelving or storage containers in the basement is an easy way to create space for everything after the holidays are over.
Reaching Difficult Places
Many of our floor plans have tall ceilings and the option to upgrade to vaulted ceilings. If you have high shelves or other hard-to-reach spots where you want to place decorations, make sure you have a sturdy, reliable ladder and other equipment so you can safely reach these areas for decorating and cleaning.
No matter what your holiday decorating plans look like, Capstone Custom Homes can help you create a space that is perfectly suited for making them a reality. Contact us today to learn more about our floor plans and customization options!
