While you probably already have your own list of to-dos that have been piling up, we have a few ideas for simple and satisfying home maintenance tasks. Here are five projects that are perfect to tackle this winter—just in case you need some motivation.
Touch up paint
If the paint in your home has experienced some wear and tear since the last fresh coat, now is a great time to touch up. All it takes is a can of touch-up paint, a brush and an afternoon to help your walls look as good as new.
Frame your mirrors
If a full bathroom remodel is outside your skillset, you can still make a showstopping upgrade by giving your mirror a framing facelift. Check out our Add A Frame® collection to find your ideal easy install.
Bulk up your insulation efforts
Whether adding insulation to your attic or sealing off your windows, a better-insulated home in winter may result in lower utility bills. Take the time to get it done so you can start enjoying those energy-efficient savings.

Fresh air filters can help you breathe better this winter—and we're willing to bet it's time to change yours since this is the ultimate procrastinator's task. Just trust us: If you buckle down and do it, it'll be done before you know it.
