Designer Tip Friday:
Plan Your Outlets With Purpose ⚡️
1. Think about your daily routine.
Where do you charge phones, plug in a vacuum, use a hair dryer, or set up small appliances? Put outlets where you actually use them.
2. Add outlets inside drawers or cabinets.
Great for charging stations, hair tools, electric toothbrushes, or keeping countertop clutter hidden.
3. Don’t forget the kitchen island.
Think beyond code requirements—consider where you’ll actually use mixers, laptops, chargers, or other appliances.
4. Plan around furniture placement.
Floor outlets or strategically placed wall outlets can keep cords from stretching across a room, especially with floating furniture.
5. Think about seasonal needs.
An outlet near a mantel, entryway, exterior roofline, or certain windows can make holiday decorating WAY easier.
