Make a New Year's resolution to improve your home for 2014

Do you find yourself making the same New Year’s resolution every year, only to break it by January 5th? Are you tired of resolving to quit smoking or exercise more, knowing full well you’ll do neither?
This year, make a New Year’s resolution you’re more likely to stick to – and one that will benefit the whole family.
Leading housebuilder Taylor Wimpey is urging people to prove that home really is where the heart is, by making a New Year’s resolution to do something that improves your property.
Jason Stokes, Regional Sales & Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Home is the place where we spend most of our time, so making a commitment this New Year to do something around the house is really worthwhile.
“Whether it’s finally clearing out that junk room, tackling a DIY project you’ve been putting off for years or simply having loved ones over more often, making a New Year’s resolution for your home will be much easier to see through – and the whole family will really reap the rewards.”
Householders are being invited to consider one of these New Year’s resolutions for the home:
De-clutter your home by sorting through your old clothes and household items and donating them to charity
Take more photos of your friends and family and put them on display around your house
Spend more time with your children by leaving work at the office and setting evenings and weekends for quality family time
