7 Best Places To Add New Plugs In Your Home
Ever felt like your home was playing hide and seek with those elusive electrical outlets? Like, “Hello? Outlet? Where are you when I need you?” Especially if you’re rocking an older crib, those outlets can be rarer than a unicorn sighting. And sure, newer homes might have more, but sometimes they’re just not vibing with your needs. You could go the extension cord route, but let’s be real, that’s like wearing socks with sandals – not the best look (no offense to the Californians). And if you’ve got kiddos or fur babies, it’s a no-go. So, let’s leave the electrical wizardry to the pros and focus on where to sprinkle that outlet magic.
Here are the top seven places to install outlets to make your home more convenient and attractive while providing power accessibility for all of your devices and appliances.
1. Entry or foyer
Surprise! Bet you didn’t think of this one. Got a fancy foyer? Light it up with a table lamp. And hey, why not sneak in a charger there? Perfect for those “Oh snap, I forgot to charge my phone” moments as you dash out.
2. Floors and baseboards
Traditional outlets are so last season. Why not pop one in the middle of the room? No more tripping over cords! And baseboard plugs? Sleek and chic, baby.
3. High up on the wall
Okay, hear me out. An outlet way up there? For your flat screen! No more cord spaghetti hanging down. Clean, neat, and oh-so-sophisticated.
4. Bathroom walls
One outlet in the bathroom? Psh, why not double the fun? No more cord limbo over the sink. Remember, water and electricity are like oil and water – they just don’t mix.
5. Kitchen counter
Move over, middle-of-the-wall outlets. The new trend? A snazzy bar of outlets right under those cabinets. No more appliance musical chairs!
6. Garages
Your garage isn’t just for storing those questionable DIY projects. Power up your tools, that extra freezer, or even your secret robot army. A couple more outlets? Yes, please!
7. Outdoors
Bring the party outside! Light up your porch, blast some tunes, and make your backyard the envy of the neighborhood. But let’s keep those extension cords hidden, okay?
