All the small details I forgot about during the home reno process

Hi guys!

I really thought I had thought of everything when we put together our budget and there were several things that came up along the way that I had completely forgot about! I listed everything below and even linked everything we bought.


I forgot:

-Closet lights (with and without a pull chain)

-Door stoppers (attaches to your baseboard)

-Door stoppers (attaches to the door hinge if a baseboard isn't behind it)

-Combined Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Alarms

-Light Bulbs (all the chandelier's I bought came WITHOUT lightbulbs which is fine since I could pick the color temperature I wanted but I didn't realize. I did 5000K in the kitchen and 4000K throughout the house.

-Floor Vents (for bathrooms and laundry)

-Ceiling Vents

-4 Hole, Door Hinges (for our outdoor/indoor doors)

-Stair Brackets (for the railing to sit on)

-Pocket Door Handle (our painter had accidentally painted it)

- Valves for the washing machine


The small details I remembered to account for:

-Outlets

-Light switches

-Light plates (theres 1-gang, 2-gang, 3-gang depending on what you need)

-USB outlets

-Smart WIFI dimmers (we wanted smart ones so we could turn the lights on for our pup Misia when we're at work during the winter and it getting dark early)

-Cable insert plug

-Recessed lights

-Inside door handles

-Handles for outside doors

-Cabinet handles/pulls/knobs (for laundry and kitchen)



See below for all of them
