Spring has sprung, so let’s shake off the dark days of winter and embrace a fresh, light look. Throw open the curtains and let the sun help your home emerge from the winter blahs.
Maybe some of your furnishings are due for a refresh after lots of holiday company and kids home from school (or too much damp spring doggie?) If so, consider the light, bright effect of a new neutral tone sofa in your family room, or a couple of versatile light accent chairs.
Make smaller sunny changes by storing those dark heavy fabrics and woolens from colder months.
Add some new cotton pillows in creams, ivories, and the pale blues and greens of a rain-washed spring landscape.
Light linen carries its rejuvenating effect into every room of the house. The look of nubby linen slipcovers is timeless and classic, like a French country house. Even light woven upholstery on your dining chairs can transform your table and the entire room with a fresh new look.
Whitewashed, white painted, and bleached wood items likewise have a brightening effect wherever they’re used. A new coffee table, say, is an easy change that packs a lot of punch.
Ready to shed winter all around your home? Woven items speak of sun-drenched days to come! And wicker, seagrass, and rattan supply needed texture for light-neutral interiors that could otherwise read as too bland.
Baskets, for example, are the quintessential storage piece in every room. Use them for toys, towels, or by-the-door catch alls. Use baskets decoratively, as well, filled with arrangements of faux greenery or orbs.
Other elements of a seasonal refresh? Spring floral arrangements, naturally! Nothing says spring like a beautiful arrangement of fresh flowers, which always brings a sunny day inside. Get extra value with True Touch arrangements that look and feel like real and can be enjoyed year after year.
Finally, in spring we love to open the windows and allow those fresh spring breezes to blow through. When it’s time to close them, enjoy fresh, light scents from candles and diffusers, and dream of warm, sunny days ahead!
