Spring Refresh with Our top 12 Tips: Get a Sunny New Look through accessories

As Spring is upon us, we are reminded of impending changes with inspiration and renewal. Sometimes we need some fresh flowers 🌸 to reshape our perspective, wake us up, to remind us that blooms are the product of nature’s best work. The flowers of Spring are new to the world! And our world at home has a very different meaning right now. There’s no denying that our happiness at home is more important now more than ever, during this time of the virus crisis, we are all focusing on seeking calm, comfort and well being in our sanctuaries.

Now that we are home on hiatus, it’s also a great time to think of the simple joy of good vibes, good feelings, and good sunshine and and how we want our home to feel. It’s time to consider a Spring refresh at home! To me, nothing says Spring like freshly picked blossoming branches or simple grocery store flowers displayed in pretty urns and handmade vases throughout our homes  This beautiful fine art, handblown glass vase is just the right vessel to hold our fabulous floral finds. Here are a dozen quick tips to get you feeling Spring fresh, and in a new sunny season frame of mind!

Think of swapping out your decorative pillows and throw blanket on your sofa to add either a pale, multi-patterned, or colorful spring look. Replace darker colors and heavy textured knits with lighter year round texture and color for a quick refresher.

Now’s the time to hop to it! Add some greenery to your space with plants or trees.

Change out a dark area rug for a light abstract or natural sisal to give the whole room a lighter look. Be sure to show off some of your flooring around the room’s edges.

Remove drapery or dated window treatments to let in the sunshine!

Now is the time to declutter and lighten up. Get rid of the excess of collectibles and dust collectors. Place some away, and later, you can pull them out to exchange for another seasonal refresh time.

Edit what’s on your coffee table. Remove dark, heavy books or accessories, replace with some that match your lighter pillows, and focus on some stellar metal accessories that coordinate with your tones and add shine.

Add a new piece of art or a reflective mirror to dramatically change the overall feel of your entrance or dining space, especially in rooms with no natural light from windows.

Buy new sheets and bedding for your master suite in ultra luxurious fabrics to lull you to sleep. We are always a fan of crisp white bedding, properly pressed. Add extra down shams for comfort. Try a decorative blanket at the foot of the bed. Lighten up your floor, replace heavy wooden case goods with a touch of metallic nightstands.

Refresh your kitchen or bath countertops with chic, new or repurposed accessories, and add something shiny to reflect light against a tile backsplash. Clear your cooking spices by the cooktop and remove toiletries clutter on your bath vanity. Choose the nicest of your pretty bottles, and gather on a marble or a mirror tray.

Place new lamps in your living room for a new look, as lighting can be the jewelry to your space. Metallic and white feels right.

Add some personality, fun and reflect a sunny disposition to your home.

Interior Design can feel impossible for most! Choosing accessories to finish off each of your rooms can be overwhelming, take a lot of time, and be difficult to find. Perhaps you’re not sure about bringing in the appropriate accent colors, or you are unsure on the scale and size of what will look good in your space. You want unique, individual and alluring accessories, that represent you and your style, and that complement what you already have, but can’t seem to find it in the usual stores. You may have many of the big pieces all figured out, but you have not been able to bring it all together to feel like the home you originally envisioned.
