5 ways to let the light in this spring
Spring is near, and there’s no better time to refresh your space and embrace the warmth and light that this season brings. As the days grow longer and brighter, we’re exploring five simple ways to breathe new life into every room of your home.
Embrace natural light:
Longer days are coming, so we better make the most of them! Swap out heavy curtains or drapery for lighter window treatments that allow sunlight to flood your rooms. Sheer drapes are perfect for adding subtle texture and privacy without blocking the light. You can also strategically place mirrors around your room to reflect and amplify the natural sunlight throughout your home.
Create a fresh colour story:
Spring signifies new beginnings, so why not infuse your space with fresh hues? This season our designers are loving greens, from sage to cypress, and blues, from mist to navy, each evoking a sense of renewal and tranquility. Accentuate these colours with neutrals like ivory, cream, and caramel for a cozy, modern look. Adding colourful elements through toss pillows, throw blankets, wall art, and faux foliage will invigorate your space and bring the essence of spring indoors.
Bring the outdoors in:
Just like how the new growth outside uplifts our mood and inspires us to welcome change, adding plants to our homes can have a similar refreshing effect! Whether you mix and match or opt for a collection of planters that suit your style, all that’s left to do is fill them with fresh blooms or everlasting and faux foliage. Look to windowsills, coffee tables, and empty corners as the starting place for your indoor oasis.
Lighten up your décor:
To capture the true essence of spring, it's essential to lighten up your décor. Trade heavy fabrics and dark accessories for lighter, breezier alternatives. Opt for lightweight throw blankets, flowy curtains, and breathable linens that exude a sense of airiness and freshness. Refresh your pillowscape with subtle floral patterns and light textures to add a seasonal touch.
Cleanse & declutter:
Before diving into any new décor updates, start by cleansing and decluttering your space. Spring is all about fresh starts, so take this opportunity to rid your home of any unnecessary items! Clear your surfaces, organize your belongings, and let go of anything that no longer serves a purpose. For any items that don’t have a home, utilize stylish storage baskets for larger items and trays to keep your tabletop clutter-free.
