New Decor for a New year
January is a time for setting goals and making plans for the
year ahead. The typical resolutions of losing weight or saving
money could be made a little easier when you feel proud of where
you live. You deserve a beautiful home. There are four easy
things to do - without spending a lot of money - which will help
you love your home.
A reasonable goal is to pick one or two of the suggestions below
and finish that project in the next month. Enjoy the year with a
fresh new look! These ideas can make a powerful impact on the
way you feel about your home but are cost effective and
affordable.
As you take down your tree or other holiday decorations - do
not place furniture back in the same location as it was
before. Try something new. Now is the time to change it up
and get a new perspective! Consider moving furniture between
rooms. Maybe a chair for the bedroom will look great in the den.
Maybe the den's leather couch can be switched with the family
room's loveseat.
Try to learn about and obtain some original artwork. A
pet peeve of many professional decorators (myself included) is
the mass produced art print. When I go to a client's houses, I
just cringe when I see the exact same artwork I saw last week at
a different client's home. Be original. It does not have to be
expensive. I have even seen some high school
student's art that
has been extraordinary. You can even try eBay by searching under
the phrase "self representing artists".
Purchase some new accent pillows. Really big this year is
pillows with textures and embellishments. Look for fringe,
braiding, beads etc. Don't get matching pillows but rather
coordinating pillows. Accent pillows can be added to just about
every room. Place a unique pillow on the spare chair in the
dining room corner. Place a new pillow on your bed. Maybe
something new to greet you at the back door bench. Think
intricate and lavish - not solid and plain.
The number one change you can make for the New Year is to
declutter. Go through one room at a time to sort into the toss,
sell or giveaway piles. Areas to declutter include old clothes,
food in the cupboards, expired medications, and magazine piles.
An important goal you can make is to declutter and give
yourself more space without building on a new room to your
home.
