Neutral colours translate from fashion into homewares that create a calming environment. Sears House and Home expert, Cindy Jardim, gives us her top 10 tips that will make it easy for you to bring Spring indoors.
- Lighten up! Replace heavy draperies with light flowing sheer or cotton panels.
- Roll up heavy wool area rugs and replace with a sisal rug or, better yet, leave the floor bare and uncluttered.
- Introduce a fresh palette of bold patterned décor cushions.
- Paint one focal wall in a fresh green or calming blue.
- Replace heavy bedding with cool, crisp cotton linens.
- Change up your shower curtain to a fresh floral or stripe.
- Replace heavy throws with a light cotton throw in a fresh colour.
- Enhance that spring feeling with fresh tulips or daffodils in clear glass vases.
- Add a stack of all your favourite spring decorating magazines to your coffee table.
- And when it gets a little warmer, open your windows wide to let in fresh clean air!
