There may still be snow on the ground and a chill in the air, but now is the time to start thinking about spring. Here are three decorative ways to freshen your home for spring.
Straight from the runways to your home, the gingham craze is hot. This classic check pattern has been a part of interior design for years, gracing homespun and elegant interiors alike. Gingham can be used in a variety of interiors and with other patterns for a crisp look this spring. Go for all-over gingham or mix it with floral patterns.
Use fresh colors of gingham to bring a bright new look to interiors. Spring greens, yellows and blues enliven a space. Vibrant red gingham looks great in the kitchen, especially when paired with red accents. Classic and fresh, try some gingham in your home this spring.
While those in Hollywood are taking golden statues home, you can bring some metal into your home as well. Right on trend, brass is making a huge comeback this year. The versatility of brass makes it a star in the home. From the rich patina of antique brass to the high shine of polished brass, choosing the right finish for your home style is easy.
Brass tables and stools add a nice sheen to a room. Brass fixtures and cabinet hardware freshen up a kitchen. Brass accessories throughout the home lend weight and brightness to a vignette. Brass lamps and lighting fixtures gleam beautifully. The classic brass bed is a must for those seeking a romantic bedroom.
Botanicals truly bring nature to your interiors and freshen up a space for spring. Prints, fabrics and live potted plants bring the outdoors in and provide a bright spot to any room in the home. The beautiful green symmetry of ferns look great framed or on upholstery.
Terrariums filled with mosses, ferns and herbs are a fresh addition to the home. Accents of mosses and other greenery add wonderful life and texture to a room. Botanical drawings and prints of flowers and herbs add a classic touch.
Eventually, the snow will clear and spring will come. Get inspired now for bringing a fresh new outlook to your interiors. Incorporate the classic styles of gingham, brass and botanicals into your home. Start small with accents and let those inspire you. Gingham, brass and botanicals really never go out of style. They are just making a strong comeback. Here’s to spring and the freshness of your home.
