5 Spring Refreshes that will Transform Your Home
Spring is such a special time of year, not only coming out of winter weather, but taking a new look on life and your lifestyle. Right now we are dealing with social distancing because of the COVID-19 pandemic and our children and families home from school, work, and our normal daily life.
What are your thoughts about how you'd like to live differently once we are back to normalcy? Has being home these past few weeks created a realization that you need more function in your home? Function also comes in the form of a pleasing visual space. So how do factors in our environment play a role in our mood state?
Something as simple as the decor in your living room is probably not the first thing on your mind as something that can make you feel uneasy, but our surroundings can help us feel more peaceful and positive, or can make us feel down, without you being aware of exactly what the reason is.
Following are some easy but impactful ways to refresh your living areas in time for spring!
1. Slipcovers for a Fresh, Classic Look
Adding slipcovers to your dining chairs is an easy and inexpensive way to change or add color and pattern to a space that has become dreary over the years. If you happen to be using your dining room as a temporary office or homework room, adding slipcovers in a cheerful fabric will also add function in protecting your dining chairs from crayon or coffee stains.
2. Refresh a Piece with New Reupholstery
Reupholstering favorite pieces that are showing some wear and tear will revive the whole the look and feel of the room. A floral pattern fabric such as Schumacher Indian Arbre Hyacinth Fabric on your favorite sofa will change the look and give you a classic pattern to last you years to come. If you have children I suggest a stain resistant Crypton fabric in a bright fun color, and add patterned pillows for a cheery space!
3. Cozy Cushions for Updated Seating
Refreshing the cushions on your chairs (or adding some) is a less intense change but can still be a vibrant option. You'll get comfort in addition to a fresh new look!
4. Seasonal Custom Pillows
Adding custom pillows in a favorite fabric is the easiest way to refresh the look of your sofas and chairs. Usher in the spring with a virtual consultation through us to find your perfect fabric, and custom pillows sent straight to you!
5. Window Treatments that Invite the Outdoors In
Notice your existing window treatments, maybe you've never done anything special or functional with them. Now's the perfect time to refresh by ordering in a new, fresh fabric that brings some life and color into your space! Roman shades, drapery, or even valances will add that layer of color, as well as filter light and heat as we come into the summertime.
Soaking Up That Fresh Spring Feeling
Even small changes such as new pillows, or adding new treatments, can completely change how you view your space, and live in it!
