1. Embrace natural light
Throw open the curtains, let the breeze in and brighten your home decor. Open those blinds and bask in the natural light. Instead of flipping on your lights in the morning, pull back the curtains and let sunshine light the way. The simple act of opening your windows can help lift your mood, and you’ll save a little on your electric bill too. Don’t have big windows? By using large mirrors you can reflect light and brighten up your room.
2. Freshen up your furniture
A white, beige, or light gray couch is a perfect and cozy nesting spot. Light neutral chairs set the tone, reflect light and set a peaceful atmosphere. If you don’t want to commit to white furniture, invest in slipcovers that you can use seasonally and remove whenever you desire.
3. Incorporate natural tones
Incorporate lightweight natural materials into your decor — think wicker, woven baskets, light wood grain and cotton curtains. Keep it airy and light, leaning on nature to inspire you.
Switch out heavy blankets for light throws, and pack away heavy, dark decor items in favor of woven baskets paired with colorful or nature-inspired accessories. By adding earthy materials to your home, you invoke nature inside and out for a fresh and renewed feel.
4. Go green and breath fresher air
Adding potted plants, bouquets of flowers and herb gardens to your home is a great way to bring the outdoors in. Not only do they provide beautiful focal points and improve your mood, they also give off little hits of oxygen — so breathe deep.
Visit your local farm for pretty blooms, or grow herbs in windowsill pots. Also, faux plants can still give off a fresh green look, but without all the hassle and maintenance. Give yourself a new outlook and a fresh perspective by taking the time to revitalize your space and refresh your mindset. From mixing up colors to looking to nature for inspiration, you can powerfully transform your home into a sunny, bright and airy space.
