I love this time of year. The weather is getting warmer {sort of}, the windows are open {sometimes}. For some reason, every spring, I also decide that my house needs a design makeover. I want to paint, add new, more colourful, fabrics and switch up the accessories. Sadly, I can't redo the design scheme every year so I bring spring into each room in a few small, but effective ways.
First of all, I do a major spring clean. As a part of this I also edit the accessories in each room. Some get put in storage in the basement and others get donated.
I often move accessories from room to room, sometimes I even switch up the art or photography on the walls to make the room feel new.
My favourite way to bring the happy feeling of spring into my home is with the use of flowers. As I type, I can see out the window that my lilacs are just starting to bloom. Until they are ready, these gorgeous blooms are putting a smile on my face.
