Bring Summer Inside With Seasonal Colour Updates If you are finding that the warm weather just can't get here soon enough, then it may be time to take matters into your own hands.
You can make it summer indoors by updating your home colour scheme.
Though you may not have realized it, winter has undoubtedly crept into more than your bones.
Looking around your home, you may find that the harsh touches of winter are everywhere.
From hard white walls that make it look like a snow storm has erupted in the house to cool dark woods and deeply colored couch covers, a certain chill can permeate every room.
One way to block out the cold and enjoy a warm atmosphere is to look at seasonal colour updates.
You can start with simply accent pieces.
If you have floral arrangements in your home, you can switch them for a brighter summer arrangement.
Big and bold summer roses or brightly coloured Gerber daisies can start to perk up a room immediately.
Another option is cushions or living room furnishings.
Your sofas and chairs generally have removable cushions, so why not remove your dark matching pillows and replace them with contrasting shades from the summer palate? You will find that even these small splashes of color can change the whole look of the furniture and make you more eager to spend time at home.
A larger accent piece to look into is a rug for the floor.
Even if you have carpeting, you can bring in a large floor rug to mark off a piece of green summer in your home.
You can get solid colour rugs for simple colour, or you can get an outdoor pattern that creates a park-like atmosphere in the room.
Draperies are another element that you can switch over to summer.
Though you will want to keep insulation in mind if your windows are single paned, you should be able to find a brighter and lighter drapery arrangement to go with your summer theme.
More gossamer touches can let in more light, making the room seem warmer and brighter.
Warm weather may be months away, but you don't have to suffer unnecessarily in an enforced winter environment.
With a few seasonal colour updates, you can bring summer into your home early and keep it there all year round.
There's no reason to wait and shiver...
