REFRESH YOUR LIVING SPACE IN THE NEW YEAR šŸŽ‰

December 30, 2017

Are you counting down to a new look in 2018?

Ā 

Whether it’s a New Year, the pull of spring cleaning or simply a change in seasons…rearranging furniture and a ā€œchanging of the guardā€ in your home is simple to do.Ā  A little imagination and thinking ā€œoutside the boxā€ can change the whole perspective of a room!Ā  And the best thing is – you can accomplish big changes without spending a lot of money!

Ā 

Upcycle those pieces taking up space in an attic or storage into a coffee table that now becomes the focal point of your room design.Ā  Change out an old and tired side table with one that adds a vibrant personality.Ā  Be bold with your choices!

Pure genius I’d say! Have you ever wondered what happens to those pallets after they’ve done their job? A bit of sanding, varnish, glass and industrial wheels create storage and re-purposed living room furniture! Photo: bild@mycasa

Once upon a time, interior design kept within a ā€œstyleā€ but now-a-days using a multitude of styles for an eclectic look šŸ‘€ is becoming the ā€œnormā€ for home decor. Mixing and matching pieces I’ve collected has always been my preferred design style. Photo/style: Emily Henderson

Every single one of us has a cubby hole or challenging space that we don’t know what to do with it! This cute indention is ideal for this simple table and collection of plants, baskets and artwork. Photo: Tictail

As we step into this new year… I for one plan on developing a new point of view (POV) in my design style – likes, dislikes, and even those ideas that have been on the fence for a while.Ā  It’s time to shake things up, put on some dancing music…and paint a new vision for 2018! šŸ’ƒšŸ»šŸŽØ
