Three Simple Ways to Refresh Your Home

January 4, 2023 · In: Design, Interior Design, Living Room, Shopping Guides, Tips and Tricks

refresh your home

As we welcome in the New Year there’s no better time to give your home a refresh than the start of 2023! I’m so excited about all the upcoming adventures this year which I can’t wait to share with you all! Your rooms may be looking a little empty after taking down Christmas decorations so I hope this post gives you inspiration to brighten up every room again.

First, flowers and vases are key! I have found that the quickest way to ward off the post holiday blues is to fill my vases with beautiful blooms to brighten up any room. Vases are design statements on their own, and add calm and effortless style to a space. I always find some gorgeous flowers from local grocery stores which last a long time and are great quality.

Second, decorative lamps always look so stylish in the home and they are a great way to bring in a warm and cosy atmosphere – especially when taking the Christmas lights down! These are some of my favorite lamps that I found at the moment. I love a combination of modern and classic shapes!

Lastly, every home refresh needs some beautiful decor which will stand out in any room. I am loving minimal and monochrome pieces which are so trendy and help to make a room less empty or cold. Whether it’s art pieces, bowls or sculptures there’s always an area to place them to add a simple touch of style.

    I’ve been looking for a floor lamp that will light up and will light down for reading. I am surprised by how difficult it is to find. Help?

    You are so talented and creative. Your rooms always look amazing.
    I need some help with my living room. I sent 3 pictures of my living room, furniture arrangements. Not sure which one is suited for the room or what changes should be made. I would appreciate any feedback that you have. Thank you in advance Carol.

My bedroom door opens out to the deck (one of my favorite features a home can offer!) so I decided to plant a kitchen garden with citrus and herbs, figs and tomatoes… it’s become a private escape where I run to every morning with my coffee cup. I love how a garden can bring such calm and delight! XxV

Styling up a brunch date with the girls… I love Styling up a brunch date with the girls… 
I love eating al fresco this time of year! I’ve got some of my best girlfriends coming for brunch so I’ve set the table with some of my favorites from @thewhitecompany 
1. I always lay a charger down (it’s the foundational piece that helps pull everything together! These made of rattan really help bring a summery feel!
2. Next I choose dinnerware that will create depth and are perfect for serving! These are so creamy and the handmade quality of them is stunning!
3. Flatware is an opportunity to create interest! These made of rattan also add character and personality!
4. Coasters are an extra feature that gives glassware a little “umph.” I love adding these with the woven look because, again, they are really pulling my summery vibe together.
4. Don’t forget to add florals and candlelight for the finishing touch! I love using hurricanes so the flame is contained & and pretty rattan baskets with a glass of water inside Perfectly corral casual blooms. 
5. Finally, a favorite beverage, like freshly squeezed lemonade + sweet tea adds a special treat for guests!

I’ll leave all the links in my LTK (link in bio) & in my stories! XxV
