Decorating Resolutions for the New Year

With the start of a new year, many people have resolved to do a number of things. From losing weight to eating better and even decluttering, people around the world have resolved to improve their lives in some way. What are you resolving this year? How about your home design! Making updates to your home gives you pride of ownership and can even increase the value of your property.

Resolve to commit to a color scheme. Deciding on a color scheme and sticking to it can make choosing furniture, flooring, accessories, and even lighting a simpler process. You can hone in on a color palette by choosing a piece of artwork, a print or fabric that you like and pulling colors from it. Use these colors throughout each room in your home to create a cohesive look.

Resolve to choose thoughtful pieces for your home. Decorating your home can quickly turn into a disorganized mess. Whether you’re purchasing items without careful consideration of what you already have or investing in expensive furnishings when you can make updates to the existing pieces in your home, a rushed design job never ends well. To avoid this issue, start by taking an inventory of the things you have in your home. Do they mean anything? Do they go with the overall style you’re trying to achieve? If they do, keep them! If they don’t, sell them or donate them to charity. Then, with a clear design style in mind, go forth and find the items that are going to help you fulfill that design.

Resolve to try something new! In the world of home design, there are always new trends coming out. It can feel a bit scary to step out of your décor comfort zone and try something new, but the beginning of a new year is the perfect time to refresh your home’s vibe with a new style you may not have considered before.

Resolve to never let a budget constrain your design. A redesign in your home is always a possibility regardless of your personal tastes, the amount of space in your home, and yes, even budget! Our designers have access to a variety of home décor items that fit a range of budgets, so no matter what your goals are, you’re sure to find the pieces that work for you. Sometimes, the simplest updates, like upgrading your window treatments, can make all the difference in your home. Never be afraid to update your living space.
