Brighten your home & your spirit Becka Miller

pring is finally showing up in Central New York after a long winter. Spring symbolizes life, it's the season of rebirth, joy and love. There is something about opening the windows and welcoming warmer days that inspire us to decorate. We are all experiencing spring fever around here and it can be tempting to do a complete interior design overhaul, but just adding a few spring touches is a good place to start. My love of faux or real flowers in my home designs will never stop, especially this time of year when the outside is still lacking vegetation. Bringing in greenery and color will give you the warm weather vibe we are all craving right now. Spring is also the perfect time to bring your space to life with some new paint, whether it’s a piece of furniture, cabinetry or your walls. After quite a few years of grays and neutrals. spring 2022 is all about color. Yellows, greens, orangey reds and blue are on trend this year. It’s the season of organizing and spring cleaning, adding a basket or two is a great way to reduce clutter and bring in some texture. Switch out your heavy linens and replace them with softer material and colors, put away your pumpkin spice candles and replace with citrus or floral scents. Just a few of these changes brighten up our homes, and hopefully our spirit. SWM Becka Miller is a home designer and the owner of Miller’s Crossing Design in Baldwinsville. millerscrossingdesign.com.
