Embrace the coming season with
VIBRANT COLORS Submitted by PINE LEVEL FURNITURE
Spring is here. All the beautiful colors and sunshine are welcome. After a long, wet winter, it’s time to freshen up and change with the season. Whenever you rearrange or add new furniture or accessories, it makes you feel happy. Remember, there are no rules for this day and time. Express yourself and be creative. For instant gratification, purchase a new rug, add some throw pillows or use greenery or flowers to help brighten things up. Blues, grays and neutral colors are still popular at the store right now. Navy is always classy, too. Changing your wall color is also an inexpensive way to get a new look. Don’t forget that accessories can make

or break a room. Bigger pieces that make a statement are the way to go. Using big urns or large pieces of art can make quite an impression. Cocktail ottomans in all sizes are very popular right now. Consider one of those instead of a coffee table. They look great in your choice of fabric and are also very comfortable and functional. Lighting is always an instant boost to a room. Table lamps are so much prettier than overhead lighting and can make a room so inviting. Blue and white porcelain pieces are also making a grand comeback. They’re always beautiful and go with any décor. Going with today’s style, the more you mix the better it looks. It’s nice not to have everything the same. Traditional sofas can be mixed with farmhouse
accents. It’s fun to blend in some animal print throws or upholstered chairs in your room. The fawn print is popular, as well as leopard. More contemporary pieces of furniture or accents can give you a fresh, young look and make your room different from everyone else’s. Enjoying your home and being happy with your décor and furniture is very important. Express yourself and have fun. Sometimes, when you are trying to do your own home, it’s harder than helping a friend. It’s nice to have someone to give their opinion, but just remember, it’s your home and it needs to be what you like. Your home is very important to you and your family. Decorate it well.
