Check out some of these home decor trends to freshen up your home for the year:
Fresh and green is in. Try pairing emerald or crisp green colored accents with neutral whites for a clean and refreshing feel.
Mixing textures, such as brushed brass tabletops to lamp fixtures, is a surprising but fun way to mix up your home’s look.
Muted colors, such as pale pink and gray, are an excellent way to still add a pop of color while preserving a neutral pallette.
Uniquely crafted furniture can add an appealing interest to the eye upon first sight. Add a uniquely crafted piece in areas that are easy to see.
Brass and bronze are hot items this year. Decorate with kitchen ware, table tops, counters, or light fixtures.
