Easy Way to Embrace Spring 2014 Trends

Keeping up with the latest trends in home décor doesn’t need to break your budget. In fact, it’s probably easier than you think.

Our pick for April’s hottest accent color? Luscious hews of green.

Incorporating this must-have color into your home will have you spring-ready and feeling refreshed in no-time.

Grab A Roller – April Means Spring Refresh!

Picking up a gallon of paint is one of our favorite ways to brighten a space. And with winter finally put to rest, we can concentrate on fun decor that pulls this must-have accent color into your home.

Not only is paint a budget-friendly option, it’s also one of the quickest ways to take a room from season to season. It’s not just for walls, either. Your leftover paint can easily be used to breathe new life into old picture frames, stools or benches.

Not so DIY-savvy? Our Clarkson bench in green is the perfect piece for style and functionality in your hallway or front entrance. (It’s also great for storing those little extras like keys, lipstick and sunglasses as you dash out the front door for your 8am meeting!)

Mirrors That Reflect Your Spring Style

Spring is all about growth and rejuvenation, so to mimic this light and airy season we recommend making use of lipstick mirrors. With its gorgeous pop of green, our stunning Mila Standing Mirror could be exactly what you need to liven up your home and play up April’s hottest accent color.

Mirrors are great because they bring a sense of open space and reflection into a room. Whether used as a focal point or clustered in a small group, they’re a must-have addition to any space.

Is there anything more peaceful than the sunlight reflecting off your mirrors as you sip your Sunday morning coffee? We didn’t think so either.

Cozy Never Looked So Good

‘Pillow swapping’ is every designer’s go-to trick for changing the feel of a room. It’s one of the most—if not easiest—ways to tie an accent color into your space.

Why is it such a go-to option? Accent pillows are relatively inexpensive and have the ability to draw your eye around a room, depending on where you place them.

Or if you prefer, keep your pillows the same and simply swap your pillow covers as the color trends change.

Another reason to love pillow covers? They zip on and off, which means those chocolate pudding stains (ouch) from your little one’s play date are as good as gone!

Whether you decide to go green for April or not, bold accent colors are a fabulous way to brighten any room and bring interest to your space. It’s spring! Have fun with whatever color you choose and don’t be afraid to take chances.

Do you have any tips on pulling accent colors into your home? We’d love to hear them!
