Bring The Outdoors Inside

If you can’t get enough of the outdoors, there’s no reason why you can’t bring them inside. Expert decorators have been incorporating outdoor elements in home décor for decades.

Nature makes us feel refreshed, but it’s so much more than just displaying a vase of flowers (although we totally recommend it!)

Try using colors that are inspired by the outdoors, like greens, blues, browns and yellows. Accent pieces are a perfect way to do this. Think: throw pillows, blankets, rugs and ornamentals.

Entice your senses with outdoor cues like floral incense, decorative rocks, wood, wicker, seashells, jars of beach sand and even straw. Indoor water features work great too; anything to get in tune with nature is the best way to exercise this trend.

Front Door Makeover

There’s nothing wrong with creating a little stir on your block with some eye-catching curb appeal! And what’s more inviting than a beautiful front door?

The easiest way to change the look of your front door is a fresh coat of paint. But before you dive in, take a look at the rest of your house.

Is it red brick or brown? What color is your siding? What type of porch do you have? All of these factors come into play when deciding on a fabulous new paint color.

We’re all for mixing and matching tones, but use your best judgment. And if you’re unsure, ask a friend. It never hurts to have an extra set of eyes!

Stylish Storage Solutions

After all that spring-cleaning we know you’re looking for a stylish way to store those winter extras.

Our top pick for stylish storage is our very own Latif Accent Table in Sheesham/White. This solid wood, handcrafted table is trendy and has a spacious drawer with lots of room for storage—perfect for that bulky winter quilt.

The best part about this gorgeous wooden piece is that it’s on trend with bringing outdoor elements inside.

Bins are great too, and relatively inexpensive. We love the cloth-style ones because they come in every color imaginable and bring a beautiful pop of color to any room in the house.
