Did you love our recent taste of spring? Beautifully sunny skies, temperatures in the 60s…it was simply glorious, wasn’t it?! While our mini-spring only lasted a few days, it was wonderfully refreshing. Springtime has a way of livening, rejuvenating, and inspiring us. As you soaked up some sunny rays last week, did you find yourself dreaming up projects and ideas for your home? Were you wishing for a new look in your decor? Creating a designer home is the perfect way to add refreshment to your spaces and say hello to spring–which will soon be here to stay. Check out these tips and tricks from our design experts, and get started today!
#1 Incorporate Seasonal Florals
When it comes to creating a designer home, an easy way to begin is with flowers. Florals add organic beauty and freshness to any space. As you choose and arrange flowers for your home, make sure you consider the season. Using in-season flowers is the key to ensuring you have an on-trend look. So, what’s best for spring? Tulips and daffodils are classic spring choices. Cherry blossoms, willow branches, and grape hyacinths will also have spring bursting forth throughout your home. Or, simply pluck a few stems of whatever’s growing in your yard. Seasonal florals don’t have to be expensive or complicated to look gorgeous!

#3 Control Entering Light
There’s not much that can compare to the first glimmers of springtime sunshine. Those warm, glowing rays are so welcome after months of clouds and snow. But, when they come pouring into your home day after day–bringing unyielding glare, damaging UV rays, and uncomfortable temperatures right along with them–they fall out of your favor fast. Controlling entering light is key to creating an ideal atmosphere, and no designer home is complete without the right window coverings. Allowing you to maintain comfortable privacy and temperature at the window while soft, filtered light illuminates your spaces, the right window treatments set your plans for a designer home up for success. Plus, custom window coverings add incredible style to your spaces–and no designer home is complete without that either!
#4 Organize, Organize, Organize
As you browse pictures of houses that have the designer look you want to achieve, have you noticed what they all don’t have? Clutter. Sure, they’ve been staged to appear in tip-top shape for the photos, but there’s no doubt that a designer home environment is an organized one. Spring cleaning is a long standing tradition, so now’s the perfect time to declutter, reorganize, and get your home in order for the dawn of a new season and of a designer look in your home. Where do you begin? Well, take stock of what you have, get rid of what you don’t need or want anymore, and then find a place for everything else. Custom home organization is a great way to add ease, convenience, and designer appeal to your storage spaces. Everything will have a place, you’ll know exactly where it is, and your home will shine with a tidy appearance and personalized organization!
