Welcome Back Blog Readers!
With winter fully upon us, we are
spending more time in our homes, thinking of things to do to occupy our time
and minds. We spend some of that time staring at the walls. And no doubt, we’ve
been thinking about how to spice up those walls for 2016. We all want to stay
ahead of the curve, so let me share with you some of the trends for this year.
Florals; we tend to think it’s
overused and been done too many times, but we always end up coming back to it.
That’s what so great about them; they are versatile and can be created in so
many designs and patterns that there is always something new. This year that
variety goes from classic vintage designs to the more contemporary.
Another trend I’m really excited
about is life-size art murals. Turning your walls into the art pieces
themselves. We all want something interesting to look at on our walls, so why
not make the walls themselves be that eye-catching thing. Plus, when your
guests visit, you have a ready-made, easy conversation starter.
The next three are each on the
more contemporary side, but can be infused with a classic flair as well. I’m
talking about geometrics, natural materials, and the exotic. Yes, bold and
daring and taking a risk. Geometrics, we all know what those are
All these trends, no matter which way you style them, will revitalize and bring energy to your home. It’s time to start designing, so come in now; and, as I always say, “don’t be afraid to decorate!”
Best,
Robin
