Jump into spring with some bright ideas for your home!

Kitchen:  Re-do that boring kitchen island.  If it is too small make it bigger.  If it is too boring make it bolder.  Whatever your goal, the kitchen island should be a show stopper.  It is where everyone gathers, eats, cooks and lives.  Give it the attention it deserves.

Living Room:  Upgrade the basics.  Even stock cabinetry can make a statement with a few simple design tweaks.  Elevate the look of any cabinet by hanging them at different heights to create interest.  Choose surprising hardware in an unlikely material like leather, rope or fabric.  And, feel free to mix different periods – just lean toward classic colors in gray, black or wood.

Den:  Why not swap out the TV as the main focal point?  There is more to relaxing than watching Netflix.  Play around with interesting sofa layouts that encourage conversation and family time.  Add a big game table, music library or art studio.  If you make room for creativity – it will come.

Bedroom:  It’s all about the headboard!  There is no better way to accent a bedroom theme than with a headboard – be it wood, iron, fabric, canvas – you name it there is a way to design it.  And the good news is that headboards are a great weekend warrior project.  Even DIY newbies can tackle this easy project.

 Home Office: Don’t think the walls in your office are only meant for bulletin boards and calendars.  Get those creative juices flowing with color!  If there is one spot to make your own – it is your office.  Pick any color of paint or wallpaper that inspires you and get to work!  Mix it up with interesting lighting, a one-of-a-kind desk, and a super comfy chair and you can turn that once dreaded space into an escape!
