Adding a decor trend or two each season is key to making your home cozy and current, especially if you’re planning to list your home for sale. Different than decorating for the holidays, here are eight trends for the season to make sure your home stays on the best-dressed lists this winter.
Deep Green and Burgandy
These colors are all the rage right now among interior designers, and it’s easy to incorporate these colors without a fresh coat of paint or buying new furniture. Try adding them in via accent pillows or placemats for an inexpensive way to up the chic factor.
Velvet
There’s something soothing about the feel of a nice crushed-velvet throw on a cool winter’s night. Velvet is also for great winter bedding, which is an easy way to give your bedroom a quick makeover.
Tarnish
Style doesn’t just apply to fabric choices. When distressed with just the right amount of patina, metals bring a soft glow perfect for winter.
Lanterns
Indoors or out, lanterns are all the rage this year. Try adding a few small ones near your front door or leading up the staircase for a bit of dramatic flair.
Candles
Another great way to add in the season’s colors, candles of all shapes and sizes add a touch of comfort to every room in the house (except the children’s rooms, of course). Classic scents, such as vanilla, pumpkin or apple, are great this time of year.
Divider Screens
Open floor plans are fantastic designs for most homes, but considering the current state of the world, it’s also nice to have a little privacy in your own home. Adding a room divider screen helps you enjoy the best of both.
