Decorate The Entrance A colorful storage solution at the entryway will help to avoid the gathering of excessive clutter. It will help to maintain a clean look, and also add a splash of color. Paint The Ceilings Painting ceilings with shades of pale blue, gray and beige is a good idea as it will add a layer of protection and introduce a pale hint of color. Reorganize The Bookshelves Wipe off the dust and reorganize the books according to subject and size. Place some of them in a horizontal position, others in a vertical posture to avoid monotony. Camp Stools Are A Good Option Camp stools have frames that can be painted imaginatively. Adding colorful cushions also add much brightness. Thus camp stools can be used to introduce a dash of color and patterns. Repaint Something Old An old brass chandelier can be spray painted in white to be given a fresh and new look. Other old items can also be repainted and given a fresh lease of life. Wallpapers Look Good Wallpapers on the inner side of bedroom closets always add some drama and color to normal boring brown wooden panels. The more creative the pattern of the wallpaper, the greater is the drama. Add A Touch Of Modernity If a room has traditional furniture, then add a different modern individual piece of table or chair that will add a quirky touch to your entire room. For instance, a steel table in a room filled with wooden furniture can have an amazing overall effect. Use Natural Things If you are planning to place a plant in the lonely corner of your living room, then ensure that it is real one, and not one made of plastic. Anything real has a very different overall feel compared to false plants. Spring is a season that is characterized by renewal. Hence, the best way to prepare your house for spring is to ensure that all items of renovation are thoroughly cleaned, old items repainted, and there are plants and flower pots to brighten up the space.
