Here are some easy tips to refresh your living spaces in the brand New Year!

Bring in some light:  A simple way to refresh any room is replacing your current lamp with a new one. A new lamp base or a floor lamp can transform the room and really brighten the entire space.

Enliven any room with a rug: You can instantly create a visual interest and add an artistic touch to any room with the help of a rug. Bring in new colour, texture and pattern that reflects your style and personality, while enjoying its comfort and coziness.

Add greenery: Indoor oversized pots with an abundance of greenery are always a wonderful, cost effective way to liven up a space. Cluster the plants in group, at varying different heights for an abundant look.

Reposition and reset: Rearranging your furniture is the greener, cheaper and simpler way to refresh your rooms. In just a few simple movements you can transform the ambience of a room and make a huge impact.

Luxuriate with new cushions: An affordable and gorgeously indulgent way to refresh your home for the new year is by adding new cushions to your seating areas. It allows you to introduce a new accent colour to your décor or rich, tactile textures, setting the tone of the whole interior.
