In with the new, out with the old – or maybe not yet. With the new year comes redecorating and fresh change, but sometimes it’s nice to keep that holiday warmth going just a little bit longer while still adding some subtle changes.

ADD COLOR With colder weather come winter blues, so adding pops of color throughout the house is an easy way to brighten it up without starting from scratch. A colorful throw or cheerful pillow can transform a room from December to January, keeping it comfy and stylish all at the same time.

REPURPOSE Just because the Holidays are over doesn’t mean Winter is done entirely. Keep some of the greenery you have left over. Reuse shrubbery and pinecones by creating rustic bouquets and new centerpieces. Not only will they look great, they’ll keep your home smelling cozy and delicious!

KEEP IT BRIGHT Adding white accessories can give that open space a bright and fresh feeling consistent with that new year outlook. Whether it’s ivory or eggshell, shades of white can lighten up even the darkest of rooms, and, with the sun setting early, sometimes a little light can go a long way.
