What better way to kick off this beautiful new season than with a thorough spring cleaning of your home? While this home improvement project may seem tedious and the last thing you want to do, investing just a little time and effort into restructuring your home into a more relaxing space is essential for spring.
Check out these tips to declutter your space, enhance your organization, and make a more comfortable home.
Avoid Overstacked Coffee Tables
While a popular interior design trend is to perfectly style your coffee and side tables with oversized books, soft candles, and stylish decor, too much clutter can shrink your space. Instead, focus on a few intentional pieces of decor that are more purposefully placed and won’t take away from the living space. Take advantage of furniture pieces with storage or more functional decor like trays, baskets, and entertainment centers.
Remove Unnecessary Furniture
Practicality and personality are the two main elements of design that will elevate your home to more luxurious living. However, unused and broken armchairs and coffee tables – no matter how stylish they may be – aren’t helping. So, take that extra step and remove those old, unused pieces of furniture and watch as your home feels larger and more open! Consider multifunctional furniture like cocktail ottomans that double as tables and extra seating to replace these less valuable pieces.
Reduce Throw Pillows
Have you been drawn to maximalism when it comes to throw pillows and blankets this past year, but suddenly wondering why you can never get comfortable on your couch, and your living room isn’t as pristinely designed as you would like? Choosing only one or two favorite decorative comfort pillows and throw blankets is difficult, but beauty is in intention. So reduce this overabundance and keep only what you most appreciate. If you have seasonal comfort decor, consider storing them in a closet until the season is right!
