Use this season of back-to-school excitement and approaching crisp days and
fall colors to inspire a home décor refresh. Here are a few ideas that even
busy parents and homeowners can do:
Celebrate the
students in your life with a back-to-school mantel. Gather materials you
already have–small globes, colorful school supplies and notebooks, vintage
books, trophies, alphabet stickers, even fresh apples in glass vases–and let
your imagination inspire as you arrange them.
Refresh an old
desk to create a new homework or home office work corner. Add a splash of color
to the work surface of an old secretary, or paint the entire desk in a bold,
bright primary color. An old industrial-style wood-top work table can be
refinished to serve as a warm and attractive desk surface.
Blend tactile
textures into your décor. Felt, wool, knits, velvet, leather, nubby linen–all create interest and warmth. Use different fabrics as small touches, such as
baskets or throws, or add texture as a larger statement, such as new window
fashions.
Just Right Blinds & Shutters can help you introduce
unique Hunter Douglas window treatment textures into any setting, plus provide
light control, energy efficiency and privacy. Consider EverWood Collection

and interesting new finishes, or Provenance Woven Wood Shades that are

and much more.
