Spring is here and it’s time to lighten up!  We all know that a few simple changes like putting away the warm throws and changing the throw pillows from heavy, winter fabrics to lighter ones can make a big difference in a room.  But here are some other changes to help you lighten up for spring. 

• Change the color of the room to one of the pastel shades that are becoming so popular, like peach or even variations of pinks.  Or if an entire room is too much, then try an accent wall.
   
• Change the lampshades on your lamps to a color to coordinate with the rest of the room – but make sure it’s a color that makes you think spring!
   
• Try hanging a mirror across from a window to bring in additional light.
   
• Eliminate some of the accessories you’ve had on display, helping to create a more open feeling. 
   
• Cover a wooden table with springtime fabric (even something gauzy is beautiful) to lighten a room.
   
• Change your bedding to something lightweight (at least visually) and in the soothing colors of nature.
   
• Clean your windows to bring in more of the beautiful spring sunshine.
