Spruce Up Your Home for Spring
Did you know that there are many ways to spruce up your home for spring? The first place to start is with your outdoor urns. Replace the evergreens with an assortment of spring branches such as dogwood, pussy willows and forsythia. Inside, consider changing linens, draperies, accent pillows and throws to brighter, lighter fabrics. If you feel like painting, the experts say that this year’s hottest colours are deep red, sunny yellow, blueberry and a gorgeous tropical orange. Lastly, bring nature inside with birch bark candles, fresh flowers and huge bouquets of blooming branches.
