Holiday Countdown
Tuesday, 28 April 2020
With the run up to the holidays fast approaching, complete interior overhauls can feel like a daunting task amongst the never-ending to-do-lists. Instead, focus on these quick and simple mini-home makeovers in a collection of joyful festive hues and be holiday ready just in time for visiting family and friends.
Inspired by the rich dark green of winter foliage and forests, Mother Nature transforms any dining area into a sophisticated space ready for the festivities to begin. Work as an all-over colour or for a simple yet bold feature wall. Dress the table with elegant dark dining ware and white and grey accessories. Complete the look with a simple display of pine sprigs and cones.
For a speedy interior up do, restore tired furniture with a fresh lick of paint. To keep in the holiday spirit, Party Time is a perfect choice for wooden drawers and chairs. This cheery red is also a great way to bring a touch of vibrancy into neutral spaces. Opt for the much darker Blackwater blue for window bay benches and seating and bring depth to an all-white room. Add fairy lights and festive accessories for a happy holiday mood.
Make your guests welcome from the outside in. A couple of coats of paint to a faded front door will create an inviting atmosphere even before they come inside! This deep and dark blue grey is a timeless shade pairing beautifully with neutral and crisp white exteriors and will work all year round. Forest green wreaths and potted plants wrapped up in bright red bows will spread a little holiday cheer.
Get in the festive mood with these last-minute, pre-holiday makeovers. Whether refreshing worn furniture and doors with bright and bold colour or choosing the darker shades for feature walls and seating areas, you can create a welcoming home sure to be enjoyed by all!
