How to Make Your Space Feel Lighter for the
Spring and Summer Months
Pack away or get rid of excess clutter. A lot of people have a hard time getting rid of things, but pack away a few boxes of items you no longer use or like, and see if you miss those things after a few months. I think most people will realize they do not miss the objects and then donate the items to charity or pass some things on to a friend.
Change out throw pillows for lighter color ones and more lightweight fabric. It’s an inexpensive way to get a new look.
Bring in greenery with plants or flowers to let the outdoors in this season.
Purchase a lightweight and light fabric slipcover for a sofa or chair. It’s a great way to change the look of your furniture without the cost of replacing it and buying new.
