Come Home to Peace and Tranquility

Are you looking for a peaceful space to escape the constant motion of the world around you? What if you didn’t need to escape to recharge, but simply had to come home. Instead of jet setting to a peaceful place, now is the perfect time to bring serenity into your space. It’s time to create space in your home that lifts you up, and let go of the elements in your home that are wearing you down. You deserve to come home to a space that invigorates and energizes you, readying you to take on another day.  Here are some tips for creating space and tranquility in your home.

Declutter. It’s time to take a deep breath and leave the multi-tasking to your furniture. The first step to enhancing the tranquility in your home is to minimize clutter. Storage is essential to achieve this, but think outside of your traditional storage avenues. Instead, storage and style unite to offer beautiful space savers that will enhance the beauty of your home and decrease the stressful clutter.

For the bedroom, built-in under the bed storage is a must. Stanley Furniture’s upholstered storage bed is the perfect pairing of luxury and function. Not only will this bed solve your bedroom storage needs, it’s neutral colors are exactly what you need to add a sense of calm into the space.

For the living room, light colored storage ottomans will solve your clutter issues, while also adding a calming and comfortable element to the room. Take a look at our Stickley Living Room Bodega ottoman.

In the dining room, move away from the traditional glass dinnerware display cabinets, and instead, use a closed or frosted-glass cabinet. This Global Views cabinet will help you store your dinnerware out of sight, and out of mind.

Remove distractions. Technology is an energy drain, but removing technology completely from your home is easier said than done. Instead of focusing on eliminating distractions, find ways to remove them from your sight when it’s time to embrace quiet time and recharge.

In the living room or family room, choose entertainment centers that can fully close. This way, when it’s time to relax and unwind, you’ll be less tempted to be distracted by your television. This beautiful piece from Drexel Heritage is a stylish addition to any room.

Embrace nature. Plants, rocks, stones, and wood elements are all great additions to add a feeling of nature to any room. Bring the serenity of the outdoors into your space by minimizing bright and alarming decorations, and replacing them with earth elements.

For your walls, think a simple, nature-themed decorative piece like this Birds on a Branch piece. Not only does this wall hanging incorporate a natural elm branch, but it is also customizable.

Embrace the little things. Every room matters, and while you may not be ready to take www.buyprovigilonline.com on an entire house cleanse, there are small and simple ways to add the feeling of serenity to every space in your home. One piece of advice — small vases of fresh plants in EVERY room. Global Views Rocky Block vases are ideal for air plants, which take little effort to maintain, and are topping trend lists. These small pops of subtle décor will remind you to stay calm, and that your happy place is in fact, at home.

Make Room for the New Year: Top Home Décor Trends of 2017

It’s been said that a new year calls for a new look, and nothing can be more true about home decor trends in 2017. This year, color, texture, elegance, and everything unique takes the spotlight, pushing out the old trends of 2016 and ringing in a fresh new start to 2017. So make space for 2017, because it’s here, and its stylish.

Jewel-Color Tones are the New Black.

This is the year to think beyond the traditional colors of home décor. Think outside of the out-of-date color boxes and imagine a more exciting palate of jewel-purple, blue, and green. Not only has the color palate made a big change in 2017, so has the use of color. While subtle pops and bright accents were a trend of 2016, this is the year to go big — beyond the accessories big. Make a statement with a color boost to some of your furniture center pieces. This Lexington Livingroom Barclay sectional has style fit for a king, and will add a modern, 2017 feel to any living space. And the color — to die for.

Lighten up with White Marble.

Leave the dark marble finishes in 2016. This new year, bright white marble is on the top of every home décor trend list, and for good reason. Nothing says elegance and class quite like a white, lightly textured marble finish to accompany the bright colors of 2017. Paired with a stylish and unique hammered gold finish, these Global Views living room cocktail tables are the perfect addition to your entertaining space.

Texture is all the talk.

Whether it’s cloth layered window coverings, rustic wood finishes, fringe, or geometric prints, texture is a big trend in 2017. The geometric pattern on Sherrill living room chair is both elegant and interesting. Uttermost Gold Star wall art can add some dimension to your vertical spaces, and play off the shapes found on your new Sherrill chair.

With Time Comes Beauty.

2017 is taking a turn from the DIY look. Instead, this year is one to indulge in the art of time and precision. Centerpieces in the new year should drum up a feeling of class and elegance. Let your art and accessories speak to your own style and class. Beautifully, and carefully-crafted blown glass artistry is on the trend list for 2017. Move away from the ceramics and into the art of glass. These amazing Global Views vases are a perfect centerpiece to move you into a year of style, art glass, and class.
