New window coverings go a long way in refreshing your decor. There are so many new products on the market today that you don't have to be stuck with the old bent mini-blinds of the past. Now there are cloth shades of all types that let the light in but offer privacy to almost room darkening shades. They come in all colors and have an abundance of fabrics from which to choose.
Other items to consider when refreshing your home can be small things like new place mats for your table, adding colorful plates to match your dinner ware, new bed linens, throw pillows, wall art or adding a few new plants or silk flowers can add life and color to your rooms. A coat of fresh paint does wonders to update your home. Along with the usual spring cleaning chores, make sure that your windows sparkle.
Plant some new flowers near your front door to welcome your guests and spiff up your curb appeal. You'll be guaranteed to get the spring back into your home with just a little effort both inside and outside your home.
