Winter months can be dark and dreary. There are simple ways to bring light to your home and spirit.
We have hung lights over our patio that twinkle in the glow of the snow. These are inexpensive and easy to put up to enjoy all year long. They look beautiful on the fireplace mantel or around a hanging mirror too. I love little twinkle lights from Target Wondershop. Stringing them over your kitchen or dining room table, across your front door entrance, drape them over your bar cart, or on a shelf or table will enhance the room and create a cozy look.
Candles add lighting to your room beautifully and there are so many to choose from. I was given luminara real-flame effect candles as a gift for the holidays. They add such a realistic light as it softly dances that you will swear it has a real flame. They turn an ordinary day into a special event.
Remove the screens from your windows to let in unfiltered light.
Use brighter lightbulbs and switch out your lamp shades to a lighter brighter color for a nice change.
Buy bright pillows or light colored slipcovers for your furniture.
On another positive note, it's just 10 weeks until Spring.
