As spring approaches, a sense of change is in the air. Flowers start to bloom and a feeling of excitement grows as you begin to plan out warm-weather trips and activities. It is the perfect time to tackle projects like spring cleaning and readying your home for gatherings. Whether you’re dreaming of a revamped sunroom in West Essex or upgrading your window treatments in Bloomfield, now is the time to make a plan. As we find ourselves getting ready to say goodbye to winter and welcome in this amazing season, let’s explore some simple projects that will make you feel accomplished and not break the bank.

Adding a pop of color can truly invigorate a favorite space. When you aren’t sure about committing to a bright color on your walls, you can use bursts of color to make a big difference and transform a room. Have fun and be creative. The study of color psychology can provide insights into hues that will change both your space and your attitude. The color pink can lift your mood. Blue provides a sense of stability. Seeking tranquility? Opt for sage green. If you’re enamored with a specific color but are hesitant to devote an entire focal wall to that color, find your favorite hue and think about accent pieces. A decorative pillow, a print that can be framed for the wall, a throw rug, placemats, or table runners can give a space that eye-catching vibe to uplift your spirits. Consider drapes in a bold pattern that incorporates that shade and gives your room a finishing touch.

How’s your lighting? Look around the room you’re currently in. Has your lamp been providing loyal service for decades? Though it may seem bright enough, if your lighting sources are older, they may not be energy efficient or provide ample light for everyday tasks like reading. Upgrading your lamps can help. Think about where you need more light. Reconfiguring where lamps stand in a room may be enough to make a big difference. Swapping out traditional light bulbs for new LED lighting options for greater luminosity and brightness is a fast way to make a room feel alive.

Enhancing the natural light that enters your home with a change to your window treatments in Bloomfield, Livingston or Montclair can be just the spring update that you’re craving. There are lots of styles of window solutions that will still protect your privacy while allowing you to control the light that flows in. Solar screens are perfect for the warm weather months as they give your belongings UV protection as well as reduce solar heat gain and are energy efficient. Check out dual sheer shades to soften a room, giving it an inviting feel and allowing natural light to provide a mood boost.
