Tuesday Huesday: Closet Makeover

You’ve heard the saying before, out with old and in with the new, well that is what I think about during the spring season. Spring is the best time of year to do some necessary cleaning, purging, and organizing. One place in everyone’s home that could use always use a spring-cleaning, is the closet. Now don’t be ashamed, but be honest is your closet bursting at the seams exploding with clothing? If it is, you are long overdue for a closet cleansing. Some of you may just want to completely redo your closet, and start from scratch. I personally think every women dreams of designing her dream closet. The image above is of a closet I found on HGTV.com. It is amazing, and I love the colors used throughout. The colors make it a warm, inviting, and tranquil environment. If you do plan to redo you entire closet, don’t be afraid to add color. Be as adventurous as you wish, in your closet. It’s not just a closet; it is your own personal space. Hopefully one day I will be able to build my dream closet from scratch, but until then I will be pinning images on Pinterest of what I would like it to look like :) Have you ever redesigned your closet?

Tuesday Huesday: Accessorize with Colors

When it comes to decorating or bringing new life to a room many people immediately jump to painting their walls. While that is definitely a way to add color to a room, it is not the only way. Have you ever thought about accessorizing with color instead? Leaving the walls a neutral color, can give you a lot of variety of how you can decorate your room. Use blues, purples, pinks, whatever your heart desires. By using colorful accessories it gives you the option to change up the color in your room as much as you would like. The room pictured above is a great example of accessorizing with color. This room was featured on Better Homes and Gardens. Have you ever decorated one of your rooms with colorful accessories?
