new season is a great time to give your
home a makeover, but if you can’t afford to
change the whole room scheme there are
still lots of ways to create a fresh look.
Different curtains or bedlinen, or even adding a few
cushions or accessories in new-season colours can be all
you need to update a room. Contemporary florals are
the big story for Spring, but forget fussy traditional
designs. The latest styles are bright and colourful and
are a perfect way to bring the garden inside. In the
kitchen, new china, glasses or even small appliances
such as kettles and toasters can make a big
difference but won’t cost you a fortune.

EASY SPRING
UPDATES
Spring/Summer
2010 brings a sense
of hope, fun and
creativity. Florals are a
key look. Brighten up
your bedroom with
Ren bedlinen by Linea,
a floral print with a bold
hand-painted look.
Or simply add a few
new cushions –
traditional floral
designs modernised
with a mix of stripes
and polka dots will
create a fresh look
for Summer.

Even small pieces, carefully chosen, can have a big impact.
We love these colourful cushions. Use one on a small chair
or throw masses onto a sofa for extra impact.

While being a
fantastic focal point
for any room, a
pendant light also
gives plenty of strong
light to a particular
area, for example,
over a dining table or
as a central statement
piece. When you are
choosing your light,
think about the size of
your room and the
ceiling height as this
will determine the size
of fitting and the cable
length you need to get
the right effect.

Instant MAKEOVER
Before you buy
anything new, try
rearranging the
existing furniture
in a room first.
Often simply
putting an old
armchair in a
different place –
and changing the
view for anyone
sitting in it – can
be all you need to
refresh a room.
▲ Paint just one wall
in a room to give it a
fresh feel. Then add
new accessories to
match the colour.

BEDROOM
Create a different
atmosphere in living
rooms or bedrooms
by adding accent
lighting. Try table
lamps in various
places around a
room to find what
you prefer. It makes
a big difference.
Collections of photographs
can take on a whole new lease of
life if you just change the frames.
Choose one colour or type of
wood and group
them together
for real impact.
Mix different
sizes for an
eclectic look.
▲ A few carefully chosen accessories in the new season’s
colours will instantly give your home a lift. Try adding
scented candles, vases or even indoor plants.
