Fun Ideas to Refresh Your Home for the New Year

The New Year is coming up fast, and it’s a great time to start planning your next home update. Whether you want to change out your décor for a trendier style or make a big renovation, home design trends in 2019 are all about adding color, richness and warmth. If you’re looking for ways to liven up your space with something new, fun and fresh, here are a few of our favorite ideas.

#1: Houseplants

It’s simple, but effective. A beautiful and easy way to refresh your home is to bring a touch of nature indoors. Add a house plant or flower bouquet to any and every space in your house. As trends move toward more natural and earthy elements, the simple and timeless addition of plants will add life to your décor (and freshness to the air).

#2: Velvety Textures

Velvet is a unique fabric that’s coming back into style. Luxurious, sumptuous yet eccentric, this material adds a sense of richness and mystery. Update your living space with a new velvet sofa or arm chair in a deep jewel tone such as navy, amethyst or emerald. A velvet ottoman is also a cozy choice.

#3: Copper Finishes

Warm and earthy, copper fixtures and accents are perfect for 2019. Give your kitchen a lively and inviting look by upgrading to a metallic copper backsplash or opt for a copper sink, range hood or pendant light fixtures that shine with coppery warmth.

#4: Fresh Coat of Paint

A new coat of paint can transform your kitchen, living room, dining space or bathroom in an instant. Dramatic, alluring, lush and earthy colors like hunter green, matte black, ivory, smoky blue and butter yellow are a handful of other hues that are sure to refresh and invigorate your home for the New Year.

#5: Quartz Counters

Many home design trends come and go, but the popularity of quartz kitchen countertops is showing no signs of slowing down. Ring in the New Year by replacing your outdated countertops with a fresh, brilliant quartz slab. Check out our list of top quartz trends of 2019 to find your favorite.
