As each season arrives, it brings with it a fresh wave of energy and a sense of transformation. To keep your living space from feeling monotonous, it’s essential to reflect these seasonal changes within your home’s interior.
Updating your home’s decor to match the season doesn’t have to break the bank. Jeremiah Brent from HGTV offers practical advice on how you can refresh your space without spending excessively.
Jeremiah Brent and his husband Nate Berkus, co-hosts of “The Nate and Jeremiah Home Project,” are well-known for their love of regularly updating their home environment.
In a TikTok video, Brent shares that they frequently rearrange their home multiple times throughout the year. He emphasizes that small adjustments like moving furniture around, swapping out bedding, adding new scents, incorporating flowers or greenery, and decluttering can completely transform the look and feel of your home in line with the changing seasons.
Curating Your Space
One key piece of advice from Jeremiah is to focus on curating and rearranging elements within your space. He suggests being intentional about selecting decor items that resonate with the current season’s colors and textures.
For spring and summer months, consider introducing lighter hues such as soft blues or yellows paired with earthy greens. As fall approaches, transition into warmer tones like burnt orange or deep green. Winter calls for cozy shades like cranberry red or various greys paired with bright whites.
Additionally, switch up fabrics according to the season—opt for light materials during warmer months while embracing heavier textiles in colder weather. This approach can be applied across drapery, pillows, rugs—even lighting fixtures—to create an atmosphere that aligns perfectly with each time of year.
If buying new furniture isn’t feasible every few months (and let’s face it—it usually isn’t), simply rearranging what you already have can make all the difference! For instance: bring seating closer together during winter for coziness; spread things out more when summer rolls around so rooms feel open & airy again!
Refreshing Your Bedding
Another effective way to mark seasonal transitions is by updating bedroom linens—think fresh sheets & comforters! According to Brent: having different sets tailored specifically towards certain seasons allows flexibility when mixing/matching them throughout other parts too!
Choose colors reflecting nature outside—cooler tones work best during hot summers whereas richer ones provide warmth needed come wintertime… And don’t forget about material choice either: linen keeps things cool under sweltering sun while flannel ensures snugness against chilly nights ahead…
Layer blankets accordingly depending upon temperature fluctuations between day/night cycles – this simple trick helps maintain comfort levels no matter what Mother Nature throws our way next!
Adding Seasonal Scents
Scent plays an integral role in setting mood within any given room—and according 2 Jeremiah—it should never be overlooked when refreshing spaces at home…
During spring/summer opt 4 uplifting fragrances such as rose/lemongrass/grapefruit etc., whereas autumn/winter call forth deeper notes like cinnamon/vanilla/nutmeg etc., which evoke feelings associated w/ those particular times-of-year respectively…
There are many ways introduce these aromas into daily life—from candles/incense/oil diffusers right through electric scent machines available online today—all designed help create desired ambiance effortlessly whenever needed most…
Bringing Nature Indoors
Brent also loves using natural elements (like flowers/plants) add vibrancy indoors especially during seasonal shifts… Branches become particularly prominent once leaves fall off trees signaling arrival colder months ahead making perfect opportunity explore creative uses decorating purposes instead just discarding them altogether…
Chrysanthemums offer great option autumn not only because they’re beautiful but also act natural cockroach repellent too! Meanwhile roses/zinnias/sunflowers brighten up summertime spaces nicely whilst hyacinths/tulips/daisies bring cheerfulness back after long dark winters finally give way again come springtime once more…
By carefully selecting floral arrangements based upon color palette chosen beforehand—you’ll find yourself able achieve desired effect whether aiming something bolder/brighter OR calmer/more subdued depending personal preference overall aesthetic goals set forth initially…
Decluttering For A Fresh Start
Sometimes less really is more—and nowhere does this ring truer than decluttering process itself… As per Jeremiah’s advice: take stock everything currently occupying valuable real estate inside homes then ask yourself important questions regarding necessity/functionality before deciding whether keep/discard items accordingly thereafter…
If answer affirmative across board then item stays put otherwise consider donating Goodwill instead freeing up much-needed space future endeavors/projects down road later date perhaps even sooner rather than later who knows?
