Let’s face it, most any décor pales by
comparison to the lights, garlands and
ornaments that festoon our surroundings
at year’s end. But the magic needn’t
disappear along with the tinsel and tree.
You can create year-round appeal by
taking your cues from the decorations
heading to the attic.
At their essence, they’re small doses of
luxury that hook the eye with pattern,
color, form, texture and sheen. So, in the
new year, turn to compact accents, paint,
wallpaper, touches of nature and light to
add beauty without bulk to your rooms.
While some of these solutions call for a
bit of elbow grease, they don’t require
deep pockets. And, just like those
twinkling strands of bulbs, you can easily
swap them out when the mood strikes.
