When you display art in just the right nook or cranny it can transform the entire mood of a space. Imagine bringing warmth into every corner of your home cherishing a well-lived space that feels cozy. It might be obvious to hang art above your sectional in the living room or above your nightstand in your bedroom, but your home holds a plethora of other spaces you can dress with artwork for your home for a more modern comfort home.

Decorating a home is personal. You connect with the soul of a house and impart your own personal beauty to bring you joy. Home colors drastically change the look and feel of living space. With a little intention behind the color palettes you choose for you your home, you can bring warmth and comfort into all corners of your home.

I am not a fan of trends, but instead love spotting timeless ideas in fresh perspectives, and there are so many goods ones this season!
