New Home Décor Trends for Spring 2018

In case you’re wondering, the first day of spring is just around the corner (Tuesday, March 20).

And if you’re thinking of refreshing and revitalizing your interior décor for the new season, why not bring the following trends into your home?

Copper frame

Copper is in; brass is out

In 2016 and a bit into 2017, many homeowners chose brass for things such as:

Light fixtures
Picture frames
Wall switch plate covers

However, it got to the point where there was too much brass around the house.

That’s why, in 2018, many DeSozio Homes families are opting for copper.

While copper has a similar look and feel to brass, it also creates a glamourous, old-world atmosphere around the house.

Additionally, copper is more versatile than brass. You can use copper for the items listed above, as well as for other things like tabletop vases or flatware (knives, forks, etc.).

Marble wallpaper

Love the look of marble?

Hate the impact it has on your bank account?

If you can’t bring a marble floor or countertop into your home, this spring’s hot design feature upgrade alternative is high-end wallpaper which looks like marble.

When done as an accent piece, marble wallpapers add a though of sophisticated elegance throughout your home.

Wall patterns are available in the most popular marble designs, colours, and styles, including:

Calacatta
Carrara
Statuario
Travertino Agento

With marble wallpaper, you get the best of both worlds; the look of marble without the excessive cost.

Acrylic

There are many reasons why acrylic will be very popular in spring 2018:

It’s easy to clean: Unlike materials like quartz, granite, or marble, acrylic is very easy to clean. All you need is dish soap, baking soda, and vinegar.
Available in many styles and colours: Whatever ambience you want to create in your home (earthy, classic, vibrant, bold, etc.), acrylic products can make it happen.
Mold and mildew resistant: Important in the bathroom or kitchen; acrylic is non-porous (meaning water cannot pass through or get caught inside out).

One last thing: If you happen to have a small space, acrylic frames, tables, and even furniture, can make it look and feel bigger than it is.

Growing vines

It’s always a good idea to bring clean air plants into your home to help purify the air and add a splash of colour too.

But, if you want to do something different, you can always bring climbing plants inside the house.

Now, we aren’t talking about thick, heavy, or hard-to-maintain climbing plants like English Ivy.

Rather, these are indoor vines that can fit into any home décor (just remember to prune, water, and care for them on a regular basis):

Philodendron
Devil’s ivy
Swedish ivy
Spider plant

Remember, when planting growing vines, they obviously need enough space – and something – to climb up (such as a lattice structure or climb down (from a hanging pot).
