DECORATING for the seasons
With every change in season offers a new opportunity for homeowners and decorators to revamp their indoor and outdoor decor. From winter to summer, each season has its own colors and iconic designs that go along with it. Using these colors and designs in our homes help us get aligned with the seasons as they change. Whether there’s a holiday in sight or you just want to make your home a little cozier, seasonal decorating is a great technique to help us to connect with the time of year.
Getting cozy… or cooling down
In the summer you might feel the need for lots of natural light and fresh fabrics; in the colder months, however, you might wish for warmer interiors and textures. No matter what the season, AccuWeather can offer tips and tricks for those looking to tackle seasonal decorating.
Lighten up for the Hot Months
Summertime calls to mind the feeling for décor that is fresh and light. This means replacing heavy colors and warm fabrics. Even new light fixtures can give your space the right mood.
AccuWeather can match paint swatches and rug samples to the weather for the upcoming season. Matching colors like Sherwin-Williams Rayo de Sol for sunny summers, and Sherwin-Williams Oh Pistachio for breezy springs, can help connect our audience to the nature that surrounds us.
Fabrics and Accents Create Warmer Décor
Fall or Autumn is when the season starts to cool down a bit, but it’s also one of the most colorful times of the year! Look to the trees and nature for some color inspiration.
AccuWeather will be able to give their customers a full scope of the tree colors of the season. By predicting when the leaves will turn, we can best match colors for new home DIY projects and cooler weather renovations.
Outdoor Spaces
Whether you have a small balcony or an expansive backyard, outdoor spaces are great additions to any home. When decorating these kinds of spaces, it’s essential to take note of weather changes and conditions. Is the spot sunny, shady, or windy? Do you need waterproof and sun-resistant materials, or an umbrella or other shelter?
Pick pieces that fit the weather pattern of your location. Consider laying formal walkways, creating shifts in hardscape materials, or planting shrubs or trees to establish corners and borders.
By understanding the weather patterns of your location, AccuWeather can equipt its consumers with the tools and outdoor paints they’ll need to make their space dynamic and outdoor-proof. Earthy colors like Sherwin-Williams Whole Wheat paired with a vibrant Sherwin-Williams Rural Green can give your space balance and life, while having the durability to withstand the elements.
Bringing in some Life
One of the easiest ways to turn your house into a home is to add plants. Bringing in greenery can add color, shape, and life into any space. Use them as a major feature of the room, a last minute styling detail, and so much more.
Plants not only help us create a mood for any space, but also give us a good opportunity to take on home DIY projects.
AccuWeather will be able to give our consumers a scope of what decor and paints can compliment their greenery based on sun exposure, moisture levels, and temperature. For dense, dark shrubs, we might recommend a light Sherwin-Williams Natural Linen. For vibrant flowers, we might recommend a natural Sherwin-Williams Lemon Meringue.
Decorating for the seasons and bringing life into your indoor and outdoor spaces doesn’t always have to be difficult. With AccuWeather’s tips and tricks, any homeowner can make any space come to life.
