If winter feels endless where you live like it’s feeling here, I highly suggest throwing on a pastel, short sleeve sweater and opening up a box of pretty pastel colored plates. I’m not sure if it’s the fact that the cold I’ve had for the past week is finally going away, the temperatures creeping into the 40’s today (a heat wave by New England standards at this point), or the sweater-and-plates combo that did the trick…but something shifted. Sometimes you don’t need a full blown seasonal overhaul. You just need one small, let’s call it hopeful swap. A softer color. A lighter layer. Home decor that makes you believe spring is actually coming. As a homebody who lives by the rhythm of the seasons, I’ve learned this: when the outside won’t cooperate, change the inside. Pull out the pastels. Light a fresh candle. Swap the heavy textures for something breezier. Even if there’s still snow in the forecast. Consider this your permission to decorate for the season you’re ready for…not the one you’re stuck in. cozyhome springdecor homesweethome LTKSeasonal LTKdayinmylife LTKHome
