Looking for Inspiration for the Brighter Months
Clear out the cupboards, bag all the winter woollies and prepare for that trip to the skip; it’s time for the spring clean to take effect!
Schools are about to reopen in March (fingers crossed) and the sun is making its grand return, so naturally this is where we start shaping up the home for the year ahead even if you are still set to work from home.
So if you are like a lot of homeowners looking to spring into action on the home front, what kinds of things can we look at to brighten up our lives for the year ahead?
Effective Mood Lighting
With the days set to get longer and we near that period where the sun stays out until 10pm, we find that we will not be using as much lighting as we have over the winter months.
This could also play a hand in your design by changing to some mood lighting or artful lighting pieces. As you won’t be using room lights or lamps as much as you were, you can choose energy efficient lighting or even candle lights when it does get dark, saving you some extra money through the summer.
Take up the Rug
Your rug has probably provided plenty of warmth during the cold nights, but as things get warm you won’t want that providing even more warmth.
Roll it up and store it away, otherwise if you no longer feel it to be a required part of the room you can look into alternatives. Carpets are great but hey take a lot of care, and no doubt they have had their fair share of extra attention in the past year due to all that time at home.
There is fantastic durability within luxury wood effect vinyl flooring that not only provides the comfort and style, but also greatly reduces those instances of clean up due to anti stain, anti-scratch and water resistance. It’s a relatively cheap option too, but not on quality.

Provide Under Stair Storage with a New Life
A lot of people tend to have that under stairs storage space as a place for shoes, coats, umbrellas and those boxes of items you just have not found a use for yet.
Why not find a unique solution for that storage space by providing it with an organised alternative use such as a small office space or a learning area for your kids. It sounds a little crazy but decluttering that area and installing a small desk in there with a chair can provide a unique space for getting your work done away from family activity or a room simply to hold Zoom meetings away from the usual distractions around the house.
Simple small ideas that play a big part in freshening up your home for the year ahead, from use of space to installing the cheapest Amtico flooring in the UK, and the best Amtico Signature and Spacia flooring, to saving on those electricity costs for the year ahead.
