There are many homeowners who like to be able to change the decor of their house or a certain room to coincide with the changing seasons.
You can start by changing the look of your chairs and sofa with slipcovers. Dark or velvet accent pillows that are used in the winter will look dramatically different as soon as you put them in light-colored cotton or linen slip-covers. Another good place to start seasonal decorating is with small accessories that can easily be stored away and brought out when the weather changes. For example, put away the dark candles and pull out white or ecru tapers when spring comes around. Roll up the dark cool oriental and put down a crisp sisal rug for a fresh summer look. Change your art-work. Dark-colored oil paintings can be replaced with light, bright watercolors or pastel drawings to give your living room a light, summery feeling.
