Living Room Refresh For Spring

This week as I put away the last of the Easter pretties, I did some refreshing in our living room to give it some new energy. I love ‘playing house’ and moving things around. Sometimes moving decorative accessories like vases and adding fresh flowers can breath new life into a room so you are instantly in love again. For this round of refreshing, I decided to go around the house and pluck anything turquoise and bring it in the living room for a look that says “Hello Spring!”.

One of the things that I adore in any room is a pop of fresh pink flowers. They bring a certain energy that plays nicely with almost any colour scheme. This ranunculus arrangement was a Homesense find and it has visited a few other rooms in our house as a decorative accessory. The turquoise tray was a another Homesense find, but was black and had a rather large rooster on it, so I up-cycled it with a two quick coats of turquoise spray paint.

 I  rounded up some turquoise pillows from some other rooms and added them to our brown leather sofas to lighten things up. And the two turquoise vases on the round table were Goodwills find that cost just $5! I love finds that are not only gorgeous, but also budget friendly!
