The holidays are gone and it's a new year and you know what that means - a REFRESH!

While we love having our home decorated for the holidays, we love clearing it out just as much. After all of the stress from traveling from one place to the next, Christmas meals, and the exhaustion that comes once it's all done...it feels so refreshing to have a clean, inviting space.

We believe that refreshing your living room can be simplistic as long as you stick to a few basics. Our best tip is to not overcomplicate it!

Here are the top 5 ways you can give your living room a quick refresh (any time of the year!)

1. Throw Pillows

If you're looking for an easy and quick refresh, consider throw pillows. They're an easy way to add color or pattern to any space! We love to store away different throw pillows for every season so a refresh is quick and simplistic. 

PS: Tassel throw pillows are another fun option for adding some texture to your living room. Add them to chairs or sofas for a fun look that's sure to get heads turning! This one is our favorite.

2. Throw Blankets

Another way to add color and pattern is with throw blankets. They make great additions to your couch or bed, and are also great for adding some warmth on chilly nights! We love to rotate our throw blankets from room to room to keep an ever-changing fresh look! The Lilly Boho Throw is the perfect touch.

3. Candles

We LOVE using candles to give our home a lived in, intimate feel. Our LED Candles are great because they're battery-powered and can run for up to 6 hours! Try adding in our Finley Pedestal for a touch of elegance.

4. Vases

Vases can be used in so many ways—to hold flowers, candles, or other decor pieces. They're also a great way to personalize your space without having to spend too much time or money on it! Our personal favorite is the Joie and the Penelope.

5. Neutral Farmhouse Style Decor

One of the best ways I've found to refresh my living room is by using neutral farmhouse style decor pieces like wooden bowls & pedestals. Our Bradleigh Large Wood Bowl makes the perfect statement for your living area. And, if you love a good fireplace decor, our Makenzie Lanterns look great!

So tell us - how do you refresh for the new year? What helps ensure your space feels calm and welcoming?
