If you’re anything like us, spring cleaning can often turn from dusting and mopping to the desire to completely update a room or even your whole home. However, there are a lot of reasons why you might not want to invest in a complete redesign. Time and budget restrictions being two of them. What if there was a way to spruce up your space without breaking your back or the bank? Accent furniture provides a simple way to revamp your home’s look with a few touches that make a big impression. Here, Twin Star Home® offers a few suggestions for giving your décor a refresh with flexible accent furniture.
When it comes to sprucing up your living room for spring ,you could start with a new cabinet that gives you a place to store anything you’d like hidden from view. We recommend the Swedish Classics™ Wine Cabinet with Optional ClassicFlame® Infinity Electric Fireplace. It offers storage for wine glasses and up to 12 wine bottles. So, it’s perfect for anyone hoping to host more gatherings. For those seeking functional storage, the cabinet can be used to store kids’ coloring books, a DVD collection and more. If you choose the option of the electric fireplace insert, this piece offers a relaxing view of dancing flame effects. And, it supports a supplemental zone heating strategy for up to 1,000 square feet to keep you cozy all year long.
Or maybe a simpler bar cabinet, like the one pictured below is more your style. Its sleek mid-century style and water-resistant drop-down work surface make it a workhorse that will leave your friends raving. Its X-shaped divider creates storage for up to 12 wine bottles, while traditional storage with an adjustable shelf lets you make your space work for you.
No living or family room is complete without a coffee table, which should make a statement as your room’s centerpiece. One that will do just that is the Wright™ Coffee Table, which features an open design and a lower storage shelf to keep your essentials within reach. If you’re looking for a glass top, consider the Hamilton™ Coffee Table, which balances traditional and farmhouse designs and offers plenty of room.
Decorating smaller spaces can be difficult. You don’t want to create clutter, so every piece needs to make creative use of the space that’s available. If you want to reinvigorate a smaller space, consider a desk that works as an attractive accent AND an efficient workstation.
The multipurpose Swedish Classics Secretary Desk is a great example of furniture that pulls double duty. When it’s time to get down to business, a large surface folds down to hold your laptop, notebooks and more. Entertaining? Fold away the desktop and use it as a stylish sideboard that conceals everyday necessities in two spacious drawers. And with an integrated charging station, you can power up devices no matter how you’re using the desk.
Adding a wall mantel is another great way to bring visual interest to a smaller space without taking up too much room.
Choose one with a bold, statement-making look, and you can easily create an irresistible focal point for any room. Thanks to its eye-catching marble veneer and clean lines, the Carrara™ Wall Mantel makes a striking accent in living rooms, dining rooms, and family rooms of any size, including those where floor space is limited. It features patent-pending Spectrafire® 3D Flame® effect technology that allows you to choose between five customizable color, brightness and speed settings. When it’s too warm to require the heating function, simply turn on the flames for a beautiful, glowing touch.
Whether you have a dedicated room for your home office or resort to crowding the kitchen table, the right desk can make a big difference to your existing décor. And if you’re focused on fitness while you work, a standing desk might be more your style. Getting up during the day can help improve circulation and help you stay more active, along with a host of other benefits.
The Ashford Standing Desk finished in white and the Genevieve Standing Desk finished in waxy weathered pine make excellent choices. Both provide an innovative workspace for an active lifestyle and encourage healthy choices while you’re paying bills or working from home. Several USB ports keep you connected to essential devices while you work. And a GetActive™ timer reminds you when it’s time to stand up after longer periods of sitting.
When you need a combination of storage and style, a new bookcase will complete any home office. To keep it light, consider the Swedish Classics Bookcase, which is finished in white and features clean lines with six shelves to store your books, display family photos and more. For darker color schemes, the Wright™ Bookcase offers four open shelves for five levels of storage, and a striking look that fits perfectly with a variety of styles including contemporary and retro looks.
By incorporating these pieces into your décor, your home will sparkle in a way it never has before. Find everything you need to give your home the spring makeover it deserves. To learn more, browse ideas and inspiration to guide your spring refresh.
