The sun finally made an appearance this week and with it a welcome rise in temperatures. With the sight of snowdrops and daffodils in verges and gardens and the clocks going forward next weekend it was possible to believe that Spring is just around the corner.
It might be a little early to turn off the heating but we can certainly think about emerging from hibernation and brightening our homes. There’s nothing like a bit a yellow to lift the spirits so here are a few suggestions as to how to use it in your home.
I love this toucan cushion from Scion. Not only is it a lovely cheerful yellow but the birds themselves make me smile. I wonder what they are saying to each other!
A knitted throw is always an easy and inexpensive way of introducing colour and texture to a scheme. it will also keep you warm if the temperatures drop. This throw from Dunelm has a pom pom trim and also comes with the option of a matching cushion. Perfect for the bedroom or your sofa.
This quirky foxglove design fabric in quince colourway is from Missprint. It would make great curtains or cushion covers. For a kitchen, it would look striking as a blind or table runner. The same design also comes as a wallpaper.
Word art is a simple way to ring the changes, this piece from Next is perfect for a hallway to welcome visitors but would work anywhere in your home
Spring means wildlife and nature and these make make great themes for a freshen up of your decor.
This bee patterned doorstop is part of a range of homewares from designer Sophie Allport and the beehive shape is perfect.
My final piece of advice is to add colour with fresh flowers such as daffodils and tulips
