Freshen with paint and nature

1. Paint the walls a vibrant color (left). It's a quick, easy and inexpensive way to freshen up any room in your home.

2. Bring nature inside. Gather fruit, pinecones, beach glass, moss balls or stones and pile them in bowls.

3. Decorate in pairs to add balance in a room. Use chairs, lamps, sconces, vases, candlesticks or potted plants.
