“Like many other hues, finding the right color means balancing the undertones of the green, as many read a little gray in the late evening light,” Barnes explains. Before you dispose of dishes, pictures frames, and even large furniture items that have seen better days, think about ways in which you can repurpose these pieces to add some new life. Saw down that dining table and turn it into the coffee table of your dreams, as Lance Thomas ofThomas Guy Interiors in Lake Charles, Louisiana, did in his own home. Pantries that prioritize function and maximize storage are something we’ve grown to appreciate even more in recent years. “If being under quarantine at home revealed anything during the pandemic, it’s how to become more organized,” explains Houston-based Sherrell Neal ofSherrell Design Studio. “The pantry is not just a junky storage room of dry goods, it’s how we plan meals, sort food groups, and make shopping lists.

Hand-cut pieces all have minor differences even if the patterns are similar as each artist adds their own little personal touches to each piece they cut.

Farmhouse decor originated from the rustic homemade style that was often used to decorate farmhouses using items that were readily available. When creating a farmhouse space, keep it simple and cozy while making sure you include enough modern comforts to help give your space a welcoming feel with all the comforts of home. If you don’t have a fireplace mantel to decorate, hang some garlands and colorful stockings from a wall-mounted shelf to create a focal point, like this living room from Arbor & Co. Wrap your ceiling beams with greens to give your Christmas decor a boost, like this rustic kitchen from M Starr Design that is sprinkled with greens throughout for a festive feel. Add a Christmas vignette to your sofa table to spread the decor around your living room, like this vintage Santa and Mason jar candle in a farmhouse-style home from Liz Marie Blog.
