Hey, 2023 – New Year, New Home vibes coming your way! 🎉 Well, kinda-sorta, you know what I mean. If you're ready to give your space a fresh twist in the New Year without breaking the bank, I've got you covered with 5 design tricks that are simple, exciting, and won't cost you an arm and a leg! Let's dive into the magic!

“A new home doesn’t have to mean a new house.”

  1. New Hardware, Who Dis? If your kitchen or bathrooms are feeling a bit meh, jazz things up by swapping out the hardware. Go for a unique or modern style – hardware has the power to set the tone, even in small doses. Turn that traditional kitchen into a modern masterpiece with this easy-peasy update!


  2. Statement Wall Slay: The statement wall is forever chic! Revitalize your room by adding one. Whether you opt for peel-and-stick patterned wallpaper or ornate wood trim in a subtle color, that wall is about to steal the show. Spice it up even more with new furniture pieces. And guess what? Your ceiling is a wall too, so go bold – paint or wallpaper it for a daring design move that's sure to wow!


  3. Linens and Things Makeover: Timeless alert! Elevate your bed experience with fresh linens. New sheets are always a treat, right? But don’t stop there – hit refresh on towels, pillows, hand towels, and curtains for an instant home rejuvenation. New colors, patterns, and textures in your drapery and pillows can be game-changers for the New Year!


  4. Love Up Your Walls – Gallery Walls and Art Overhaul: When was the last time your walls got some lovin’? Give your gallery walls an update or swap out your art pieces. Paint those frames a surprising color or go sleek and modern. Oversized matted frames are still rocking it in 2023! Move your beloved art to unexpected spots or go hunting for a new favorite piece. Let those walls shine!


  5. Furniture Tango: My personal favorite – rearrange that furniture! It's the easiest and cheapest way to breathe new life into your home. Protect those floors, slide around your big furniture pieces, and voila! Move things into corners, create cozy nooks with strategic credenzas or console tables. Step back, and you'll see – these small changes make the biggest impact.

Hey! Cozy season is in full swing, and I've got 10 design tips to turn your space into an absolute dream! Get ready for that warm, inviting vibe with that signature Abode Above touch!

  1. Warm it Up with Wood: Introduce warm wood accents, particularly in furniture like tables. Think rich, natural tones that bring the essence of the outdoors inside. The tactile warmth of wood adds a grounding element, creating an atmosphere that's both comforting and inviting.

  2. Lighten Up with Cream and White: Infuse your space with the timeless elegance of cream and white elements. From walls to furnishings, these hues create an illusion of a brighter and more open space. It's like giving your room a breath of fresh, airy vibes that complement the cozy atmosphere.

  3. Textural Bliss: Dive into a world of textures that tickle the senses. Embrace the coziness of relaxed linens, the softness of faux furs, and the earthy charm of rattans. Layer these textures strategically, and don't forget to invite a bit of nature inside with carefully chosen houseplants, enhancing the organic feel.

  4. Hygge Heaven: Transport yourself to a state of pure comfort by embracing the Danish concept of Hygge. Soft textures, plush layers, and cozy corners define this aesthetic. Picture plush blankets, soft cushions, and warm throws—creating an ambiance that's practically a warm hug for your soul.

  5. Plaid Perfection: Introduce the timeless appeal of plaid patterns. Pair them effortlessly with leather and warm wood accents for a classic yet stylish look. Plaid adds a touch of familiarity and comfort, making your space feel like a haven of relaxation.

  6. Elevate with Exposed Beams: Elevate your space with the rustic charm of exposed beams. Whether real or faux, these architectural elements add a sense of grandeur and character to your surroundings. They bring a touch of history and craftsmanship, making your space feel uniquely inviting.

  7. Faux Fur Magic: Create a cocoon of warmth with faux fur. Drape blankets and add plush textures to your seating areas. It's not just about visual warmth; the tactile sensation of faux fur adds a luxurious and indulgent layer, making your space irresistibly cozy.

  8. Bed Linens Upgrade: Elevate your sleep sanctuary by switching to heavier bed linens. Opt for a white or cream color palette to create a serene and tranquil sleeping environment. Top it off with a chunky knit throw blanket for an autumnal touch that beckons you to snuggle in.

  9. Seasonal Accents: Pay attention to the details by incorporating seasonal accents. Think pumpkins, foliage-patterned pillows, and cozy throws. These small touches infuse your space with the charm of the current season, connecting your interior to the ever-changing beauty of the outdoors.

  10. Mantle Makeover: Give your fireplace mantle a seasonal makeover. Showcase your favorite cozy season decor and keepsakes. From scented candles to cherished family photos, this is the perfect spot to curate a display that radiates warmth and nostalgia.

Remember, the key is to have fun and let your personality shine through each design choice. Happy cozy designing!
