4 Tricks that Make Your Dining Room Look Like a Million Bucks
Planning on hosting meals during the month of April? These decorating ideas will have your dining room looking upscale in no time!
Custom drapery looks far more luxurious than store-bought curtains that often look limp and lifeless. Going for custom drapes will give you more options on print and fabric content, and can be given an interlining, which adds fullness. Here, designer Miles Redd creates a lavish statement with turquoise silk drapery panels and a cornice.

By choosing one color to riff on throughout the space, your dining room’s decor will look as if you’ve made a decisive look with a distinct point of view. Be sure to vary the textures, and possibly throw in a subtle print like Jennifer Lopez did in her California home, to give the look dimension.

Adding a rug that coordinates with your dining room’s current décor is an easy way to amp up the luxe-factor in a dining room. It can hide stains or blemishes on the floor and makes the space feel more complete, like this dining area by designer Schuyler Samperton.

A large piece of artwork makes a strong impression. If you don’t have the budget to buy an original piece, opt for a large-scale print. We like how this dining room’s chairs echo the colors in the piece of art on the wall.

4 Ways to Transition Your Decor for Spring
Spring is almost here! Transition your home’s winter décor to something more suitable for the new season with these four ideas:

We tend to use heavier drapes in the winter because they help insulate from the cold. As the temperatures rise, switch these out with something sheer. This is a great solution for lightening up décor elements that don’t feel as geared towards spring. Here, the velvet sofa feels seasonally appropriate thanks to the airiness of the sheer curtains that let in lots of natural light.

Linen, a fabric that has a relaxed and casual feeling to it, will go a long way in making your winter décor feel right for spring & summer. Slipcover a few key pieces, like your sofa, and finish the look with a rug made of natural materials like sisal or jute.

Moodboard Monday: How to Soften Your Space with Pastels
Inspiration: Spring holidays are almost here! Pastel colors are synonymous with the season…budding tulips, dyed Easter eggs and goodies like Peeps & Jelly Beans have us ready to revamp our bedroom in their calming hues.
Get the Look: Because pastels are softer in shade, they’re super versatile. You can use them to color block, like in the blue room above, or you can just add a small dose with pillows. For a feminine take, use pastel painterly florals on drapery or make it modern with a geometric pattern, a hot trend for 2014. What are you waiting for? Hop into spring with some pastels!
