Happy New 2017 ! When the Christmas is over and the tree is down, the decorations packed up, and the holiday china back in storage not to see the light of day until next November. When the excess of the holidays come to an end you can be left with a pretty empty feeling. Don't let the post-party depression seep into your home decor. Incorporate some of these friendly accents and keep that warm and fuzzy feeling flowing. Fill an empty corner You may prefer the alternate furniture plan you were forced to create to make room for your Christmas tree. So how do you keep it as-is and fill in the empty space left by your composted Douglas Fir? Try a potted tree appropriate for indoors. A fiddle leaf fig, ficus, or miniature palm are a great start. A sculptural floor lamp is another way to add some visual interest to a lonely corner. Make- over your mantle Do you love the layered look your garland, lights, and beads brought to your mantlepiece? Replicate these elements with art in varied scales, framed photos, candles, and decorative objects. Keep in mind, with all of the new elements you are introducing, editing becomes even more crucial. Be thoughtful with the pieces you are incorporating and make sure the happy layers don't turn into a chaotic jumble. Step back and continually survey the vignette from varying vantage points to ensure it's still projecting "effortless-style" and not "horder." Center yourself You may have opted to create a seasonal display in the center of your dining table where you normally have nothing decorative to speak of. Replace the dated centerpiece with a fresh take on dining decor with alternate greenery in eye-catching containers. Trying mixing small potted topiaries at varying heights or a collection of ceramic pottery with seasonal stems. Alternately, you could opt for a single sculptural object to occupy the space.
