Celebrate the new year by giving your home a quick Pottery Barn style makeover
It’s holiday season, and after a year quite like any other, we’re in the mood to celebrate. For those of us who have stayed home this festive season, Pottery Barn are providing multiple reasons to spruce up the nest ahead of the clock striking 12.
Create a statement with mirrored surfaces
The mirror is no longer just a tool for looking at your reflection. It is a tried and tested tool used in interior design for adding layers of dimension to a space. While most of us have a mirror by the door, upgrading to one with high-style credentials is a way to make a simple statement. Using a full length one, like the Calvet Floor Mirror behind your console gives an elegant edge. And this multi-functioned mirrored drawer set adds a sophisticated practicality to a dressing table or bathroom.
Bold printed bedlinen
While 2020 had us dialling down the pace, 2021 is set to see a wash of bold prints and exciting styling out in full force. Switching up your bedlinen instantly changes the look and feel of a bedroom – which is nice way to mark the fresh start of the new year. The Emmalyn Chateau is perfect for those looking to create a serene, yet fashionable feel in the boudoir. But for those who want to go all out eccentric next year, we rate the Caroline red paisley set.
Craft evening ambience with candle holders
As the winter season takes into 2021, cosy candles lit evenings are here to stay – and make for a perfect way to spend New Year’s Eve with family. To do so in style, invest in some new candle holders that hold attention with their striking design – brass is a particularly strong colour choice at the moment. Use them as a dining table centrepiece, or as a coffee table decoration to ramp up the evening atmosphere.
Add some quirky tableware
If you’re planning to celebrate the new year at home with family, consider sprucing up your usual tableware with some seasonal flair. This quirky gnome cocktail shaker is perfect for making some celebratory drinks to ring in the new year with. For those who love to host, or who love to stack their coffee table with snacks, the Austin Tumbled Metal Serving Bowls make a perfect addition to your collection.
Ramp up the comfort levels with some soft furnishings
Bring some wholesome warmth to your sofa with a smattering of new throw pillows. Perfect for a new year’s eve spent hurdled around the TV, or for movie nights in during the new year, cushions are a quick and highly effective way to change a room’s look. Go bright with a selection of colourful cushions in clashing tones or opt for a more neutral palette, like this fluffy Love Sherpa pillow.
