Preparing For Spring With Violet
Living in Wisconsin, I love the change of seasons. There’s nothing better than when the weather starts warming up here in the Midwest. With March almost here, now is a great time to start preparing for Spring.
This is a perfect time to give your outdoor spaces a refresh for the warmer months ahead. Personally, I love spending time with Violet on our deck and patio during the Spring, so this is the time I start thinking about preparing our outdoor space, so we’ll be able to relax and enjoy outside when the time comes.
As you're preparing for Spring, I want to share a few things to keep in mind when evaluating your outdoor space:
Evaluate your furniture: Does it need cleaning and/or do you need to upgrade or add more seating or accent tables?
Consider painting dated furniture black and updating with new cushions.
Adding an outdoor rug adds warmth and texture.
Clean and refresh all cushions and pillows; do some need replacement?
Add pillows with a new, fun accent color.
Add hurricanes with outdoor rated flameless candles for ambiance in the evening; many are available with timers and remotes.
Planters, planters and more planters! Evaluate planters for updating and add where needed.
Outdoor wall art and outdoor clocks are also a nice accent.
If you need help shopping, we offer many fun options on the shop tab on our website. If you see something you like, it’s easy to order. If you would like for us to curate a collection especially for your home, we’re happy to do that as well.
