Welcome
to The Cosy Corner!! In these short articles we will be touching on some of our
favourite trends, ideas and solutions for all things home related along with
tips and tricks for landlords, tenants and anyone looking for inspiration
around the home.
With
summer fast approaching we felt it was only right to begin with our top 5 ideas
for getting your home bang on trend and summer ready!
1)
First things first, get rid of the heavy rugs, heaters and thick
blankets. Say goodbye to all things heat retaining and hello to light and
breezy. This will instantly give your home a summer lift.

2)
Replace candles with fresh flowers or green house plants to bring a
touch of the outdoors and a splash of colour into your home as well as a fresh
scent. Flowers are not only known for their beauty but also for their health
benefits. Having fresh flowers in the house is proven to increase creativity
and boost your mood. Try adding some flowers into the rooms you spend the most
time in to really make the most of those positive vibes.

3)
We love an excuse for getting our painting pants on! Summer is the ideal
time to take on redecoration projects as the sun and summer heat will dry your
home in no time. A fresh coat of paint is a brilliant way of giving your home a
bright and summery feel. However, trying to decide on a colour is always the
hardest part, right? Cool, neutral and muted colours are very popular this
year, especially the blues, greys and whites. These colours are very classy and
easy to accessorise so are perfect for any room. Many people pair these colours
with hardwood or wood effect flooring to give the impression of a bright open
space.

A tidy garden is an essential for all things summer. Dust off the BBQ
and get your gardening gloves at the ready. Having a clean and colourful garden
is the perfect setting for a family gathering in the sun. 2018 is looking to be
the year of ‘grow your own’. People are taking on the challenge of growing
their own fruit and vegetables.

We are also seeing many people embracing the indoor plant. Aloe Vera,
Cactus, and spider plants are only a few of the most popular for 2018. Along
with bringing colour and style into your home, these are also brilliant for
purifying the air, reducing moisture in the air and some are known for helping
to relieve stress!
