Bring Spring: Lighten Up

Using white in your decor helps you believe that warmth is just around the corner. "Try adding crisp white linens to your bed, white throw pillows to the couch, and new fluffy white towels to the bathroom for a clean look and feel," says interior designer Marlaina Teich, owner of Marlaina Teich Interior Designs on Long Island, New York. "Add white hydrangeas with green leaves in a glass Mason jar on the bedside table. That will brighten up any morning."
