Updating Your Home For Spring

The interior design manager at Laura Ashley, Cathryn Archer, says:

Create a focal display of treasured items – use photo frames, candles and collectables.
Don’t be afraid to mix colours, textures and patterns; patterned cushions with a block colour sofa, for example, gives an instant point of interest and adds depth.

Use console tables to divide an open-plan room. Place on the back of a sofa.
Lamps and spots can define areas of your house and create a warming, traditional or contemporary feel.
