Start easy:

• Consider your living space. Could you move some furniture around to display your windows better? Changing up the room layout is a great way to add a simple change and utilize the space you have!
• Lose your blinds! The open window concept is catching on and totally fits for spring. You can keep them and just try it out for the season if you’re not sold on the idea!

Getting creative:

• Use something you have. If the material is light and airy, it will work great!
