ON THE BRIGHT SIDE

You may think neon lights are too blinding or the neon dress you saw while shopping is a little too bold. But your home? Oh, it can handle some neon. Bright as can be, these colors are a brilliant choice for energizing a room or a patio (perfect for summer!). But don’t think we’re talking about your entire home flashing with neons circa 1983. No, we’re talking tasteful pops of neon (up to three in a space at max). Remember, it’s all about balance. Make sure you have enough neutrals to complement your neons. And once you’ve got that down, you’ve got one lively home. You can do it. Take a walk on the bright side!

ONE TABLE IN OR OUT

Today, we’re all about the Zinc Dining Table. It’s got versatility down to a T. If you like this table, you’re in luck. Whether indoors or out, it works. Mix it with indoor pieces to achieve a stylish space to enjoy meals. Pull it outdoors with a fun rug and pillows for a refreshing al fresco area. There’s even more pieces that can be used in your home or on the patio. So think outside (or inside) the box to create your perfect place to dine or unwind.

STYLED WITH THE ZINC DINING TABLE.

SHORE LOOKS GOOD

You don’t have to go on vacation to experience seaside serenity. (Side note: if you live by the beach, we are beyond jealous.) Pull in coastal accents like coral, sailboats and seashells to bring the beach to your abode. And colors of the sea? Make sure to use lots of blue with soft neutral shades… but hints of pink or orange can’t hurt! Mix in weathered wood, glass and rope too. This look can work in any home… even those by the beach count. It’s all about a natural, relaxed feel. So try it out. You may feel like a fish out of water, but don’t fret. Coastal décor is all about ease.

STYLE MADE SIMPLE: OUTDOOR LOUNGING

Whether it’s a patio, deck, porch or garden, your outdoor space needs as much attention as the rest of your home. You don’t want to be stuck inside all summer do you? That’s what we thought. So grab a dining or seating set, pull in some colorful cushions or throw pillows and add on the accessories to create a look that reflects your personal style (because an outdoor setting can be chic too you know). When created in the style you like, you’ll adore relaxing in the al fresco extension of your home.

WHAT HELENA WANTS

Our outdoor furniture is nothing short of beautiful thanks to our Seasonal and Outdoor Buyer, Helena. With the move from indoors to outdoors on the rise, it’s only natural to dream of a comfortable place to bask when creating or updating your outdoor space. So take tips from an expert outdoors[wo]man. She’s highlighted her favorites from this year’s outdoor lineup.

Martha Stewart Living™ Lake Adela Six-Piece Seating Set – The Surf color option for the cushions is very relaxing and the distressed wicker option is so on trend right now.
Grecian Urn Planter and Acanthus Urn Planter – Each are made of fiberglass and are lightweight. The sandstone and slate finishes are great additions to any outdoor space.
French Bistro Three-Piece Set – This rust-free, lightweight aluminum set is inspired by indoor French bistro chairs.
Follie Three-Piece Bistro Set – This is such a great value! It’s a fun addition to any urban or small outdoor space.
Martha Stewart Living™ Lake Carolina Six-Piece Deep Seating Set – The Smoked Natural finish option is so timeless and is an economical alternative to teak furniture. This set is suitable for those looking for traditional or transitional styled outdoor furniture.
Martingale Dining Table, Parsons Chairs and Open Weave Wicker Dining Chairs – This collection is like taking your indoor dining room outdoors. You can mix and match either the Parsons chairs or open weave wicker dining chairs with the rectangular or round dining table. The faux-wood top on the dining tables mimics actual wood grain too.
Emilia Three-Piece Seating Set – The comfort of the curved chairs and slim cushions makes this three-piece set a great choice for an urban outdoor space.
Madrid Collection – This is a big collection that includes a seating set, dining sets and a chaise lounge. I love its traditional scroll cast back coupled with the Bermuda blue cushions and contrasting chocolate piping. It’s a great choice for those that love a timeless, traditional design.
Brighton Cove Three-Piece High-Back Conversation Set and Ottomans – This is such a handsome collection. It’s great for a smaller outdoor space like a side deck. Plus, the cushions are made of Sunbrella® fabric so they can endure the weather.

SITTING PRETTY

Have a seat. We’ve got some chatting to do. A chair can come in all shapes, all sizes and all styles. Like a chameleon, this seat support has hundreds of looks… especially if you’re browsing our selection (just saying). A chair or two is a great solution for filling empty space like in a reading nook, next to the sofa or even at the end of a bed. You can even try two chairs next to each other in the living room as opposed to one sofa. And around a dining table? Well, that’s a no brainer. If you’re adding more than one to a room, mixing chairs of different styles and colors is a great idea too (we often prefer it!). The options are nearly endless. So grab a chair, and get started.

THRILL OF THE GRILL

With summer inching closer, the move from indoors to outdoors is becoming more prevalent. Tell your kitchen and dining room you’ll see them in the fall. It’s (finally!) time to get outdoors and enjoy great weather. Grilling (including the American pastime of barbecuing) is a true friend of summer. What is summer without it? The smell, the taste and the entire ambience will make you want to have dinner al fresco every night. So prepare the perfect patio setting complete with furniture to lounge on and dinnerware, and grab a grill from The Home Depot®. Dining and entertaining outdoors just isn’t as good without a grill.

AND THE LIVING IS EASY

Sometimes the most memorable moments are relaxing outside with friends and family (no technology allowed). Just good company, good food and a good break from the fast-paced way of life. Our outdoor lineup makes living the simple life – if only for few hours – even better.

Create the perfect setting for an outdoor barbecue or a girls brunch with our dining and seating sets. Pair with great cushions and pillows plus a few fun garden accessories. With lazy days upon us, it’s time to get ready for all that summer has to offer… why not start now? You can find us outside this weekend for sure.

Finishing touches are a room’s best friend. Like an outfit without jewelry, a room without little details just isn’t complete. Our favorite decorative knobs from The Home Depot® make the perfect finishing touches because in an instant you can dramatically change the look of a chest, end table or console table. (Plus, have you ever thought about how functional they are?) Revamp your furniture or even your kitchen cabinets by adding classic faceted knobs, or mix and match different styles for a fun look.

OWL TAKE IT

Who knew such a powerful bird could be so appealing? Owl décor is a whimsical addition to any room, from the kitchen to the bathroom to the nursery (imagine cute little owls mixed with soft pinks or greens – adorable!). These feathered friends fit in all decorating styles because their aesthetic varies tremendously. So no matter your taste, whether it’s traditional or contemporary, there’s an owl out there for you. Don’t be nervous to try this trend. Some of our wisest choices are made by taking risks…

WE ♥ MOM

Sometimes all mom needs to hear is how much she’s loved and appreciated. A gift so simple can make a big impact. So in honor of Mother’s Day, our staff is summing up what they love most about their moms in a few special words. It’s the least we can do for these momentous moms!

DIY FOR MOM

We all know shopping for the right Mother’s Day gift can be challenging. Deciding what she wants, what she would like or what she needs is tricky sometimes. So why not get creative instead? If you want to be mom’s favorite (and for those who already are), take time to make a gift she’ll really appreciate. We’re crafting a gift with just a few supplies that will bring a smile to mom’s face:

1. Gather your paper. For this DIY, we used some of our favorite pink paint swatches from the Home Decorators Collection by BEHR® line available at The Home Depot.

2. Cut out a heart. We used a template from the Internet as our guide.

3. Trace the shape on the back of the paint swatches.

4. Once you have all of the hearts cut and ready to go, find the perfect background.

5. We used one of our favorite rugs as the background and then carefully decided where we wanted to place everything before gluing it all down and placing the finished product in our Distressed Wood Frame. Your masterpiece is now ready for mom!

PAINT PERFECT: PINK

Pink can be described as feminine, fun and fresh. It’s a striking hue that will change the look and feel of any room instantly. But pink doesn’t have to be jarring or overly girly. Coral, a vibrant neutral shade of pink (yes, there is such a thing!), is a warm balance between bland and exciting. Pale pinks add softness and bold pinks, well, they’re a standout tone. One thing’s for sure, no matter the shade, this hue looks superb with beige, turquoise, grey, white and even gold… Get inspired by our pink paint palette and introduce the color into your home by completely submersing your room in the hue or subtly adding decorative accents.

Home Decorators Collection Paint by BEHR® is available at The Home Depot.

FROM AFTERNOON PINNING TO CONTEST WINNING

She’s well-spoken, classy and stylish. Tori Sodek, winner of our “Be a Guest Stylist” Pinterest contest, has a knack for decorating. Although we had a tough decision to make when picking the winner, Tori’s look stood out and turned into one beautiful bedroom when shot by our photographers. We interviewed her to learn more about her style and, of course, what all she’s going to do with her prized gift card.

1. We were big fans of the look you created for our “Be a Guest Stylist” Pinterest contest. What was your inspiration?

I wanted to achieve a bedroom that was light but still warm. I love layering traditional items like the crisp tailored bedding with more exotic, primitive pieces like the headboard. The area rug was my inspiration for the color palette.

2. Can you describe your personal style?

I think my personal style is casual yet classic. I love a cardigan or a great jacket with a crisp white button down and jeans!

3. How would your describe your interior decorating style?

My decorating style has definitely evolved over the last 20 years. When I was first married, I insisted that my husband get rid of his very traditional cream-colored camelback sofa so that we could keep my futon. (What was I thinking?) Fast forward 20 years and I have a very traditional home. I try to maintain the feel of that but with some modern touches, colors and finishes.

4. Which room in your home is your favorite and why?

Our kitchen is definitely my favorite room of our house. It is where everyone gathers. We remodeled it a few years ago, and it is light and bright with a huge bay window that looks out into our gardens. It is definitely my “happy place.”

5. What’s your favorite item in your home?

I had some built-in bookcases constructed in my living room, and they completely changed the entire look of the room. I love being able to change out the books and artwork I have displayed there. It keeps the room fresh!

6. How do you plan to use your gift card?

There are so many great items to choose! I am going to make a few updates to some of my existing furnishings and accessories and just have fun with it! I may also let my husband get a little something for his backyard retreat at The Home Depot®. He’s been really supportive of my home decorating choices over the years!

We’re still very excited about the room shot around Tori’s look. Check it out in our Early Summer catalog. And don’t forget to enter for your chance to win one of our upcoming Pinterest contests!

EARN YOUR STRIPES

Stripes can make the smallest of rooms appear larger and the shortest of rooms appear taller. And though it may be modern at heart, stripes can be infused into almost any decorating style with the right color, width/height and piece. Combining two or more colors together, stripes bring life to a space without making it too busy. And if you’re really daring, pair this pattern with hints of florals and other solid-colored accessories. Whether it’s with a striped pouf or a striped rug, there’s a striped piece to work in your space.
