Pretty Spring Pastels at Weisshouse

This spring IS all about color, but it's not just bold, saturated color that's getting every one's attention. Pastels are just as fun and offer a more relaxed, subtle approach for adding little pops of color into your home this spring. A few of our favorites include the following pastel colors: yellow, green (we are loving mint this season), purple and turquoise. Mixing pastels with neutrals like dune and gray offers a tranquil escape for the eye.

Check out a few of our favorite pastels (pictured) and stop by our showroom or visit our website for even more design inspiration. As always, one of our interior designers will be happy to show you how to "work" spring's hottest trends and put them all together perfectly!

A Happier Home in 2013

There are many things that inspire this blog. We find inspiration in design magazines, at trade shows, from other design professionals and many times, we are inspired by posts on Houzz.com. This week on Houzz, there is an article about ways to be happier in your home this year. Houzz shared 13 ways and we picked a few of our favorites and paired them with some pieces from Weisshouse to inspire you a little more!

*Follow your heart, not trends. It's fun to keep track of what is current in the design world, but when it comes to your own home, remember you are the trendsetter! Just because emerald green is one forecaster's color of the year doesn't mean you should shun your favorite muted pastels. Let this be the year you stay true to you.

*Mark your calendar for a big flea market or antiques fair. A great way to get inspired is to attend a well-run antiques fair or major flea market, such as Brimfield in Massachusetts, Round Top in Texas or the Alameda Point Antiques Faire in Northern California. Pencil in the date and invite a design-loving friend to go along. *If you aren't able to get away, save time and shop at Weisshouse for all of your vintage finds!

 

*Have something made just for you (and your house). Whether you live in your forever home or are renting your first apartment, having something made especially for you really makes your space your own.
