Add Rugs, Plants, and Wreath
A living room with hardwood floors but no rugs looks naked. For visual and literal comfort, add rugs and plants. The texture a hand-tufted rug brings to a space makes it a focal feature all on its own. Houseplants are a great addition to any living room as they get a little bit of the outside indoors.
Rugs - Rugs with a more traditional design, bolder colors, and antique motifs enhance the spirit of holiday festivities. The rest of your furnishings can be pretty simple with a dramatic rug!
Plants - You can't go wrong with plants in your living room. Add more greenery, faux, or flowers for the perfect St. Patrick's Day decorations. Add a few succulents to shamrock ceramic vases - a cherry on top!
Wreath - It’s essential to make our outdoor spaces as inviting and visually appealing as possible to enjoy the March festivities to the fullest. The Spring's Shamrock wreath symbolizes good luck and makes a perfect choice!
