Who says winter has to be a whiteout?
Why not give your winter decor a bold burst of fun color that will not only brighten
your living environment, but will brighten your spirits too? We already know that the
seasons can directly affect our moods and emotions. Lots of folks complain of winter
blues and seasonal affective disorder (aka SAD or winter depression) during the winter
months. Believe it or not, some folks suggest that part of the cause of these winter
blues is due to the decrease in daylight from the winter days being shorter. I think
I have to agree with that! I anxiously await summer.
Whether you prefer to go for bold brights or rich jewel tones, I believe that adding
pops of unexpected color - especially if they contain unique patterns and luxurious textures - can help turn your mood around. Check it out!
