New Year Refresh: Easy Ways to Upgrade Your Space for 2025

Welcome to 2025!

A new year calls for a fresh start, and what better way to embrace it than by updating your home? Whether you're looking for trendy home decor ideas, smart lighting solutions, or budget-friendly interior upgrades, we've got you covered

1. Out With The Old

We know going through clutter after the holidays is not what anyone wants to be doing but it definitely will be worth it! This is the best place to start figuring out what you need and what you have hidden in the back of the closet that you definitely don't need any more. Start with one room or even a closet to make the process less daunting. Your space will be decluttered and more organized in no time and start the New Year on the right foot. 

Pro-Tip: Organize your space with multi-functional furniture and stylish storage solutions to keep things neat all year long.

2. Introduce a New Lamp

Lighting is one of the most impactful home upgrades. It instantly enhances a room’s mood, functionality, and style:

An easy way to elevate a space is by adding a new lamp. Lighting can really lift everything else around the area. We are a little bit biased towards lighting but it has been proven to significantly affect your mood. Warm light can be comforting and promote relaxation. Perfect for the living room, bedroom or outdoor space to create an inviting environment for friendly gatherings or relaxing nights with loved ones. We recommend the Lark Floor Lamp or our Ambience Incandescent String Lights for an outdoor space.

On the other hand, cool lighting can increase productivity and alertness. For the office or study room where you need to focus and get ish done consider adding cool lighting to keep you alert and increase mental clarity. We recommend our Libra Floor Lamp or Ezra Table Lamp which both have three warmth settings including cool. Our lighting can't keep you from scrolling on social media though so that's all on you.

Pro Tip: Already own one of our lamps? Upgrade it with our Smart Bulb which offers adjustable brightness and color temperatures, from soft warm hues to crisp cool lighting.

3. Upcycle Existing Furniture

Looking for an eco-friendly home refresh? Upcycling is a budget-friendly way to give old furniture a brand-new look. For an affordable, sustainable way to give a new life to a piece you already have, upholstering or staining can be a great solution. Stain your wooden furniture a different shade or pick a new color or material for your furniture to reinvigorate the piece. 

4. Rearrange and Redecorate

Not all methods have to cost money! Rearrange your furniture or pieces you already have from different rooms to switch up the vibe of your space without breaking the bank. 

Pro Tip: Move your couch to a new angle, reposition your bookshelves, or experiment with a new focal point in the room.

5. Liven Up The Space

Want a big impact with minimal effort?

  • Painting a wall or adding some wallpaper can be an easy way to add a huge impact to a space. Try a fun color or a pop of print to really liven up the space or use a neutral shade or subtle print to create a more cozy room. 
  • Adding a sculptural piece to a room can really elevate your space. Refresh your space with some beautiful lighting that not only illuminates your home but also acts as a conversation starter.  We recommend our viral Saturn Floor Lamp or Nova Floor Lamp to create a statement. They both also come in table lamp form as well for a more subtle approach: Saturn Table Lamp, Nova Table Lamp.
