CORAL TONES<br />

Living coral or Pantone 16-1546 has been named<br />

colour of the year for <strong>2019</strong> – so this is something<br />

you might see creeping into interior trends this<br />

year. Think shades of coral, a vibrant and energetic<br />

colour – but don’t be alarmed it looks beautiful with<br />

simple paired back neutrals, a move towards the<br />

more conscious and sustainable. That’s where I will<br />

be taking it.<br />

EFFECTIVE ORGANISING<br />

This leads me nicely onto my<br />

next thought and moving<br />

towards spring. With the<br />

often-fraught ideas of January<br />

detox’s and decluttering<br />

programmes on the rise,<br />

think about what you really<br />

need. Organise your spaces<br />

accordingly and then give<br />

things a new lease of life<br />

– be it upcycling, selling,<br />

giving to charity. Don’t just bin, think about your<br />

environmental footprint when making decisions.<br />

START SMALL<br />

TOP TIP<br />

Don't be afraid<br />

to get organised<br />

and rehome your<br />

unwanted bits!<br />

Start tackling the small jobs that you’ve been<br />

putting off, you’ll find plenty of ideas and suppliers<br />

in here. Maybe you want to refresh the walls, re-jig<br />

the furniture to give your space a refresh or tackle<br />

outdoor spaces in time for spring.<br />

In my case, I need to get all my bulbs ready to<br />

harvest (hopefully) an abundance of fresh flowers in<br />

the next few months. I loved the little colour pops of<br />

hellebores and snowdrops earlier this year.<br />
