Hey TWKL Family,

Happy New Year! There’s something magical about a fresh start, and that includes your home. Now that everything is (hopefully!) decluttered and tidied up from last year, it’s time to take things up a notch. Let’s go beyond just organizing and create a space that feels inspiring, cozy, and totally you.

Here’s your ultimate guide to refreshing your space for 2025:

Step 1: Define Your Space’s Purpose

A decluttered room is a blank canvas. But instead of leaving it empty, give each area a clear purpose. Think:

  • Reading Nook: Add a comfy armchair, a soft throw blanket, and a warm-toned floor lamp. Bonus points if you include a small side table for your coffee mug or tea.

  • Home Office Glow-Up: Keep it clean and simple with a neutral desk organizer, a plant for that fresh vibe, and stylish storage boxes to hide those random bits and bobs.

    Start your day with a cozy, organized workspace.

Step 2: Add Warmth with Colors and Textures

Decluttered spaces can sometimes feel a bit too bare—fix that with layered textures and subtle pops of color.

  • Cozy Cushions & Throws: Go for neutral tones but mix up the materials—like soft wool paired with lightweight linen.

    Embrace warmth and comfort with layers of cozy knits.

  • Accent Colors: A rich navy blue or forest green throw pillow can make all the difference without overpowering the room.

Step 3: Stylish Storage—Because Clutter-Free Should Look Chic

Let’s talk hidden storage. It’s the secret sauce to a sleek, clutter-free look.

  • Our TWKL decorative faux books aren’t just pretty—they hide your remotes, notes, or anything you don’t want out in the open.

  • Decorative baskets and trays are also lifesavers for keeping things tidy while adding a touch of charm.

Step 4: Create Moments of Joy with Small Decor Updates

Sometimes, all it takes is a few small changes to bring a whole new vibe to a space.

  • Wall Art: A mini gallery wall with framed prints instantly makes a room feel more curated.

  • Fresh Touches: Add a simple bouquet of eucalyptus or dried flowers for an effortless, chic look.

  • Mood Lighting & Scents: A soft-glow table lamp or string lights can add cozy ambiance, while a signature candle or diffuser makes your space smell amazing.

Step 5: Embrace Seasonal Accents

Make your home feel fresh for the season by swapping out small decor items:

  • In winter, cozy up your space with chunky knit blankets and ceramic vases.

  • As spring rolls around, add bright floral prints and airy linen touches to lighten things up.
