Do you love monsoons? Well, the long-awaited monsoons are finally here. It is that time of the year when all you want to do is sit in a cozy space along with a steaming cup of chai or coffee while enjoying the rain. While poets and writers have romanticized this season, we all know what more this season has to offer. Yes, we are talking about battling grey skies, gloomy rooms, dull ambiance, and musty smells.
Here’s a list of tips on how you can overcome the greyness and dullness in your house. We present you with some overwhelmingly beautiful kinds of décor ideas that you can bring into your homes. So, here are a few ideas that can help you add a bit of cheer without burning a deep hole in your pocket-
- Bring in some florals- Beat the dullness of the monsoon by bringing in some fresh flowers to add pops of color to your house. Plants bring positivity and give a glam look to your interiors. Add new vases to vacant areas or you can use old wine bottles or mason jars into planters and fill them up with gorgeous colorful flowers. This will give some fresh and eclectic vibes to your home.
- Add some scents of delight- As much as you love the monsoon season, it does leave a sense of musty smell behind. To combat the smell that comes along with the season is to light up some scented candles in your rooms. A scented candle followed by incense sticks will not only add to your home décor but will also do a great deal in enhancing and lighting up your mood.
- Swap your curtains- It’s time to do away with heavy double drapery curtains and invest in some thin, light, and sheer fabrics to enjoy the cool and breezy air outside. Double drapery curtains tend to soak up moisture and keep your home smelling musty. Sheer or lace curtains allow even thin sunlight to stream in, keeping the ambiance of your house cheerful, bright, and airy.
- Add a touch of vibrancy in your space- With grey and gloomy skies overhead, there’s no doubt your home is going to start reflecting the dull outdoors. Enliven your living space with some pop-colored cushions and throws. Swap your greys, blues, and dark hues for bright shades of peach, citrus, tangerine, and reds. Changing your cushion covers is the simplest way to keep your décor refreshing and delightful.
- Dry your damps in a unique style- The monsoons bring in a lot of drenched umbrellas and raincoats along with muddy shoes and dirty water that leaves a water trail in your homes. So to counter that, it would be great for you to invest in a cool and antique umbrella stand or a coat-hanger that will not only save you from a mopping cycle but also give an aesthetic look to your house.
- Add a whimsical note to your home- Who doesn’t love to listen to a soothing sound sitting by the window? Well, to enjoy the beautiful sound while feeling the monsoon season is the best therapy to uplift the mood in a minute. And, wind chimes can do just that for you. Wind chimes are soulfully pleasing and can cheer up the whole mood.
The above-mentioned ideas will definitely make a difference to the overall dull and gloomy environment in your house during monsoons. These changes are little but can make a significant difference in creating a happy ambiance. When you can, why not dress your homes according to the season, like, how you do.
