If you’re like us, many of your New Year’s resolutions center around the home – cleaning out those cabinets/drawers/closets, wrapping up that patio project, or finally figuring out what to do with that spare room. Whatever it may be, it can all feel a little daunting, with you left wondering “Where do I even start?”
That’s why we are going to take a cue from Kate Arends of Wit & Delight and opt for a simple home decor project that we can tackle right off the bat – a bedroom refresh. With her recent bedroom update, she showed how just a few changes here and there can go a long way to create a whole new look.
Here are some of the styling tips we picked up from her:

1 // First things first, get organized. Follow Kate's lead and use woven baskets to hide all your knick-knacks and doo-dads that clutter up your space. Trust us, you're way more likely to stay organized if you have a pretty place to store everything.

2 // Once you have everything tidied up, you can get to the fun stuff – bedding. If you are going for a whole new look, add a new duvet cover or bed quilt. Or, if you just want to make a small update, throw a new blanket at the end of the bed to introduce a new color or texture.

3 // Look for spots where you can bring some personality into the space. Maybe it’s a corner that needs an accent chair or a bed that needs a textured pillow – adding these statement pieces will instantly give your room a facelift.
