Tidy House Tidy Mind
Spring cleaning to mark the new season is another way to give your home a new lease of life. After the busyness and clutter of the festive season, it's time to bring on store and order with everything in it's place and a place for everything. Furniture from The Painted Furniture Company can be made exactly to suit the needs of the homeowner so if you need extra shelves in a wardrobe, more wine storage in a dresser or extra deep drawers in your desk, they can usually accommodate.

Choosing bespoke furniture also means you can make the most of the space you have available as Adam Brown, Director at company explains, "bespoke furniture is designed to match the specific space of your room, regardless of how previously unusable. This can be particularly useful in smaller spaces or rooms that are an unusual shape. Awkward nooks and crannies, like the spot under the stairs, might usually be ‘dead space’ but by commissioning a piece to these exact measurements, such as one of our low bookcases, you can turn it into a practical and beautiful feature of your home."

A Welcoming Entrance
Bring the Spring inside by creating an organised, welcoming hallway. We all know how hard this can be as this space is often used as a dumping ground for bags, shoes and coats but with a little effort you can create a beautiful, warm entranceway. "Sort through Winter coats and shoes, re-allocating those which are not worn often to upstairs wardrobes" advises Adam, "Try to sort through post at the end of every day and use designated bowls or drawers for keys. A console table or sideboard are great for providing storage in a hallway and will create a stylish look too."

A Restful Retreat
Everyone knows just how important sleep is and creating a soothing, relaxing bedroom goes a long way to ensuring a restful night. "Painted freestanding furniture is a great way to achieve a relaxed bedroom scheme and can offer huge versatility. Not only can you move furniture around to create different configurations at any time, but the furniture can also be repainted should your interior taste change years down the line" says Adam.

Blue is a popular choice for bedrooms, evoking feelings of calmness and serenity. Often described as a peaceful colour it's no wonder it's such a firm favourite, whether its a darker moodier shades or soft pastel hues. Adam suggests, "For a timeless bedroom scheme, we often recommend using a combination of natural wood, soft whites and crisp blues, then teaming them with natural materials in the form of accessories."
