Trend: Feathered friends
Whether it’s a colourful parrot or a sweet sparrow, birds are the animal of choice this season. We’ve seen them on everything from wallpaper to cushions in previous years and now the trend has grown to include bird-shaped lamp bases, vases and decorative trinkets to add some kitsch charm to your home. If you’re planning a spring-time makeover, dainty bird prints teamed with delicate florals will add subtle interest to even the most neutral of schemes. Then, when summer is in full swing, species like flamingos and toucans teamed with bright pinks, yellows and blues will make your home and garden feel like a tropical paradise.
