Fresh Digs
A pop of color can completely change a space and your attitude.
"Maybe your paint is looking a little tired," Berkus says. "I love a fresh coat of paint."

Get Inspired
Surrounding ourselves with inspirational images can be a great way to encourage breaking bad habits in your home. Plus, they look amazing!
"Inspirational black-and-white photos are a great touch," Berkus says.

Reflective Space
Creating a space in your home that is personal and allows you to reflect is important when transforming your habits and lifestyle.
"Use a comfortable chair by a window or a writing desk to create a space just for you. Make a space that used to cater to bad habits into a positive ceremonial area," says Berkus.
Get Outside (and Shop!)
You don't have to limit yourself to home-goods stores when picking out new pieces for your space. Summer is great for spending time outdoors, so try swinging by local estate sales for some unique finds.
"You can find great things at an antique store or estate sales. Try a unique piece of pottery or picture frame. Any horizontal surface is a chance to do something beautiful," says Berkus.
Lighten Up
As the weather warms up, put those heavy winter fabrics into storage and try something lighter.
"Switch out heavier pillows and throws, and replace them with something like ticking stripe or seersucker pillows, and a cotton or linen throw," Berkus says.
Musical Chairs
You don't have to break the bank to refresh your home. Switching around furniture doesn't cost a thing and can make a huge change in how your home feels.
"Rearrange your furniture. Trying pieces in new places is a way to break habits and the way we live, and that can be really exciting," Berkus says.
