Monsoon weekends can get especially gloomy since travelling is difficult with an ongoing pandemic. Staying at home is recommended but that is no reason why the home cannot become a space for mini-escapades. Your interiors can be transformed by incorporating upbeat furnishings, artwork and decor accents as the home becomes an extension of your personality. Rearranging furniture as well as adding accents may both be implemented to boost the look and feel of your spaces. As the weekend is fast approaching, ED handpicks an assortment of essentials to freshen up your home and make way for holidays indoors!
