How to conquer a transitional time for home. Survive the upcoming seasons!

Back to school can be super stressful coming from the ease of a structureless summertime.

Schedules seem to fill up over night, you're worried about easy meals and making sure you or your kiddo has matching socks for at least the first week of school. Decorating your home to your comfort level in this time can be a challenge. Some might say it’s not even worth it. And that just isn’t true! A decorated home is a happy and peaceful home. Those decorations do not have to be extravagant or expensive. At Trellis Marketplace, we are big fans of the in-between season or the TRANSITIONAL seasons in life for one major reason. Simplicity.

These are the times that you really don't need to do to much to guide peace into your home. Neutral pampas, soft dried flowers, easy leaves to rearrange in different areas of the home are key to having a sweet, soft whimsical presence, while still being able to play with structure and stability.

Some might roll their eyes at the plainness of neutral colors, but we look at them as a doorway to pulling those deep dark colors and unique pops of color in our home decor. Dried flowers, grass, and leaves bridge the connect from an easy breezy happy summer time to the vibrant, grounding, and assuring season the autumn brings us all.  

I was really drawn to this idea of how to find peace and productivity during what can feel like a weird time of transition. I kept coming back to the pampas that we have in the shop, not just because I am obsessed with this batch, but because these sprigs offer a friendliness to literally any space without breaking your wallet. AND you can use them through and through these upcoming seasons instead of flipping though home decor over and over and over again.

Keep it easy, simple, and sweet on your soul during a new time of change. Let us help you welcome these transitions with a sense of peace and grace.
