A drink cart can quickly be added to unused space to add interest and functionality. When choosing a drink cart for your space, keep in mind that brass is expected to outshine copper for 2018.
Rounded Furniture

Rounded couches and lush deep colors are the trend in furniture. If you enjoy bold design choices, velvet is a fabric choice that many are embracing to add a new design element to the room.
For major updates, resurfacing your existing countertops, walls, backsplash and floors to mimic these material choices is crucial for your home.
