The March Edit

 

Hey there, fellow sunshine lovers! Can you feel the excitement in the air? Spring is right around the corner, and we couldn’t be more thrilled! As the days get longer and the weather gets warmer, we’re itching to freshen up our spaces with some new interior design finds and things that we are absolutely loving this season.

March is the month of change, and spring is a season that is synonymous with nature. It’s no surprise that the great outdoors is always a source of inspiration for interior design. From pastel colors influenced by budding flowers and branches to botanical prints, there are so many ways to bring the essence of spring into your home. So, without further ado, let’s dive into our March edit and find some inspiration!

 

Paint in lighter tones this spring

Here in Central Oregon, we’re faced with many long months of snow and cold. As we transition from colder months into the bright, lively days of spring, it’s time to swap out those deep, moody tones for something a bit lighter. Pastels are always a hit during this time of year (but we like to think they can be year round), and we’re loving all the muddy versions of pastels. Think muted tones of pinkish rose rather than the soft baby light pinks. This color by Farrow & Ball called “Dead Salmon” (!) is a current fave. In fact, we plan to paint our daughter’s room this gorgeous hue to give it some new life. Stay tuned for more on this in future posts! 😉

Artwork, Wallpaper and Faux Branches

Botanical prints and florals are a must-have for any spring-inspired space. I love a series of vintage botanicals in a bedroom or bathroom. This one is just so pretty — several in a grid pattern is one of my favorite ways to install! There are so many ways to incorporate floral patterns into your interior repertoire. Whether it’s an accent pillow on your bed or a vintage botanical print, adding a touch of floral to your home will instantly bring in those springtime vibes and a sense of femininity. Have you heard of ‘grandma chic?’ How do you feel about it? I really like how Jean Stoffer brings in an element of old world with modern touches like lighting. This room is calling me for a nap in the best way!

CLOUZ HOUZ TIP: As always, an easy way to bring a touch of spring indoors is with faux branches. These are in my cart as we speak! I’m so impressed with the quality of any faux branch, holiday greens or flowers from Alfloral — look at these beauties below.

Furniture & Decor

Natural materials are another way to incorporate subtle spring vibes. Think woven baskets, rattan furniture, and light wood accents. Not only do they add a touch of warmth and texture to a space, but they also bring in a feeling of vacation and relaxed living vibes. Who doesn’t want that? No matter what time of year! Right!?

 

Our favorite March trends right now are all about embracing the changing season and bringing in those springtime feels. Whether it’s a new vintage piece or sprinkling in some floral fabrics with a new pillow story, you can dream up this space in a way that speaks to you. Dip your toe in with one of these ideas and let us know how it goes! Also, we have gathered some of our favorite items for you to shop the look, and of course, you can follow us on LTK here to stay up to date.

We hope you can take a look at our Design Guides. We created them for those of you who are asking questions like: “How do I make my home feel cohesive?” Or you are tired of second guessing decisions about styling and designing your home.
Our guides are chocked full of curated furniture recommendations for five different rooms (living, dining, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom) with over 100 shoppable pieces to help you create a space that feels not only right for you, but collected and complimentary. 
Whether you’re starting from scratch or refreshing a few key areas, these guides are a great place to start! Follow along @clouz_houz for more designer tips!
We’ve shared a lot about the move, but this next chapter is about what comes after. The messy middle and the part where we start creating again.
Our new house in Tennessee is officially under renovation, and we’re bringing you behind the scenes! Every step, every decision, every layer. This home will be a space where we can show more of what we do day-to-day: the design process, our approach to renovating, and the details that make a house feel like a home.
Client projects are still the heart of what we do, but home renovations have always been the other side of our story. From #HighDesertTumaloRanch to this new #SixthStreetBungalow home, we’ve learned that the process matters just as much as the final reveal.
We’ll be sharing more here and even deeper tutorials and stories over on YouTube (link in bio- our first video for this project will be hitting our channel soon). From design breakdowns to sourcing tips to the real BTS that doesn’t make it to Instagram.
Here’s to new beginnings, familiar chaos, and a home that is inspiring + testing us all over again.
Comment ‘LINKS’ and l’ll send you the best faux magnolia on the market (IMO).
We just moved, so my usual decor stash is slim (I’m knee deep in demo and boxes!), but when I’m in a pinch I will lie magnolia branches together down the center of a table for instant ambience and a festive touch.
l’ve rounded up the best of the best faux magnolia garlands for you to get this look throughout the season.
Drape on the mantel, sweep a banister, frame a mirror, or run down the table with a few tapers… done!

The bunk room at our Sun Valley Saddle House project is officially taking shape! Painting is done, carpet is in, and it’s finally starting to feel like the cozy retreat we envisioned (next up, wallpaper!).
What’s the single hottest tip for making a space feel cozy? Color drenching!
We color-drenched the walls and ceiling in @farrowandball Stifkey Blue, and layered in @stantoncarpet “Tattersall” which instantly warmed up the space. There’s something about that moody, cave-like feel that just works up here in the mountains.
We love designing bunk rooms because they’re where form meets function… practical for families or guests, but also the perfect opportunity to get a little fun and funky with color and pattern. This one’s already giving us movie night + ski weekend vibes.
So much is happening at this project right now. Built-ins, lighting, primary suite remodel, custom bar, and furniture deliveries are all in motion, and I can’t wait to share more soon.
