Adding a houseplant or two is an easy way to make the air inside your home cleaner. Some of the plants that work most effectively at cleaning the air include Boston fern, shown here, spider plant, English ivy, snake plant and peace lily. Some plants (like peace lily) are toxic to humans and pets, so be sure to check that you’re buying a pet-safe plant. Want to go beyond the pot? Consider adding a living wall of fresh green plants.

Paint Colors to Consider It’s always best to take some paint swatches home and find the color that looks right in your space, under the true lighting conditions (not in showroom lighting or on a glowing computer screen). However, to get you started, here are some paint colors to consider: Victoriana from Benjamin Moore Peignoir from Farrow & Ball (the company’s 2016 Color of the Year) Everything’s Rosy from Behr Unfussy Beige from Sherwin-Williams (a subtler version) Precocious from Benjamin Moore (a peachier version)

On a door. Want just a dash of Millennial Pink? Paint just a door this color to create an eye-catching architectural statement without overwhelming the room. Try switching out the hardware to something with a black or bronze finish for a perfect punctuation mark that completes the look.

Add layers of lighting. In this kitchen seating area, the backsplash is lit, the artwork is highlighted and the cabinet interiors are filled with light. One central lighting fixture would not have had nearly the same dramatic result.
