Coastal style is on the horizon again - a sure sign that summer's really on its way.
Interiors
Get the most from the coast
Orange crush
Be honest, if you could import a quick fix of sunshine into your home, wouldn't you seize it with both hands?
Decor fit for a queen
How you mark the Jubilee is a matter of taste. You could bedeck your home with bunting and roll out a red carpet, or you might want to celebrate more subtly with memorabilia and special pieces you'll always treasure.
Say it with flowers
If there's one message to heed for those following interiors trends this year it must be 'let it grow!'
Love outdoor living
Just saying 'al fresco' conjures images of informal gatherings and leisurely meals enjoyed outdoors, but it's all about the setting.
Cheap chic
We all want our homes to look wonderful but tight budgets can put costly furnishings and luxury homeware out of reach.
Sofa so good
Are you sitting comfortably? After a busy Easter holiday, it's common for households to send out a living room SOS.
Life in monochrome
Razzle-dazzle colour may be having its day in interiors, but do you really want to wear sunglasses to avoid the glare whenever you enter your home?
Vibrant vessels
A quick twitch of the net curtains shows that spring has firmly sprung, and with nature's floral bounty ripe for picking it's time to find a happy home for the daffs and tulips.
Cracking good style
Easter is a great excuse to feather your nest with themed decorations, handmade or bought, and all those personal touches will make family gatherings even more special.
Catch the de-clutter bug
If someone peered into your drawers and cupboards, would they be enviably neat and orderly or stuffed full of a spaghetti-style tangle of items that would take hours to unravel?
Make a clean start
There comes a time when you can no longer sweep that dirt under the carpet. The sunshine pouring in through the windows shows up the smears, and there's a level of dust that only Miss Havisham could live with.
