My home is….comfortable. I’m not an amazing decorator, but all things considered, our home is nice. One thing that I always seem to forget-the icing on the cake of any home-is fragrance. Like style-guru Giuliana Rancic suggests, “If a room is gorgeously put together but lacks an inviting scent, the effect may fall flat.”
This is why I absolutely love the new Glade® Expressions™ Collection! It allows me to give my home that finishing touch of fragrance while adding stylish decor at the same time. The Glade® Expressions™ Oil Diffuser is the most elegant room fragrance product I’ve seen. The cream color diffuser adds the perfect decorative touch to the dark wood bookshelves in my living room, and the Warm Fuji Apple & Cardamom Spice scent adds the perfect flavor the deep tones of my living room.
The Glade® Expressions™ Fragrance Mist is equally home décor friendly. The refillable home fragrance spray comes in a sleek, stylish bottle that reminds me of a beautiful white vase, waiting patiently to be filled with fresh flowers. I love the fresh and clean, almost outdoorsy smell, of the Cotton & Italian Mandarin Fragrance Mist.
Want to know something super exciting?
Tomorrow night I’ll be hosting a PARTY for all my local friends to see the new Glade® Expressions™ Collection first hand. It will be a night of food and games. We’ll check out the cool new Glade® Home Style Studio app. It’s going to be a blast! Now, I know that most of you live much too far away to pop on over to my place for the party. Don’t fear! I’ll be tweeting and posting on Facebook live from the event so you can all be included in the excitement. Then on Saturday, from 11am to 1pm, I’ll be hanging out with the Glade® truck during its stop at the St. Patrick’s Day Festival!
**Please note, the location has been updated** The truck will be at Murphy’s St. Patrick’s Day Festival at La Villita (Presa and Villita St.), San Antonio, TX 78205 on Saturday, 3/17 from 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. I’ll be there from 11 am to 1 pm so if you’re in the area make sure you stop by, say hi, and check out the new Glade® fragrances and their Home Style Studio app!
Here are a few tips from style expert Giuliana Rancic about freshening up your living space:
- Add Drama to the Entryway. The entryway of a home is the first thing people see when they arrive so make sure it’s impactful! And did you know wallpaper is back in vogue? Updating the walls with a fun, floral or damask wallpaper or a painted chevron pattern will add visual interest and invite guests in.
- Fill the Air with a Signature Scent. To complete a room, add a signature scent with one of the four true-to-life fragrances from the new Glade® Expressions™ Collection. The fragrance offerings combine classic scents with an exotic twist and are available in two contemporary designs to complement the room’s decor and ambiance.
- Scent is Evocative of Personality. Select a signature scent for your home and use it as inspiration to update a room’s accessories – matching fragrance to the look and style of the room. For instance, if you’re drawn to more of a warm and spicy scent like Fuji Apple & Cardamom Spice from the Glade® Expressions™ Collection, try swapping out throw pillows for ones with bold and vibrant colors in an ikat print, or adding elements from far-away – framing an old European map or display vintage travel books.
- Engage All Senses. Sights, sounds, textures and scent all work together to complete the ambiance of a space. Try using soft lighting with lamps and dimmers to achieve a warm and inviting atmosphere. Mix textures in the room by adding comfortable elements like a soft throw combined with a modern, sleek sofa to add sophistication. Add dimension and keep the room warm with an understated, traditional rug.
- Bring the Outdoors In. Displaying live plants and flowers in a room literally make the space come alive! Lemon or orange trees, topiaries, or moss and herb pots – such as rosemary – have been everywhere, providing a natural pop of color and a nod to the latest trends from the natural world.
You can find the new Glade® Expressions™ Collection in the air care aisle of most food and drug and mass merchant stores.
