    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The beginning of a new year often has us all feeling like starting off fresh by taking on better habits, getting rid of old ones, and—most commonly—changing up our look. While others are hitting the squats and going into the salon for a pixie cut, why not start slow and steady with a cozy winter manicure in a color that feels new to you? It takes only a little courage to step outside your usual OPI Lincoln Park After Dark or Essie Bordeaux, which is all you need to kick 2022 off on a fanciful foot.  From new wintry takes on classic dark nail colors to unique pops of color that'll have you feeling the opposite of boring, these are the best nail colors to try this January and tick off all the way into spring.

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    There's no denying how the pandemic fundamentally changed the world—including how we live (and work) inside our homes. An overall trend toward celebrating the history and originality of our homes is displacing ultramodern aesthetics and sharp lines as we all look to create cozier, colorful, more personalized spaces that better suit our lifestyles. We're turning away from big-box stores and toward vintage items—first, out of necessity due to supply-chain issues, and now, for design reasons—to add charm and character to every room in the house, including the kitchen. Here, interior designers from around the South share their predictions for what's trending in kitchen design for 2022 and beyond.

Starburst Wreath

Cut several sheets of red and white cardstock in strips lengthwise, varying the lengths and widths of the strips. Loop the strips, paste the ends together, and glue the longest loops together in a starburst pattern, alternating colors. Do the same with the medium-length loops and paste the smaller starburst on top of the larger one. Repeat the process with the smaller loops, gluing them in a starburst pattern and pasting it atop the other starburst layers. Paste a bit of blue fabric in the center, and top it with a white button pasted in the focal point of the wreath.

Bandanna Flag Wreath

For an easy DIY wreath that the whole family can help with, try this craft. Purchase red, white, and blue bandannas, and wrap them around a foam wreath round, alternating colors to mimic the design of an American flag. Be sure to knot the bandannas at the outside of the wreath so that the ends extend from the exterior of the wreath round. If you don’t have access to bandannas, you could also cut and use strips of red, white, and blue fabric to create a similar effect.

Break out all of those extra clothespins and put them to good use. Paint clothespins red, white, and blue. Add silver star stickers to the blue ones, and clip the clothespoins at alternating positions on a wire wreath form. Alternate red and white around the wreath, and cluster the blue at the top left of the wreath. You can also track down red, white, and blue clothespins at the store to avoid the painting step, making the DIY process even easier.

Mini Flag Burst Wreath

Purchase a bulk of mini USA stick flags and push them into a foam wreath form, alternating the direction and placement of the flags, so that the front and sides of the form are entirely covered. The goal is a cluster of flags, so don't try to be too neat about the process. After filling the wreath with flags, hang the wreath on the door and inspect it to ensure that none of the foam wreath is visible. Add more stick flags into the clusters if you need to in order to create the desired effect.

Add a hook to the back of a vase-shaped container, like this naturalistic hanging planter. Into the container, insert florist foam and bunches of white and blue hydrangeas tied with a red ribbon. Hang on your front door for a new take on fresh flowers for the entry. It’s as easy as can be! Add your favorite red, white, and blue flowers to personalize the arrangement.
