Home Trends

From the color of the year to the new cottagecore, BHG Editors have their finger on the pulse and are eager to share the latest news in home trends. Our team of writers and editors are constantly browsing the latest furniture styles, pouring over Pinterest boards, and flipping through home magazines (like Better Homes & Gardens, of course!) to find what’s trending now. We don’t just report on trends, we predict them, too, as we have for the last 100 years.
