Whether it’s a small get-together in the middle of the summer or a large family gathering during the holidays, it’s never a bad time for a party. You’re ready to celebrate, but is your home ready for the celebration?  It’s one thing to buy refreshments and stock up on towels and sheets, but that’s only part of the equation. Taking care of your DIY to-do list keeps your home ready for any party at any time of the year.  Want an interior that’s set to impress your guests? Prep for houseguests and get ready to party with these six simple home improvement projects.    Start With Great Artwork  Art does more than take up space. With the right design and the proper placement, you’ll make any piece of art an instant conversation starter among your guests.    The best artworks have:    Bright colors  Distinctive designs  Interesting subjects  Thought-provoking meanings    Want to find an underrated masterpiece? You don’t have to be a millionaire to get great art. Everywhere from local galleries to your neighborhood thrift store has hidden gems that'll fit your home.    Update Your Light Fixtures  Little upgrades seem small, but they make a huge difference. If you’re looking for something smaller with a mighty impact, change out your light fixtures with help from our sister company, Décor Planet.    A new chandelier will bring plenty of beauty to your dining room, living room, or foyer areas. For an added sense of warmth and comfort, wall sconces or side-table lamps work great. Even a well-placed standing lamp can brighten the mood with the flip of a switch.    Replace Your Covers  Having guests over means having all the bases covered. So why not give some attention to the various coverings around your home? That includes your:    Register covers Outlet covers  Light switch covers  Slipcovers  Curtains and drapery    Reggio Registers has a wide range of metal grilles and electrical covers to match the style of your home.  Does your home have baseboard heating? Prevent rust and wear without sacrificing style with a Baseboarders® heater cover.  Shop Baseboarders   Check Your Shower Heads, Faucets, and Water Fixtures   You’ve got water, water, everywhere, but the fixtures are cramping your style. Thankfully, it’s easy to replace out-of-date water fixtures. Just make sure you:    Stay within your budget   Find a design that matches the décor   Take extra precautions during the installation    If you do these things, you're well on your way to a much-improved sink, shower, bathtub, or bidet.    And what’s a party without a few drinks? Impress your friends with a wet bar fixture that’s perfect for cocktail season. It’s an excellent place for mixing drinks, cleaning plates, and storing snacks for a smoother, livelier celebration.    Get a Larger Dining Room Table    Inviting all your friends and family together means plenty of memories, but often not enough space at the table. Treat yourself to a dining room table that’s fit for any occasion.   For a simple and stylish dining room table, take a trip to the thrift store or a furniture store in town. If you want something bigger, bolder, and built to your specifications, turn to Trueform Concrete—one of our sister companies.  They offer several concrete tables that are elegantly styled and available for customization, so everyone has a place at the table.     Shop Trueform Concrete   Add More Storage for a Smoother Stay  Do you have enough space for suitcases, extra snacks and drinks, and linens for the bedroom and bathroom? If the answer’s no, there’s no need to worry.   You can clear out enough space by:    Throwing away expired food or drink products  Donating clothing and accessories you no longer wear  Rearranging your closets, cabinets, and drawers    Still no space to spare? Helpful storage products like shelves, medicine cabinets, and stand-alone cabinets will make a huge difference.      A guest-ready home is just six steps away. Make sure one of those steps is a brand-new register cover by Reggio Registers. To get you started, here’s our guide for choosing the right register cover.    Register Cover 101

As we step into 2026, interior design is celebrating a bold mix of tradition, technology, and nature. Pattern trends have moved beyond simple decoration to become tools of storytelling, reflecting personal identity, wellness, and global influence. Whether you're designing a contemporary home, restoring a historic property, or curating a bespoke commercial space, the right patterns can transform every surface—including the often-overlooked vent covers. Here’s what’s trending in interior design patterns for 2026. Organic Geometry: The Shape of Nature Nature continues to influence interiors, but in 2026 it takes on a more abstract, artistic form. Think biomorphic curves, flowing lines, and soft, imperfect geometry. These organic shapes mimic the patterns found in leaves, riverbeds, and landscapes—bringing harmony and movement to any space. Try This: Reggio Register’s Duncan and Sunray and patterns echo these natural forms, offering a beautiful way to extend organic design into functional elements like vent covers. Digital Maximalism: Layer It On Gone are the days of minimal beige. Digital maximalism embraces vibrant layers, glitch-inspired patterns, and bold pixelated prints. This trend channels digital culture and Gen Z creativity—perfect for media rooms, playrooms, or modern lofts. Design Tip: Pair bold wall patterns with understated grilles in a clean finish (like black or white) to balance the visual energy while keeping airflow efficient. Textural Illusions: Patterns You Can Feel Flat patterns are out; textural depth is in. In 2026, interior designers are gravitating toward patterns that simulate materials like rattan, plaster, linen, or stone. These tactile designs evoke warmth and complexity, even on smooth surfaces. Inspiration: Combine faux-texture wallpapers or fabrics with vent covers in a metallic finish like brass or iron for a striking material mix. Heritage Prints Reimagined Classics like damask, Victorian lace, and art deco fans are returning with a modern twist. New colorways and oversized scales update these patterns for contemporary tastes. Perfect Pairing: Reggio Register’s square and deco patterns work beautifully in spaces celebrating timeless craftsmanship—from historic renovations to boutique hotels. Try Versailles or Linear B. Cultural Fusion: Global Inspiration at Home Designers are drawing from global artisan traditions more than ever. Expect to see hand-stamped motifs, zellige-inspired tiles, block prints, and tribal geometry from around the world. Customization Opportunity: Reggio Register’s custom fabrication allows you to echo these global patterns in vent covers—adding cultural richness to any design. Biophilic Influence: Wellness Through Design Wellness continues to guide design in 2026. Biophilic patterns—vines, leaves, tree rings—are increasingly present in wallpaper, tile, textiles, and metalwork. These bring a calming, connected feel to interior spaces. Design Idea: Choose vent covers in patina finishes to complement leafy or stone-inspired prints in a serene palette. How to Use Patterns in Your Space Start Small: Introduce bold patterns through accents—pillows, rugs, or even a statement grille. Balance Boldness: Pair strong patterns with neutrals or solids for contrast. Layer Thoughtfully: Mix patterns with different scales—a large floral with a small grid, for example. Use Unexpected Surfaces: Walls and floors aren’t the only canvas. Consider your vents, ceilings, even custom cabinetry panels.
