Spring is here! After what felt like one of the dreariest winters yet, there is no better way to brighten your mood than by adding some touches of spring to your home. From flower art to refurbishing old pieces, there are endless opportunities to give your home the much needed change it deserves. Spring is a time of rebirth outdoors. Bring the same feelings of renewal indoors with these spring decorating ideas.

Add a Pop of Color

Bring in pops of color to your bedroom by mixing in new light-weight blankets, throw pillows and other decor in spring-appropriate hues. Replace those dark, winter-themed accessories with Easter-ready pastels. Robin’s egg blue, soft green and yellow may scream spring but are also appropriate for the warmer weather months. Accent rugs are another easy and effective way to add color to your space. There are many cost-effective options, so you can even switch your area rugs out with the seasons.

Looking to add a new design style to your space this season? Bohemian-inspired decor is trendy right now. It relies on fun textures, colors and patterns that are sure to pop in your space and give you the spring update you desire.

Fabulous Floral

Using fresh flowers brings the beauty of the outdoors inside and is one of the easiest home updates that goes with April showers, May flowers and summer sunshine. There’s nothing like a sprig of forsythia in a glass vase to announce that spring is here. Any new bloom in a bright, festive pot is a welcome addition. Separating bundles of colorful tulips into small vases makes for a striking display. If fresh flowers are not your thing or are simply too hard to find, try incorporating faux plants. Placed on accent tables or on the mantle, these plants play incredibly well with the budding seasonal aesthetic.

Take your love for florals a step further by incorporating a show-stopping floral accent chair or floral area rug into your home. Accent furniture pieces tie the look of a room together. Choose a floral design that complements your decor while also adding interest to your space. The addition of a floral rug to your space is an easy and affordable way to create a bold change. Its floral motif can work well with both traditional and contemporary styled spaces.

Smells of the Spring

Out with pumpkin spice and in with the white jasmine and citrus candles. More spring-friendly scents burning throughout will have your space feeling fresh and uplifted as you transition to a spring-inspired home.

Wall Updates

Celebrate spring with different curtains, new wall art and inventive wall fixtures. Exchanging a few wall decor pieces here and there as the seasons switchover is a great way to make your room feel fresh and updated. Adding a beautifully framed mirror in your space will not only help bounce light off the walls but help add texture to your room as well. Still haven’t gotten enough florals? Wallpaper can make a bold yet beautiful statement in any room. Peel and stick wallpaper is a simple way to turn a blank wall into the perfect Instagram-worthy backdrop. Consider it a chic upgrade to grandma’s floral covered walls.

Let There Be Light

Lighten up your space with bold pastel lights such as yellow fixtures and decorative accents. Don’t forget to let the light shine in from the outside too. As spring has sprung and the hours of daylight increase by the day, it is the quintessential time to replace those heavy, dark curtains with a whiter and lighter alternative. Create a more open and happy space with more light!

Spruce up the Bedding

Spring is all about awakening, so it’s the perfect time to wake up your bedroom with some new bedding. Easily refresh your look by switching out your heavy winter blankets, throws and pillows with lighter weight and toned styles. The light and airy spring bedroom feel can be best accomplished through layering neutrals and light shades, like white and pale pinks. Neutrals paired with faux plants or wooden accents also scream springtime.

Rearrange and Repurpose

Work with what you already have. Repaint the walls or touch up a ceiling. But don’t stop there with spring painting. Make what’s old new again by reupholstering a piece of furniture in your home. Pick out a bright and fun spring-inspired fabric that complements the other elements in your space well. Not ready for a DIY project? One of the easiest ways to feel an update in your space is by rearranging the existing furniture. With only a few minutes of your time, it will feel like a brand-new space that you can easily fall in love with all over again.
