Spring is on its way! The days are getting longer, and the air is fresh and a bit warmer.
Now is the time of year we give our homes a thorough cleaning after being stuck indoors during those gray winter months.
Once everything is spic and span, you may notice that your home needs a refresh. Now is the season to rethink your home from lighter accents to a fun DIY project.
Read on for spring decorating tips you are going to love.
Add Some Life
One of our favourite spring decorating tips is flowers and plants all around the house.
Add some life and colour to your living room, kitchen, and bedrooms with blooms that are spring fresh.
Here are a few blooms you can add to your arrangements:
- Tulips
- Daffodils
- Lilacs
- Lily of the valley
- Peonies
Arrange them in a variety of colours and heights for a dramatic effect, or add just a few to a small vase or jar for a soothing one.
Some plants can withstand plant lovers who don’t have a green thumb. If you are looking for hardy varieties, take a look at these plants:
- Pothos
- Asparagus Fern
- Peace Lily
- English Ivy
- Dieffenbachia
Change Up Your Color Palette
An easy spring decorating tip is to refresh your interior with pops of color. A simple swap of the dark winter accent pillows or throw blankets can give a room a bright new feel.
Bring back that old worn-out coffee table or ancient side table with a fresh coat of paint.
Stack colorful books to display a family photo, decorative box, or piece of art.
Liven up your doorways and windows with a crisp set of new curtains, shades, or blinds.
After the past few extremely tough years, popular 2022 color palettes embrace calming and relaxing hues.
Olive green, warm blues, and even soft pastels will significantly impact interior decor. Consider adding these hues into your home for a soothing effect.
An Eclectic Touch
Creative building and remodelling projects can be a time for your personality to shine. Mix and match furniture pieces, hang a textured or floral wallpaper or add that colorful rug to your favourite room.
When it comes to spring decorating tips, fill your home with items that you love and brighten your day.
Fragrance
One of the best parts of a changing season is the aromas linked with it.
Winter is peppermints, fir trees, and cookies baking in the oven. Summer is fresh cut grass and cookouts. Fall is apple cider, pumpkin & spice, and falling leaves.
This spring, add some of your favorite spring fragrances to your home.
Lavender, citrus, and new blossoms are just a few scents you may like.
Incorporate them into your home using scented candles, diffusers, aroma plug-ins, or sprays.
Indoors & Out
Most homeowners and renters love a blend of indoor and outdoor living. Enjoying these spaces is a trend we don’t see changing in the near future.
In the sun-filled days of spring and summer, make the most of your outdoor decks or patio space.
Shop discounts stores and garage sales for more affordable outdoor furniture and weather-friendly cushions and rugs.
Visit your local vintage stores for pieces of furniture that you can spruce up with a coat of spray paint.
For those who work from home, set up a spot in the shade for a change of scenery.
Kitchen
If that all-white kitchen is feeling stark this season, give it a whole new feel with these spring decorating tips.
Break up the monotony with a display of colorful glassware, dishes, or a serving platter.
Add some drama with a deep layer of paint for the base of your island or cabinet doors.
Refinish or reupholster the kitchen chairs for an instant clean look. Lastly, brighten that empty wall with a portrait of the family or work of art.
Make your kitchen sparkle with updated lighting. Clear glass shades, metallic finishes, and crystal fixtures are all on trend this spring.
The Entrance
Give your front door a modern look and feel this spring. Creative Building and remodelling don’t have to cost a fortune, and this type of project is a perfect example.
Choose a shade that makes your home stand out, or go with classic black for a refined finish.
Change out or polish the doorknob and hardware to complete the look.
Spring DIY Projects
Seasonal decor is a fun way to add some cheer to any home.
Let’s begin with a classic. Creating a spring wreath will bring joy for years to come. A grapevine base, artificial flowers and foliage, berries, ribbon, and some hot glue or wire are all you need to get started.
Make the dining room festive with Easter decorations. Consider a themed centrepiece with accompanying napkins and name cards if you are hosting a brunch, lunch, or supper.
Enliven your front porch with painted or stamped terracotta and plastic pots for your spring flowers.
