Spring is here and that means it’s time to give your home a fresh new look! Don’t worry, you don’t need to do a total redesign. With just a few simple updates, you can give your home a quick decor makeover that will make it feel bright, airy and ready for the new season.
Clear Out the Clutter
Before making any decorative changes, it’s important to clear out the clutter. Go through each room and donate, recycle or trash any items you no longer need or want. Make sure closets, cabinets and drawers are organized. Clutter can make a room feel dark and dated, so clearing it out will instantly breathe new life into your home.
Add a Fresh Coat of Paint
Painting is one of the easiest ways to give your home a quick transformation. If your walls are looking dingy, go for a fresh coat of paint in a neutral shade like tan, grey or white. For a bolder look, choose a pale pastel hue like mint green, lavender or light yellow. Painting the ceiling white can also make rooms feel more open and airy.
Update With New Decor Accents
Here are some quick and easy ways to freshen up your home’s decor for spring:
-
Replace heavy curtains and valances with sheer, lightweight ones to let more light in. Go for cheerful floral or gingham prints that say “spring.”
-
Add fresh greenery like pots of tulips or daffodils, cut flowers, and leafy plants like ferns or ivy. Greenery instantly livens up a room.
-
Update throw pillows and blankets with lighter weight and brighter colors and patterns. Florals and geometric prints are trendy this season.
-
Freshen up your tabletops with cute Easter decor in pastels, bunnies, eggs, and spring florals.
-Swap out dark winter bedding for crisp white or lightweight quilts and shams. Add florals and pastels for a springtime feel.
Rearrange and Repurpose
Try out some new furniture arrangements to give your rooms a fresh look. Pull furniture away from the walls and change up your usual setup. Repurpose home decor items in new spots—for example, use candlesticks meant for the dining table to hold bathroom towels. Get creative! Sometimes a simple rearrangement makes a room feel brand new.
Deep Clean Kitchen and Bathrooms
Nothing feels like spring cleaning more than sparkling kitchen and bathrooms. Scrub counters, tile floors, showers, toilets, and sinks until they shine. It makes such a difference! While you’re at it, declutter cabinets and drawers, get rid of old cleaning products, and organize with cute canisters and bins.
