LIGHTEN UP WITH SPRING HOME DÉCOR

Springtime is upon us and it’s time to lighten and brighten up our homes with spring home décor. So, where should I start? Well, we’re glad you asked. Home makeovers don’t have to cost the earth. Just a few tweaks are all that are needed to revamp and refresh each room for the new season. Let’s talk about spring color trends, window treatments to both welcome in and filter out the sunshine, indoor plants and flowers, and a seasonal rug refresh.

Accent With The Latest Paint Color Trends For Spring

Dark colors are delicious for sure, but when sunny weather rolls around, we want to feel fresh, bright and uplifted. Longer days and lighter nights should translate into our internal living spaces too, so what’s trending in the world of paint color?

Sunshine yellow is a no-brainer from spring into summer. Bring in this bold hue through a single accent wall or archway and complement with scatter cushions and artwork elsewhere. Blush pink brings sweetness and youthfulness, while sage green and olive green provide balance and serenity. Bright blues make us think of clear skies and calm waters, while coral tones set a punchy vacation vibe for the coming months.

 

Dress With Stylish Window Treatments

Imagine a mild spring breeze gently blowing through your window. Lightweight voiles drift romantically in the gentle wind, adding movement and light play to your interior. Alternatively, if you’re looking to control a blinding influx of searing sunlight into a room, voile roman blinds provide fuller cover, while bamboo Venetian blinds provide robust shade. Those looking for an early night as the sun still blazes should consider switching to blackout blinds, or investing in wooden shutters for a stylish, long-term solution. Blackout curtain linings are a flexible option that can be added to existing drapes or to thicken beautiful botanical print curtains and fun florals for spring.

 

Say It With Flowers

Nothing says springtime like cheerful flowers and uplifting greenery. There are all sorts of ways to bring the joy of nature into your home without having a green thumb. Flowering indoor plants flourish with joyous blooms again and again, but do you know what never loses its flowers? An artificial plant. Now, hear this out because fake plants have had a bad rap in years gone by but nowadays, you can barely tell the difference. You can even get artificial window boxes to line your sills with beauty without attracting unwanted insects. Convincing faux floral arrangements bring everlasting color to dining tables and side tables without dropping pollen and leaves, so all your deep spring cleaning won’t have gone to waste. If it’s real blooms that make your heart sing, then a flower subscription service will keep your tables dressed and your spirits high all year round. If you’re lucky enough to be able to take some clippings from your very own garden, then treat yourself to a new decorative vase or two to make your homemade display really pop.

 

Roll Out The Rugs

Freshen up underfoot with natural textures to give your springtime home an earthy boho vibe or select colorful weaves to add a punch of color that can be easily switched out when the season changes. Think handwoven cotton rugs with tasseled borders for an inexpensive change that will transform the vibe and dominant accent color of your space. Braided rugs in trendy racetrack-shaped silhouettes will give your décor scheme a fashion-forward appeal. Round jute rugs with openwork patterns are great for underpinning small lounge areas and reading nooks, while multicolored runners thread cheer right from the home entryway. Whatever you add to your home to lighten up for spring, make it fun and make it yours!
