Spring is here, and summer is on its way, making it the perfect time to refresh your home and embrace the lighter, brighter energy of the season. A few simple updates can make your space feel fresh, inviting, and ready for warmer, longer days ahead. Here’s how:

  1. Start with a Spring Clean


Before you bring in anything new, take some time to declutter and deep clean. Open the windows, dust off forgotten corners, and give your home a fresh start. An organized space instantly feels lighter and more welcoming!



  1. Swap Out Home Accents & Decor


Give your home an instant seasonal refresh by swapping out accessories like throw pillows, wall art, and decorative accents. Opt for soft pastels, warm neutrals, or vibrant hues that reflect the energy of spring and summer. Switching out artwork with breezy landscapes or botanical prints, or simply adding a new vase and a thrifted wicker basket, can completely transform the feel of a space.



  1. Add Fresh Florals & Greenery


Nothing says spring quite like fresh flowers and greenery. Whether you opt for a statement bouquet on your dining table or small bud vases scattered throughout your home, adding greenery and blooms instantly enlivens any space. If fresh flowers aren’t your thing, try potted plants for a longer-lasting touch.

  1. Rearrange Your Furniture


Sometimes, a new layout is all you need to make your space feel brand new. Try shifting your furniture to maximize natural light, create a more open feel, or highlight a cozy seating area. It’s a no-cost way to give your home fresh, new look.



  1. Introduce Light & Airy Textiles


As the seasons change, so should your fabrics! Swap out heavy, textured materials like wool and velvet for breathable options like linen, cotton, and gauzy weaves. Sheer curtains let sunlight pour in, while lightweight slipcovers, airy throws, and crisp bedding create a fresh, effortless feel and get your home ready for the warm months ahead.



  1. Refresh Your Outdoor Space


Give your patio or balcony a little love by cleaning off furniture, updating the cushions, adding a jute area rug, and incorporating potted plants or string lights for a cozy, welcoming feel. A small refresh can make your outdoor space feel like an inviting retreat.
