As the weather warms up and the flowers start to bloom, it’s the perfect time to refresh your space and embrace the spring season. Spring cleaning is not just about decluttering and getting rid of things you don’t need, but it’s also an opportunity to update your home decor and bring in some fresh energy. Here are some design tips to help you give your space a spring refresh!
Bring in Fresh Colours
Spring is all about bright and cheerful colors that reflect the new growth and energy of the season. Think about adding pops of colors like yellows, greens, pinks, and blues to your space. Choose variations of these shades in decorative knickknacks, art, rugs, and throws or pillows to easily infuse a seasonal touch into your environment.
Embrace Lighter Textures
In the winter, we tend to use heavier fabrics and textures to keep warm, but in the spring, it’s time to lighten things up. Replace your winter blankets with lightweight throws or swap out your heavy curtains for sheer ones to let in more natural light. You can also consider adding lighter fabrics like linen, cotton, or bamboo to your decor.
Bring in Natural Elements
Spring is the perfect time to bring in natural elements like plants, flowers, and wood. Plants not only add visual interest to your space, but they also help purify the air and create a more relaxing atmosphere. Consider adding some natural wood elements, a moss centerpiece or woven basket to your space to bring in a touch of nature.
Get Rid of Clutter
Spring cleaning is the perfect time to get rid of things you don’t need and declutter your space. Go through your closet and get rid of clothes you haven’t worn in a year or clean out your pantry and get rid of expired food. You’ll be surprised at how much lighter and refreshed you’ll feel once you’ve cleared out the clutter.
Clean Up
Spring cleaning isn’t just about decluttering, but it’s also about deep cleaning your space. Take the time to clean your windows, dust your shelves, and vacuum under your furniture. You’ll be amazed at how much better your space will feel once it’s been thoroughly cleaned.
