Refresh Your Home for Spring with these 5 Simple Tips

Spring is here at last, and after chilly winter days and cozy holiday nights, it’s the perfect time to freshen up your home decor for the new season. When it comes to a seasonal style refresh, a little change can go a long way, so you don’t need to spend a lot of time or money to feel the difference. While this year’s top style trends are a great place to find inspiration for home renovation projects and full room makeovers, we’ve also curated these 5 easy ways to quickly refresh your interior design for a stylish springtime:

1. Freshen Up Your Color Palette with a Statement Rug

Adding a new statement rug is a great way to incorporate the softer shades of spring, and quickly brighten up any room. They’re also an easy option when you want to bring a very different feel to your space without purchasing all new furniture. Try the hand-loomed Cedar Rug from Amber Lewis x Loloi with a clean gridded design in contrasting ivory, or the new Hazan Romy rug from Jaipur Living for an intricate pattern with beautifully vibrant colors. Each of these statement rugs are expertly crafted by skilled artisans, and available in a wide variety of sizes and materials to best complement your style tastes.

2. Highlight Nature’s Beauty with Sculptural Lighting 

Swapping out a lighting feature or two for some sculptural lighting is an easy way to incorporate the more organic shapes of nature into your home. Exploring new lighting options is also an ideal design element for the spring season since it can bring a sense of brightness to your interior design, while also doubling as unique pieces of art. Our customers love the Blossom Chandelier by Cisco Home for its charming design that evokes the fresh flowers blooming in spring. Discover the ceramic Soloma Table Lamp by Troy Lighting with its rounded dome and gently sloping edges, or enjoy the Galeville Table Lamp from Hudson Valley Lighting with a more structured, travertine stone body.

3. Welcome In a Coastal Breeze with Striped Accents

Striped patterns for throw blankets, pillows, and furniture upholstery can add a light and airy touch of modern coastal style to your springtime decor. From a Margosa Dawsel Throw Blanket made of natural wool fibers and soft cotton, to its matching Margosa Kovar Pillows, stripes in a cooler color palette are a go-to choice for warmer days. Easily swap out your darker, heavier accent fabrics for a breezier aesthetic with the Belmont Pillows by Amber Lewis x Loloi, or a striped slipcover on a Sadie Swivel Glider Chair from Rowe.

4. Relax In Cool Comfort and Fresh Linens

Nothing says springtime like the smell of fresh linen, and the same goes for refreshing the linen bedding in your bedroom too! After a good night’s rest with the 100% organic Belgian linen of a Guest House Striped Duvet and pillowcases from Libeco, you’ll feel the difference this natural and sustainable fiber can make. Libeco’s crisp and luxurious Heritage Sheet Set is also GOTS-certified and locally-made for a one-of-a-kind bedtime experience. Linen bedding is especially suited for warmer spring evenings, because they’re naturally cool to the touch, while also being versatile as either a pressed and polished look, or casual laid-back feel.  

5. Brighten Up Spring Meals with Handcrafted Ceramics

The effortless beauty of organic shapes and artisanal craftsmanship pair perfectly with this season known for fresh blooms and bountiful gardens. Celebrate nature with handcrafted ceramic vases from the Floral Society to showcase your springtime flowers, and add seasonal color to your home decor. You can also refresh your kitchen and dining spaces with handcrafted dishware in your favorite shade of spring from East Fork, USA made in North Carolina. If you prefer a more neutral look, let your fresh garden veggies be the centerpiece with Farmhouse Pottery’s hand thrown ceramic dishes, pie plates, and farmer’s pitchers, made in Vermont.
