Deep Clean

Spring is the perfect time for a complete deep clean to get rid of any winter grime and start afresh.
Once you’ve decluttered and given your home a good spring clean, you can make space to focus on how you want to feel in your home, the colours you want to incorporate now that spring is here, and start refreshing your space.
Remove the Winter Layers

As the weather begins to warm up, take the opportunity to pack away any heavy blankets, throws, and rugs. Remove the heavier layers and introduce lighter layers such as cotton or linen for a fresh spring feel.
Now your space will feel lighter and brighter.
Change up the Colour Palette

Gone are winter’s dark and dreary colours; it’s time to start thinking about light, bright, airy hues.
Introduce a fresh colour palette to your home by adding new cushions, throws, or lamps in on-trend Spring colours. Blush pink, sage green, and lemon yellow are all perfect colours to inject some life into your home to greeting spring with open arms.
We’re not saying to give your space an entire, costly revamp. However, simply adding a vase, lamp, cushion, or even a piece of art in spring colours can make all the difference and are easily swapped out when you’re ready for a change.
Add Textures

Incorporating different textures is a great way to add interest and depth to your space. So when the darker hues of winter lingered in your throw blankets, cushions, or even curtains, replace them with some Spring inspired textiles and watch your space transform.
Mixing and matching different fabrics can also be a fun way to play with colour and pattern. Choose something that speaks to you and makes you happy. After all, this season is all about happiness, growth, and starting afresh.
Create Space

You may have coordinated your furniture to be closer together for extra warmth during the winter months, but now is the time to start thinking about how to create more space.
Channel the airy, calming vibes you’d find yourself amongst on a Summer Holiday in Fiji or other tropical destinations and start planning how to achieve that in your home… because who doesn’t want to feel like they’re on holiday all year round?
You could move your sofa away from the wall to create a more open and inviting feel, or try floating your furniture in the middle of the room.
Playing with Light

Spring is all about sunshine and longer days, so make the most of it by letting as much natural light into your home as possible.
Open up those curtains and blinds and let the sunshine in! If you don’t have access to a lot of natural light, consider investing in some lighter-coloured lampshades or even some fairy lights to brighten up your space.
Another way to brighten your space is by opting for home decor pieces that reflect the light, such as mirrors, glass vases, and bowls.
Bringing the Outdoors in

One of the best things about spring is that you can finally start spending more time outdoors. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean you must leave all the good vibes behind. Instead, bring the outdoors inside by adding a few potted plants and decorating with fresh flowers.
Adding greenery into your home for Spring will not only be a great way to add a pop of colour and life to your space but also a great way to purify the air.
Paint a Room

Not only will a new paint job make your space feel brand new, but it’s also an inexpensive way to update your interior for spring.
