Spring set your home !
Spring brings in joy and cheer and what better way to enjoy it than to let our homes embrace the season in full spirit.
Let’s have a look how best we can pep up our homes with spring decor ideas. From fresh florals to sparkling hues, breezy textiles, these expert-approved ideas will have your home feeling renewed in no time.
Nature as muse
Embrace the vibrancy of spring by dedicating your spaces to natural plants and fresh blooms. Flowers bloom at their best in this season. Visit a plant nursery and pick up your favourite ones. Get involved in watering and caring for these and see how your hearts are filled with joy when you see your plants blooming! Bringing a natural, garden-like feel indoors, is the best way to enhance both aesthetics and well-being. If you can dedicate a room to greenery, nothing can be better as it will be your soothing retreat within your home.
Moreover, don’t forget that embracing greenery as a design feature, is a feel-good factor aligning with the trend of biophilic design, fostering a connection between interiors and the natural world.
Weave a cheerful theme
Replace your heavy, wintery furnishings with lighter, floral, and breathable fabric. It’s time to drape your windows in sheer, light and flowy fabrics. Going for big, bold patterns of spring foliage is also a great way of inviting spring into our homes. Use these patterns on drapes, rugs, pillows, couches and even carpets. .
Let pop ups create a story
How about pop ups creating some drama? Let these be your favorite spring touches. If you want a memorable setting, consider adding personalised accents like your favourite craft pieces or your travel souvenirs. It could be an interesting sketch work or a painting or just a pretty box. If they reflect the fresh energy of the season, they will instantly brighten up your space.
Vibrant colour palette
Liven up your rooms by picking bright colours like red, yellow and orange by way of elements like a rug, throws or cushion covers.
You could even redecorate your bookshelf to match your mood this season.
Rotate your books according to the colour of the covers. Place the dark-coloured books at the back and show the brighter hues in front.
Designers even suggest to create a rainbow effect, starting with bright red on top. Much like the season of spring, they will make your home cheerful!
Brighten up your bedroom with a fresh pop of colour through bright accents.
For a subtle change in the living room, touches of sage green and seasonal blooms would be perfect.
An outdoor affair
To soak in Nature in its full bloom, it’s a good idea to set up an outdoor seating area. Having a garden would be the best thing, if not, create spring-inspired setting on a terrace or balcony. Complete the set-up by installing soothing lights. Place a wooden dining table, some potted plants, colourful rug and you have a lovely space under the sky.
Spring clean and declutter
Finally, spare sometime to get your cleaning checklist in place. Declutter, reorganise your spaces and give them a new lease of life.
To conclude
It is the beauty of every season that allows us to make some minor and some major changes in our home décor. Spring is associated with three elements — colour, nature and warmth hence our efforts should be to create this synergy in the form of prints, patterns, colours and actual foliage.
Quickly Then….
- Focus on adding simple, seasonal decorative accents.
- Go for natural indoor plants as they bring a sense of calm and freshness, improve air quality, and help create a restorative environment.
- Plant flower bulbs in terra-cotta pots, then turn the blooms into tabletop decor for your sense of fulfillment.
- Introducing pop of colours through cushions, throws, and art objects is an easy way to bring a sense of energy and cheer.
