There are no ifs, and, or buts about it: The best way to usher in the spring season is by giving your home a warm-weather refresh. Now that everything is clean, tidy, and clutter-free (thanks, spring cleaning!), upgrade your space with any (or all) of these spring decor ideas. We're not talking about major home renovations or time-consuming DIY projects — these decorating ideas are really just an excuse to spruce up your living room, kitchen, dining room, bedroom, or office with pastel accents, straight-from-your-garden seasonal centerpieces, and cheery spring colors. No matter what style best describes your home — contemporary, farmhouse-inspired, timeless, or ultra-glam — you're bound to find some inspiration on this list that'll easily complement your current interior.
As an added bonus, several of these ideas align with this year's biggest home decor trends, like pops of live greenery and accessories in varying blush tones. Use these creative ideas as your foundation, and then add a few Easter-specific decorations in time for the holiday in April. But really, these ideas are appropriate enough to be left up all year long, especially if you want a lighter, brighter space.
Bundled Blooms
Bring color to your bedroom by mixing in new throw pillows, blankets, vases, and catchall trays in a spring-appropriate hue.
Spring has sprung in your bathroom: Layer empty seed packets or floral-filled book pages along a blank wall to create a botanical statement.
Like mirrors, clear furniture gives the illusion of a bigger space. Take a tiny breakfast nook, for example: Mix clear acrylic and light-colored accent chairs to achieve a lighter look and feel.
Lighten up the hearth of your home with a few coats of cream or white paint. Give the same treatment to outdated wood paneling for a cleaner canvas.
Boho-inspired decor relies on colors, patterns, and fun textures — all appropriate for the spring season. Think from the ground up with a multi-colored rug, accented with chairs in a coordinating shade.
Lighten up your space with bold yellow light fixtures and add decorative accents in a similar hue (think: lemons and yellow tulips) to match.
For an easy, spring-ready fix, mix textured throws with patterned pillows for added depth and color.
Head to the antique store (or your grandma's attic) to find candy-colored stem glasses to put on display. Arrange them by color, height, or any other way that pleases the eye.
Peel-and-stick wallpaper is a simple way to turn a blank wall into an Instagram-worthy accent piece. Consider it a chic upgrade to grandma's flower-covered walls.
Replace dark, winter-appropriate accessories with Easter-ready pastels. While robin's egg blue, soft pink, and lemon yellow may scream spring, they're also appropriate for the warm-weather months (read: summer).
If you're afraid that colored cabinets will overwhelm your small kitchen space, paint just the lower cabinets a bold color and keep the rest neutral.
Mirrors have a way of opening up space, making it look — and feel — larger than it really is. DIY this Anthropologie-inspired mirror and leave it up year-round.
A floral centerpiece is stunning on its own, but it really shines when placed on top of a garden-inspired tablecloth.
Update any blank wall by hanging shelves of a similar color and decorating with faux plants in color-coordinated planters.
Proof that you don't have to sacrifice style for function. Organize each shelf or grouping of dishware by color for an eye-catching display.
To offset the dark wooden walls and bed frame, dress the bed in crisp white and blue bedding.
Perfect for dinner gatherings and Easter celebrations, you can easily transform your dining space by sticking a statement-worthy runner in the middle of your table.
With yellow curtains, flowers, and decorative pieces, give any room the sunshine treatment.
Give a basic bouquet of flowers a farmhouse feel by placing them in a vase, made out of sticks and twine. Place it on a wood serving platter for extra impact.
Make a bold statement by painting the kitchen island a striking red hue. Complete it with neutral bar stools for a toned-down (but equally gorgeous) look.
Incorporate everything that the season has to offer — bright colors and fresh greens — into your living space with patterned throw pillows and indoor plants.
Bring Mother Nature indoors by scattering plants and flowers — remember: fresh is best — around your kitchen. Just keep 'em near the sink, so you'll remember to water them.
Keep your day-to-day essentials within reach by placing them in jars, bowls, and vases on a large cutting board in the center of the kitchen island or table.
Open up your space by swapping fabric-covered dining room chairs for understated wicker and rattan ones, complete with a cushion for optimal comfort.
