The time of year where we step into the sunnier mornings and warmer afternoons of spring has arrived once again, which means now is the perfect moment to take advantage of the vibrant energy outside to revitalize your space.
The best way to refresh your home for spring is to be intentional, keep the decor simple, and most importantly, enjoy the process. Here’s a rundown of tips that will help make your space come alive for the spring.
Declutter
Decluttering makes room for items that truly spark joy and helps you be more organized with your space. Psychologists suggest that decluttering your space instills a sense of confidence in us as it utilizes our decision-making skills. At times, focusing on the things we can change in our environment helps us cope better with the anxiety that comes with not having enough control in other areas of our lives. It is reassuring to be able to make decisions in our homes that affect our day-to-day lives.
Decluttering could be getting rid of extra dishes in the kitchen, donating or recycling unused items, or making room for new curtains online in the bedroom. As you start to skim through your belongings, you’ll begin to bring greater attention to the details of your home. Now that the space around you begins to feel lighter, you will find yourself thinking more clearly.
Add a dash of greenery
According to many studies, looking at the color green provides a soothing effect for the eyes, reduces stress, and relaxes our minds. Plants revive our homes with new energy when added to our living spaces and bring in a breath of fresh air into the atmosphere. Kicking off the spring season by adding some plants inside or planting them in your garden is a great start.
Let your personality shine
Creating a house that reflects your personality is not just about appearance but also about freedom of expression.
What could be more inspiring than spring to showcase your personality in your house? You can paint the walls with colors that reflect your unique style, hang up pictures that remind you of happy moments, buy sheet sets that match a new color theme, and more. You can start by creating a vision board of your ideal space and then blend elements of it into your home decor. Set new intentions and bring your creative vision to life.

Select the color based on your home’s existing theme. Consider all your current decor and play with different textures, colors, and sizes.
Update the art
Swap your art out to bring fresh energy in your space. Since spring outside means plants and flowers are blooming, you can choose to opt for pieces that have botanical or bohemian themes. If you don’t feel like swapping out your pieces, you can change the way your current art pieces are displayed.
You can make slight but impactful changes like replacing frames for your photographs, hanging abstract art, or add more colorful art pieces.
Repurpose the
pieces you already have You can renovate a space just by rearranging the pieces you already have. You can reposition lighting fixtures, decor pieces, accent chairs, rugs, and more. Get your creative juices flowing and make your space feel newer and fresher. Rearranging could also just be as simple as keeping everything as it is and rearranging the furniture pieces' angles and position.
