Refresh and Renew Your Home for Spring! Here’s How

The long, hard winter has finally come to a close and spring has arrived. With the changing of the seasons, it's the perfect time to revamp your decor. Spruce up your living space in the name of spring with these simple and affordable tweaks.

  1. Add a splash of cream. Daisies. Fresh milk. Baby bunnies. The best things in spring are cream-colored. Incorporate lighter tones into your home, too, like white and yellow, if you want to infuse it with the feeling of spring. Find a vintage milk glass vase at your favorite thrift store or another light-hued accent to bring the springtime vibes.
  2. Bring the outdoors in. Breathing new life into your living room might be as simple as picking up a bouquet of fresh flowers. Look for flora that really screams spring, like tulips or lilacs, and set a vase of them to your dining room table or an end table in the living room.
  3. Brighten up throw pillows. You don't have to splurge on new furniture to change the aesthetic of your apartment. You can find pillow covers for just a few bucks at retailers like Ikea that will totally transform your sofa. Opt for light pastel hues and floral prints to make over your space.
  4. Swap in citrusy candles. As the sights in your apartment change, so should the scents. Stow away your vanilla and cinnamon-scented candles until next winter and bring in candles that smell of oranges and lemons, beachy breezes, or anything else that makes you think of spring or summer.
