We share with you 9 easy ways to bring spring in your home:
1. IDEAS WITH NATURAL PLANTS AND FLOWERS
Nothing resembles spring more than first flowers of the season. Colorful and enchanting, flowers are the perfect way to bring the beauty of spring inside. The use of green leaves or fresh flowers is one of the easiest actualizations in your home during spring time. We can’t think of a better way to refresh the space than with beautiful plants and flowers.
2. FLORAL MOTIVES
If you don’t have the time or you don’t want to buy living plants, then you could interpret them in the interior by adding floral motives. You can free your imagination and change one of the walls with a wallpaper with floral motives or to refresh your chairs in the dining room by dressing them in colorful chair covers. Whatever it is that you change, it has to reflect your desires and to make you smile every time you look at it.
3. STYLIZE YOUR DECORATIONS
You can refresh the look of your home when you change the style of your coffee table, decoration table, shelves, countertops or fireplace. One of the reasons to change the styling is that it’s fun to see how you can use objects that you already have in new and different ways. If you don’t like how something looks you can easily change it as you move things from other parts of the house.
- Use a bunch of books to lift objects at a higher position / this is easy because books are quite trendy at the moment/.
- Combine objects in groups of three – preferably a tall object, a short one, a sculpture and a horizontal element.
- Change the position of the furniture – this is difficult because some people are prone to go too far. Learn how to re-organize until you reach the right outlookfor each room. Balance hard and soft objects, as well as different textures, colors, shades and styles.
- Layering – the placing of some objects in front of others, while putting others away, in order to create more depth and to give the space a more natural look.
4.RENEW YOUR BEDROOM
Spring is related to awakening, so this is the perfect time of the year to awaken the life in your bedroom with a new set of bed sheets! If you enjoy white covers throughout the whole year, dig deep into the closets and the wardrobes and take out the colorful bed sheets or blankets that you had forgotten, because this will make the bedroom vivid and new for the spring.
5. REARRANGE THE FURNITURE
One of the easiest upgrades of the home is to rearrange the furniture. Sometimes we forget what a huge difference this simple setting could make. Not only the changing of the furniture changes the outlook of a room, but also the way you arranged it. Every time we rearrange the furniture of the living room, it turns out that we hang on there more often than before. Rearranging of the furniture takes little amount of time and maybe you will have muscle strain, but this can make you feel like you live in a new home.
6. ADD MORE COLOR
When it comes to color composition in the interior design, you could never be wrong by mixing colors that already exist together in nature. For a bit of spring taste look for vivid green, sunny yellow, sky blue and cloudy white colors. These nature-inspired nuances will bring the pleasure of nature in your home, for sure.
7. COLOR THE DECORATIVE PILLOWS
Bring a fresh look of the sofa, the chairs and the beds by adding new pillows or just rearrange the ones that you already have. If your pillow collection is so large and it takes too much space in the closet, you can just change them by putting on new vivid pillow cases and use the pillow stuffing you already have and create new smaller pillows.
8.BRING ART INTO YOUR HOME
Use different types of frames and fill them with photographs, art works or even art crafts that you have personally made. Arrange them in size in straight lines and by some pattern or just place frames with a different size and type in a chaotic manner.
9.WELCOME SUNSHINE
During this time of the year we need as much sunshine as we can get. Why not change your dark curtains with lighter ones or remove them completely? Hopefully your neighbors won’t mind seeing more of you!
Another easy thing is to lift the blinds a bit more during daytime so you can let the smile of the sun enter the room. At the same time, you have to think about the setting of your artificial light sources. The change of old lamps and lampshades could give a whole new look of the room. Besides, think about rearranging the lamps that you already have on different surfaces and in different rooms. Another idea is to place little lapms on places you don’t usually place lamps, such as kitchen countertops, bathrooms, wardrobes and niches.
We hope that this spring ideas for decoration will spark your creativity and will inspire you to add some fresh touch of spring in your home, which will refresh your day and will make you smile during these not-so-easy times.
MAKE IT HAPPEN!
