There’s no denying spring’s effect. When the drab greys of winter are over, the brightness of spring always has us hungry to spruce up! We’ve put together some spring decorating must-haves.
Spring Colours
Decorating with the colours of spring is a great way to brighten up your home after winter. Try our tips for decorating with all the colours of spring without breaking the bank.
Flowers: Use fresh flowers like daffodils and gerberas as a centrepiece in your living room. These flowers immediately brighten the home, filling it with the fresh scent of spring.
Make Something Old, New: You don’t need to splash out on new furniture to give your home a spring feel. Instead, change your Christmas-themed throws and pillows for yellows and pale greens. If you’re feeling creative, reinvigorate an old flowerpot with a bright coat of paint. You can use it as a floor-vase for those fresh-cut flowers.
Decorate with Wallpaper: Wallpaper got itself a bit of a bad rep after decorators in the 60s and 70s wallpapered every room in the house with prints and patterns that made it feel like you were on an acid trip. But if you select patterns that aren’t too busy, and use it sparingly—ideally as an accent or trim in one room of the house, rather than every room—wallpaper can bring a much-needed boost of colour and energy.
Spring To the Table: You have Christmas-themed placemats and centrepieces on the table at Christmas, so why not have spring-themed placemats and centrepieces on the table during spring? Fresh flowers, cherry-blossom-printed dinnerware and placemats are great ways to bring spring to your table, without spending a small fortune.
