Transitioning into Spring is like moving into a time to refresh and reflect. Filled with sunlight and life, Spring time is a great time to refresh your home. Start by updating your color palette with fresher and lighter tones like grays, soft neutrals and pastels can easily elevate a room and your mood. Rearranging or switching out your art and accessories can easily transform a room much easier than purchasing new, larger furniture. introducing indoor plants into your space really helps to bring the outdoors in and works well as a natural air cleanser.
In your kitchen, Spring is the best time to organize and declutter your pantry. Check the expiration date on your canned goods and rotate everything to an order that works best for you. Consider purchasing sealed canisters and jars as these not only better preserve your dry foods but create a chic look and can be easily labeled.
The bedroom is one of the most important rooms of the home to refresh, it’s the first and last space that we see everyday. We want this space to feel inspiring in the morning and relaxing in the evening. One of the easiest ways to quickly refresh the bedroom is by switching out your seasonal bedding. Heavy draperies can be balanced by lightweight shears which welcome the natural Spring lighting.
If you’re like me and like to host, you’ll want your outdoor living space to be pristine! Bring out your upholstered cushions from storage and clean your furniture. Decorating the area with string lights and candles can offer a comfortable and easy way to transition to evening with your guests as the weather continues to warm.
After all that hard work, don’t forget to reward yourself! A refreshing evening cocktail with friends to show off your new space is one of my favorite rewards!
