As the first blooms make their joyful return and the sunlight lingers just a bit longer each evening, I find myself energized by the simple magic of spring. It’s a season that never fails to lift the spirit—and one that brings with it a renewed sense of possibility.
There’s something powerful about the way spring arrives quietly, but undeniably. I’ve always loved this time of year: the scent of fresh blooms, the early morning light filtering through the windows, the way a space can feel completely transformed with just a few thoughtful changes. It reminds me that inspiration often begins in the smallest places.
We recently completed a sweet spring update in one of our clients' homes, focusing on brightening up their tiny powder room. A space often overlooked, this project reminded me of the incredible impact that intentional accents, a bit of color, and the right styling can make—no matter the square footage.
Three Ways to Refresh Your Home for Spring
As the outdoors blossoms, why not bring that same energy inside? Whether you’re updating a single room or infusing a bit of seasonal joy throughout your home, here are three design tips to welcome the spirit of spring:
1. Add Florals with Intention - Spring is synonymous with blooms—but it’s not just about bouquets. Consider incorporating floral elements through art prints, textiles, or even wallpaper in compact spaces like powder rooms or entryways. These visual cues add instant freshness and charm.
2. Lighten Up Your Palette - Swap out heavy fabrics and darker tones for lighter, breathable textures in linen, cotton, and woven materials. A simple change—like pastel pillow covers or a cream throw—can completely transform the mood of a room.
3. Create a Fresh Focal Point - Choose one space—perhaps a coffee table, bathroom vanity, or front door—and make it a seasonal statement. A bowl of lemons, a fresh floral arrangement, or a cheerful mirror can create a sense of newness with little effort.
As the world outside turns a little brighter, we encourage you to consider how your home can mirror the season’s natural transformation to reflect, refresh, and welcome in a lighter, more vibrant way of living. Whether you brighten up a powder room or bring florals into your favorite reading nook, even the smallest updates can spark a meaningful shift in how your space supports you.
