This year, spring officially begins on March 19 — which means it's time to start planning your transition from winter to spring decor. First and foremost, we always start with a spring cleaning checklist (which includes organizing and decluttering every room). Then, we look to cheery decorations, like fresh greenery, pastel colors and natural textures, to bring the feeling of spring indoors.
From the front porch to the living room or bedroom, we've rounded up spring decor ideas that are easy to implement. You can choose to make a statement with a fresh wallpaper design or new lighting fixture, or keep it simple with colorful throw pillows, brighter bedding or DIY spring centerpieces. The trick is focusing on design elements that can easily be updated, like curtains, rugs and throw blankets — all of which can be reused next year.
Other decorating ideas include botanical prints in the entryway, a vibrant shower curtain in the bathroom and a farmhouse-style spring mantel. If you're hosting a spring party or decorating for Easter dinner, we've sprinkled in spring table decor ideas that are ideal for entertaining (imagine colorful glassware, garden flowers and a woodsy table arrangement). Your spring makeover doesn't have to cost much either — try visiting your local dollar stores and thrift shops to pick up fresh decor, or try your hand at a spring DIY project.
