Marty’s home is always so beautifully decorated and charming, especially for spring.

7 Simple Steps to Invite Spring Inside

Today, I’m going to show you how I added simple spring touches around my home. Seven simple steps that anyone can do to brighten up their home for the season.

1. Swap Out Your Rug

During the winter, I had the gorgeous Ulubey area rug from Boutique Rugs in my living room. It has a more traditional style that worked nicely with my winter decor.

But for spring, I was ready to swap it out for something a bit more fun.

This new Minoa rug was just what I needed!

The beautiful blend of soft neutrals combined with a bold hexagonal pattern makes it a whimsical statement accessory to freshen up the room for spring.

2. Layer in Lighter Throws & Pillows

I removed some of the heavier lap blankets and pillows that I had out for winter and replaced them with lighter-weight throws and some fun, spring patterns in the pillows.

3. Declutter

The easiest and most inexpensive way to freshen your home up for spring is to declutter.

We tend to collect “stuff” over the winter, and when spring arrives, I’m ready to purge.

Keeping the kitchen counters free of excess things makes the whole room feel fresh, bright, and clean.

4. Add Pops of Spring Color

Using neutrals as the base color in my home allows for adding pops of color for each season.

This spring, I swapped out some of the white china I usually have in my antique corner cabinet and replaced it with my collection of blue and whites.

The combo of blues and spring greenery adds a fresh look to this corner of the kitchen.

The top of the china cabinet (which is next on the list for its makeover–stay tuned) got a flower market display. Tulips are the epitome of spring, don’t you think?

The Frame TV

One of my favorite ways to add pops of color to the room is with our new Frame TV.

Even my skeptical husband was impressed and commented on how much nicer the whole room looks without a giant black hole above the mantel.

Just look at how changing out the art adds an entirely different look and feel to the room. From bright pink florals to fresh spring nature pictures, you can select whatever you’re in the mood for. Spring vibes at your fingertips. 🙂

It’s the best “home decor” purchase we’ve made in a long time. No regrets.

5. Use Fresh Spring Scents

Candles, essential oils, and even a simmer pot are great ways to invite spring scents into your home, especially if you’re still waiting on the weather to warm up enough to get outside like we are here in Iowa.

6. Brighten Up with Greenery & Spring Florals

Because of its expansive size, the farmhouse dining table requires something big and dramatic as a centerpiece.

Some spring stems in a pretty green jug do the trick.

The glass jug and my crystal candlestick collection look so pretty when the spring sunlight comes through the window. At night, these favorite candles with a remote create a cozy ambient light for dining.

7. Add Spring Accessories

The free Pottery Barn dresser that recently got a makeover is being used as a console table behind the sofa for now. It makes a great place to display some spring accessories.

Remember this terrarium I got during our antique shopping trip to the KC West Bottoms?

I used it in the winter to create a lighted snowy scene, and now I’ve switched it over to spring by repotting some of my live plants in an old white ceramic loaf pan that tucks down inside the terrarium nicely.

The fireplace mantel gets some spring decor with vintage-looking rabbits, my DIY birdhouse, and some spring-themed books held up with vintage corbels.

This spring decor will transition from early spring through Easter by adding a few more pastel colors and some Easter Eggs. The greenery, florals, and spring birds will all stick around until it’s time to think about summer decor.

Thanks for stopping by today, friends.

Next, I invite you to pop over and see Yvonne’s gorgeous spring home at Stone Gable.

Plus, be sure to visit the other homes linked up below for tours all week long. I have no doubt you’ll find so much inspiration!

  2. SUCH a gorgeous home, Niky!! I love your white and blue dishes all corralled together in the corner. That bunny pillow on the couch is also just so stinkin’ cute!! This was very enjoyable to read. Hope you have a nice weekend!

  3. Niky, I love how your living room looks with just a few touches of spring decor! Yes, those frame tv’s are nice. Oddly enough, we have one and I never put on photos… And, where did you find that large bunny print/painting?? It’s perfect! Reminds me I need to pull out a bunny painting I have and use it on the mantel.

  8. Love your spring filled home and great ideas. They reminded me I have a demi-john and need to get it out and put stems inside. I think I’ve used it once. Love yours but I think my favorite two things are your view and that bunny print! So pretty. Happy Spring!

    1. Thank you so much, Linda. Area rugs make such a big impression in a room. It’s so fun and easy to change them out with the seasons to get a whole new luck. Just roll them up and store them in the basement until I’m ready to use one again!
