Today is the first day of Spring and what better way to welcome the season of rebirth, rejuvenation, renewal, resurrection, and regrowth than with a few Spring Updates around the house!
No. 1
I try to keep a vase of fresh flowers in my home year round but spring is definitely the season to brighten your home with the colors, textures and scent of a fresh bouquet. While I’m not big on decorating for Easter, I do love the idea of mixing a few Easter eggs in with flowers to celebrate the holiday and put a spin on an ordinary flower arrangement.
No. 2
Forsythia or cherry blossom branches are one of my favorite natural elements to decorate with. Branches placed in glass jars or even vintage rubber boots can be a fun addition to your spring mantle, tabletop or entryway.
No. 3
Springtime means more sunlight and longer days. A quick way to freshen up your décor for the season is with spring inspired pillows. Bring the colors of nature inside with brighter colors, vibrant patterns and floral images.
No. 4
The color yellow is a definite sign of spring and the sunnier days ahead. Lemons places in a jar will brighten your kitchen and can be used to decorate a bookshelf, windowsill or dining table. Combine green apples with oranges and lemons for even more vibrancy.
No. 5
What better way to welcome spring then with fresh front door décor. Try replacing a traditional wreath with a basket of natural elements to say WELCOME spring.
I know it will be a bit longer before I can run through the grass with bare feet or go on a picnic but I’m excited that spring is officially here!
