Once the spring cleaning is done, it’s time to bring the outdoors into your clean house and show off the bright colors of spring’s renewal. It doesn’t take much to bring the spring inside and represent the new season in your house. Incorporate family activities and favorite design elements in each room to brighten your home and welcome spring.
Here are 7 Spring Decoration and Design Ideas for Your Home:
- Find family friendly spring craft projects on Pinterest. If you have not checked out Pinterest yet, you can search the picture sharing network for all kinds of craft ideas, illustrated and detailed explanations of how to complete them. Some ideas we recommend looking for are recycled material craft projects of spring art for the walls.
- Storage Tower of Boxes covered in spring paper. Looks like a gift, but can be just everyday storage. What better way to store mundane things like paper clips, pens, and other supplies than in boxes that are wrapped like gifts?
- Give something old a new look. Recover chairs with spring colored fabric, repaint a lamp, or add a spring themed lining to the lamp shade.
- Add small floral or spring themed accents around your house. Adding flower patterned or spring colored pillows and other small changes like pictures, coasters, and flowers will bring in that top
- Bring the outside in. Place a large plant in the corner with a light behind it to add a glow and show off the nature in your home. Adding flowers really represent spring too. Whether you make a flower or plant centerpiece for your table, or hang some floral designs on the wall, there is no better way to embrace spring in your house. Paint a white ceiling pale blue to give the illusion that there is no ceiling. This also brightens and enlarges the space.
- Paint your front door. Choose a spring color; it will remind you of spring every time it welcomes you home.
- Add some spring to your walls. Pick a spring inspired wall paper and use it in small spaces, such as the closet, the pantry, or the front of the dresser. If wallpaper is too much for your taste or too involved, try wall decals. Besides flowers and plans, great representatives of spring are butterflies, birds, and eggs.
