Easy updates are our favorites.
As we lean into March and the days start to get a little longer, it's the perfect time to hit refresh on our home's decor. Updating the home with spring decorating ideas always puts us in a good mood, because it means flowers are about to bloom and the weather is getting warmer. If you have free time this weekend – we know it's hard, but time to yourself is so important – you can pull off one or two of these DIY projects. Read more about our favorite spring decor ideas below.
Stick to easy and simple DIY updates that you can pull off in a weekend. Maybe you can switch out the color palette from wintery jewel tones to warm yellows and browns. Use this new spring color palette to pick out items that are easy to swap out, like a patterned rug or pillow covers. If you can, choose pillow covers with woven textures to liven up the sofa or bed. While we love a new throw pillow, sometimes the old ones can take up too much closet space, which is why we gravitate toward swapping out the covers for spring.

Another easy spring decor update is to reorganize and redecorate the surfaces spaces in your home. It won't take long at all – you can probably fit this in during your lunch break. A new plant or a bunch of flowers will usher in that fresh spring-inspired feeling. Place bright florals in a matte ceramic vase; the organic silhouette is perfect spring home decor. Tidy up the books on your coffee table and set out a candle with a fresh scent like eucalyptus or linen. Goodbye, winter blues!
Look beyond the coffee table to some of the other surfaces in your home. Perhaps a bookcase needs de-cluttering? Or a bar cart needs to be restyled? Playing with shades like aqua blue and sage green are some of our favorite spring decor ideas, because these colors pop in neutral rooms. Keep things simple by using a decorative tray to create a little vignette, or use decorative boxes to hide remotes and chargers.
Finally, add some natural decor elements to freshen up the living room and bring the outside in. For example, consider a new wooden bowl, ceramic piece, fresh flowers, wood candlestick holders, a marble bird sculpture, or driftwood branch.

Spring decorating ideas should be – above all – fun. The kitchen and dining areas in your home are some of the best places to infuse fresh, fun decor. This spring, we're loving traditional florals with a fresh twist. Lighten up the dining table with a floral tablecloth or placemats in bright, zingy colors like tangerine, periwinkle, and saffron. The best part about decorating with florals? They can easily camouflage spills. Swap out the kitchen towels for a perky new set.
This spring, we want lighting that doubles as art. Choose lighting with an industrial aesthetic, like this brass statement chandelier. Or go mid-century modern with globe pendant lights. Don't want to replace overhead lights? Opt for a new floor lamp with graceful curves or pick out a new lamp shade to give height to an old table lamp. While you're updating the light fixtures, make thoughtful adjustments like adding dimmer switches where you can. You'll be able to create a relaxing bathroom or bedroom atmosphere whenever you want. It will also save energy and money over time.

This weekend is a great time to put away heavy winter blankets and toss a lightweight throw or coverlet on your beds. All-white bedding is great for brightening up winter blues, but spring is your chance to bring color back into your home. This year, we're gravitating toward watercolor washes. These are the softer, washed-out versions of last year's vibrant, pastel spring palette. To get this look, choose bedding in muted coral, sage green, or ashy blue. Keep it simple by using the white sheets and pillowcases from winter and layer colored blankets and throw pillows on top.

Styling a big wall in an entryway or living room can be a lot of fun, and it's often not as time-consuming as we expect. Take a Sunday afternoon to reframe your art and build out a gallery wall. We love these eye-catching ocean and sky prints in soft watercolors. You can also get black-and-white prints of family photos you love and place them in matching frames. If you've got a weekend to spare, change up your wallpaper. It's the one DIY decorating update you can make that will have the biggest impact.

Pro Tip:
Bring spring beyond the entryway and onto the front porch with a few quick decorating updates. If you have time, repot plants in new planters. We're loving ceramic planters for spring. You can also add window boxes to the front windows for a unified floral look. If you want an easier update, simply hang a wreath on the front door. Your home will instantly feel cozier and inviting.

Spring is a great time for a refresh, which is why we're indulging in some new natural, must-have materials. Update your bathroom with fresh bath and hand towels. Choose a set that's made from 100% cotton for that soft, spa-like feeling. We're currently loving breezy furniture like these woven stools. Rattan, cane, and woven leather are breezy and approachable materials – and they're great for any furniture or room in your home.
