NCP Blog: Hello Spring! Simple Ways to Brighten Your Home

When spring arrives, I like to refresh my home by not only doing some deep cleaning and decluttering, but also by updating my home decor for the new season. To create a bright and airy feeling of spring, I swap out some items for more vibrant colors. Simple changes like replacing throw pillows, comforters, tablecloths, shower curtains, and front door decor instantly make a difference. And, I may even treat myself to some fresh flowers! You get the idea!

 

A little DIY goes a long way in transforming your home for the season. Whether it’s incorporating spring colors or repurposing items for a fresh look, you don’t need a big budget – just a few creative ideas to brighten and refresh your space.

 

DIY Spring Projects

 

Let’s explore some simple DIY project ideas I found at itsmynest.com. Hopefully, they’ll inspire us to embrace the season and give our homes a springtime refresh!

 

Floral Mason Jar Vases You can transform mason jars into pretty vases by tying pastel-colored ribbons around the rims and filling them with fresh spring flowers such as tulips and daisies.

 

Upcycled Tin Can Planters Create pretty planters using old tin cans. Clean the cans and remove any labels, then paint them in bright, spring colors. Drill small holes at the bottom for drainage before planting.

 

Painted Terracotta Pots Take terracotta pots and give them a splash of color. Then, plant vibrant spring flowers in them!

 

Fabric-Covered Flower Pots Choose a variety of floral-patterned fabrics that remind you of spring. Then, wrap the fabric around the flower pots and secure it with glue or double-sided tape.

 

Lemon and Herb Centerpiece Arrange lemons and fresh herbs, like mint and rosemary, in a glass bowl to refresh your dining area.
