10 Simple Spring Home Decor Ideas for 2025
Since I’m all about keeping things easy, the spring decor ideas in this post are focused on creative ways of using colors, textures, and items you already have around your house, like greenery, woven elements, trays, and pillows.
1. Add floral accents and plants
When it comes to adding a touch of spring to your home, in my opinion, there’s nothing quite like incorporating floral accents and plants.

By bringing the outside in, you can infuse your space with the natural beauty of blossoms and greenery.
Whether it’s a bouquet of fresh flowers on the dining table or botanical prints scattered throughout the room, floral accents can instantly brighten and liven up any space, including the bathroom!
As we transition from winter to spring, floral accents serve as a way to seamlessly blend the two seasons together, creating a space that feels both comforting and fresh.
When decorating our home for spring, I like to begin by gathering fresh branches and greenery from our yard.
There’s nothing easier or more beautiful than bringing a touch of the outdoors inside, and it’s one of my favorite tips for decorating for spring on a budget.
I like to choose a variety of indoor plants that thrive in natural light and require minimal maintenance, such as succulents, ferns, and peace lilies. Orchids are a favorite of mine, and I have several throughout our home.
Place your plants and flowers in decorative pots and planters that complement your existing decor to create a cohesive look throughout your home.
Adding a bowl of fresh fruits or vegetables to your kitchen countertops is another great way to bring a touch of spring to the kitchen.

I love the look of a bowl of lemons on the kitchen countertop. It’s such an easy thing to do, but it adds a vibrant pop of color and scent to our home.

2. Lighter fabrics
Adding in some light and airy fabrics can transition your home from winter to springtime.
Incorporating sheer curtains, lightweight linens, and breezy fabrics is one of my favorite ways to update a space with a sense of lightness and freshness that reflects the season.
One of the easiest ways to bring a fresh look to your couch, chairs, and beds is by adding a few new pillows — or simply rearranging the ones you already own.

Lighter textiles not only add a touch of spring to your home but also allow natural light to filter through, creating a sense of brightness and airiness.
H & M, Pottery Barn, and West Elm are great sources for spring pillow covers. They offer linen, cotton, and velvet versions in every hue.
3. Make a statement with patterns
For a modern and stylish touch , consider incorporating some prints in your spring decor.
Stripes are on trend for spring 2025 in both fashion and home decor, but whether it’s stripes, floral designs, or abstract motifs, adding patterns will make a statement in any room.
Try mixing and matching different prints to create a look that reflects your design style.

By adding in some stripes and other prints, you can instantly elevate your home’s decor and create a fresh look for the warmer months.
4. Update your bedroom with new bedding
Spring is the perfect time to freshen up your bedroom for the warmer months ahead with new bedding in lighter tones and textures.
Adding layered bedding in neutral tones is a great way to update your bedroom for spring while retaining a feeling of coziness, as shown in this beautiful space.
Here’s a gorgeous spring bedroom with layered bedding and pillows in light spring hues:
Or, you can simply refresh your look by switching out your heavy winter blankets, throws, and pillows with lighter-weight and lighter-toned versions.

I love white bedding year-round, but especially in spring and summer, because it makes the bedroom feel calm and cool.
If you’re looking for spring bedding for 2025, Serena & Lily and Pottery Barn both have a beautiful selection of bedding, including linen duvet covers and sheets.
5. Rearrange the furniture
One of the easiest ways to update your home for spring is to rearrange the furniture — especially in the living room. This simple tweak can make a huge difference in how your home looks and feels.
Rearranging the furniture only costs a few minutes of time (and maybe a few sore muscles), but it can return dividends in satisfaction, making you fall in love with your home again.
Not only does moving the furniture change the look of your home, it can change the way you use and live in your spaces during the warmer months.

6. Soften your space with color
Another way to welcome spring to your home is with softer hues that create a serene and calming atmosphere.
By incorporating pastel hues in your decor via throw pillows, blankets, curtains, or accent pieces, you can instantly soften the look and feeling of a space.

Pastel colors, such as light blues, soft pinks, and pale greens can add a touch of elegance and sophistication to a space, as shown in this beautiful master bedroom:

For a fresh spring look, think about adding some lush greens, sky blues, sunset pinks, and cloud whites to your spaces.
These shades also work well in creating a sense of lightness and airiness, perfect for transitioning from winter to springtime.
Light, pastel hues create a tranquil and inviting space that embraces the essence of spring. I love the light blush tones in this gorgeous master bathroom:
7. Freshen your mantel and shelves for spring
Flowers, foliage, or branches from your yard or garden or bought from the supermarket are an easy way to decorate a fireplace mantel or open shelving for spring.
Mixing a mirror with smaller artwork and adding a couple of candle sticks and greenery creates a stylish spring mantel that will look beautiful through summer and into fall.

Spring mantel styling tips
Here are a few styling tips for decorating a mantel, shelf, or any surface.
- If you don’t have a TV above your fireplace, create a central focal point with a mirror or large piece of artwork.
- Use a stack of books to raise objects off the mantel. If you don’t like the way the book bindings look, turn them around to reveal their lighter-colored pages.
- Combine items in groups of threes–preferably with a tall item, a shorter sculptural item, and a horizontal item.
- Balance hard and soft objects, as well as things with different textures, colors, tones, and styles.
- Layer by placing some things in front of others and some off to the side, to create more depth and give your mantel a natural look.
- Edit — move things around until you achieve the look you’re going for.
Target, Marshalls, and TJ Maxx are some of my favorite places to find affordable spring decor for the home.
8. Update your artwork
One of my favorite spring decor ideas is to switch out artwork for something that reflects the fun, carefree feeling of spring and summer.
Any space can benefit from an instant spring refresh with a new piece of artwork. Here, a large landscape print adds a fresh touch to the entryway:

9. Let in the light
As the hours of sunshine increase each day, this is the perfect time to maximize the amount of light in your home by replacing heavy or dark curtains with white or lighter-colored versions — or removing them altogether.
In the same vein, think about tweaking your artificial lighting sources, too. Replacing lamps and light fixtures with new ones can give an entirely new look to a room.

We recently added the pendant lights shown in the space below to our kitchen and I love how they instantly transformed our home.

10. Freshen up the patio and porch
The patio is one of my favorite spaces to decorate for spring. I love the fresh feeling of a few new pillows and decorative accents on the patio.
Here’s a look at our covered patio, decorated with fresh blue and white and an abundance of flowers and plants for spring and summer.
Adding outdoor curtains and a few pillows and decorative pieces makes this area feel like an extension of our home.

Thanks

April 11, 2020 at 5:00 pmHi Karen! They’re the Rustique Bamboo shades from Overstock; unfortunately, the company has discontinued these exact shades with the dark vertical stitching and is now carrying a version called Petite Rustique with lighter stitching, which can also be found at Amazon, Walmart and Home Depot. I recently found the following shades that look very similar to mine, but I can’t speak as to their quality: https://rstyle.me/+gZbTBHNd5jXJPeieqg8hLg
