Want to bring the spring feeling into your home? These 5 interior design tips will definitely help you do it
The days are getting longer, the birds are singing again and there have already been a number of lovely warm days: it's spring!
Winter is over and this is a good time for change. Many people are cleaning their homes intensively and it is time for a new fresh start. This is also often the time to give your interior a small makeover and get it ready for the new season.
Why is spring all about change?
Spring is often seen as the perfect time to renovate the house, get to work in the garden and take on other projects, but why? First, nature literally and figuratively begins to awaken. Plants begin to bloom, trees begin to bud, flowers spring from the ground and birds begin to sing again. These visible changes literally give a sense of a new beginning.
Secondly, the renewal gives a mental boost. After months of being indoors, the temperature is starting to become pleasant enough to go outside. Where it was mainly dark and cold in the winter months, it is now warm and light and the extra sunlight simply provides extra energy.
Finally, spring used to be a time for a thorough cleaning of the house. After months of closed windows and fireplaces smoking in the house, it was time to clean it all out and bring in some nice fresh air during spring. This tradition still lives on in the form of spring cleaning.
5 tips to make your interior spring-proof
It is much easier than you think to prepare your interior for spring. With a few small adjustments you can already make a big difference. Below you will find 5 tips to prepare your interior for the new season. This way you literally bring the fresh and light spring feeling into your home!
Tip 1: light colours and fresh accents
Because spring is all about longer days, sunshine and awakening nature, this works perfectly with bringing light colours and fresh accents into your home. Bring cushions, plaids and other accessories such as a beautiful vase into your home with cheerful and light colours such as yellow or turquoise. Combining pastel colours with natural shades also works very well. Another beautiful trend that we have noticed is the use of tone-on-tone colours: incorporating a colour in different shades into your interior.
Tip 2: make sure there is enough light in the house
The short dark days are over. Let your body know by providing more light in your home. Open those curtains or use light window coverings to get extra light in your home. Mirrors also make spaces feel bigger and unconsciously bring extra light into your home.
Tip 3: bring greenery inside
An obvious tip, bring greenery inside now that everything is growing and blooming again! Greenery in the house improves your mood and also brings more life into the house. Get new plants, flowers or dried flowers in the house. Easter branches also always do well in the run-up to Easter.
Tip 4: minimize and organize
Because spring is all about tidying up and renewing, this is also the time to store or get rid of old stuff. Use storage bins, rearrange furniture and tidy up. This ensures that a new energy flows through the house and lets spaces breathe figuratively.
Tip 5: Start a new project
The beginning of spring is the time to start a new project. Beautiful decking tiles on the balcony, getting the garden ready for the summer, starting a vegetable garden and enjoying fresh fruit in the summer or, for example, tackling the living room with Flexlijsten for example, hint hint 😉
