12 Fresh Spring Decor Ideas

Welcome the new season with fresh blooms, pastel palettes, and a surplus of greenery.

It's been a long, cold winter, and we’re ready for relaxing days soaking up some vitamin D. There's no better way to welcome the new season than by giving your home a fresh update with a warm and inviting look. And the good news? Incorporating new elements into your home decor doesn't have to put a dent in your wallet. Whether you’d like to simply add a select table centerpiece or go for a whole home revamp, we’ve got some egg-cellent ideas for you, from fresh flower arrangements to soft-hued color palettes to the inclusion of a few darling critter figurines. And we’re sharing some chic ideas on how to swap out a few decor items like baskets, blankets, or a dinnerware set. However you choose to put a spring in your step, these 12 home decor ideas will revive any space.

If you’re tired of the same faux spring decorations, add your own colorful flair to something from your backyard. This Easter pom-pom tree is as fresh as it is funky. "It's a beautiful way to add a handmade touch while staying elegant," says Brittany Watson Jepsen, founder and creative director of The House That Lars Built.

Lori Rhode personalized her console table for spring by conjuring up all the best visions of the season. "An abundance of bunnies, blossoms, and baskets of greenery were cohesively arranged and meant to represent the start of Easter," she explains.

For home and gardening enthusiast Haze Navarro, spring is the most exciting time to spruce up the home. "The season offers plenty of opportunities to mix classic with campy while still bringing a fresh look to the table," she says. Opt for a table display that contrasts with the existing color palette, like these two adorable statement wired bunnies that are joyously impossible to miss.

If you’ve mastered the sophisticated neutral look, this chic mantel display might spark a few ideas. "The inspiration for my Easter mantel came from the cute wooden garland," says blogger Lori Hanrehan, who describes her home decor style as casual French country with a touch of English cottage. "Clay pots filled with wooden eggs, vintage books, soft blooms, and candles blend together beautifully to create a simple but cheerful holiday display!"

Pink blossoms are perhaps the most iconic spring motif. Take a few notes from Lory Bernstein's Easter table display by pairing pretty pink blossoms with contrasting teal dinnerware for a look that is brimming with charm.

How many flowers is too many? According to Lenox's chief creative officer Fawn Ostriak. you can never have enough. Freshen up your spring table by styling colorful flowers with traditional dishware. "Lush floral patterns and colors will provide that perfect spring aesthetic," adds Ostriak.

If you’re a farmhouse-decor enthusiast, this entry is for you. Raffia baskets filled with pastel-colored flowers create a stunning welcome-home moment. "My home has a modern traditional style with cozy, classic elements," says decorator and home stylist Laura Savini. "I love styling my door basket with pretty florals in my entry. It is a welcoming view I love to change up throughout the year."

Inspired by 1950s interiors, Meri Meri's Olivia Hyde used gingham cups, rickrack napkins, and charming honeycomb characters in a nostalgic sorbet-hued palette that has an element of playfulness to it.

You can never be too extra when it comes to adding decorative baskets and flowers in your living room. Home decorator and content creator Margy Richter's style is proof. She uses springtime as an excuse to "pull out all the beautiful, colorful tulips and florals," she says. A daybed can turn into a curated springtime vignette, complete with vintage finds that are repurposed for floral arrangements.

For lifestyle blogger, Jenna DiMaggio, pairing blue and white is a tried-and-true way to brighten up the bedroom each season. "The colors are a classic pairing, but they keep our bedroom looking fresh and bright." Flowers that lean into your chosen color scheme always add an extra touch of lightness.

And if you’re not finished with the blue and white look (we clearly aren't), this side table, topped with chinoiserie and matching eggs, adds a classic touch to any living room. "Blue and white decor is one of the most popular color combinations," says designer and stylist Lory Bernstein. And we know why.

Style your cocktail table this season, grouping decor together on a tray. "I love to start with a tray, add a vase with seasonal flowers and greenery, then taller candlesticks, and usually a fun accent like a bunny or a nest for spring," says decorator Sheila Trapp. Hot tip: Pair items that differ in height and color for added variation.
