Bring in a fun color. My main living are is very open. In the living room I have varying shades of sage-y blue. I turned this color up a notch in my kitchen where I brought in more aqua tones. For spring I changed out my bird plate above the stove {which is still very spring-ish} with a really cute plate {believe it or not its plastic} that I found at Target. It looks great with the chevron painted fence above the cupboards and adds a bit of freshness.
For my mantle I added a few spring branches, and some Easter eggs. I tried to cover the utilitarian boxes with some burlap but it didn't come out very well so I left it off. It is so hard to decorate around these things and have it look nice. If you have any suggestions, please let me know!
I added a spring wreath to the front door. The tutorial is here.
And added a few other touches around the house.
So there you have it! Not earth shattering changes but just a few things here and there to help usher in the season. Changing things here and there with the seasons may seem like a waste of time to some but for me it helps me to appreciate the seasons throughout the year, shakes things up a bit and helps us to feel more content with what we have.
Happy Spring!
