Get spring into your living room!
The days are getting longer, the sun is showing up more often, and nature is waking up from its winter sleep. Time to bring that fresh spring feeling into your home! With a few simple adjustments, you can get your living room ready for the new season. Read on and discover handy tips for a fresh and bright living room in spring.
Change the arrangement of your sofa
During the winter months, you often turn your living room inward: the sofa faces the fireplace or TV. But why not do it differently? Place your sofa so that you look outside and enjoy the natural light and the view of the garden or balcony. Do you have a modular sofa? Then moving it around is easy. But even with a fixed corner sofa, there are frequently possibilities. Try moving the sofa away from the wall and more into the space. Just a quarter turn can make a big difference! While you are shifting furniture, this is immediately a great opportunity to clean those areas that are otherwise difficult to reach.
Light and fresh colors in your living room
Light plays a big role in the atmosphere of your living room. A white base is an ideal starting point and immediately makes your space look fresher. Combine this with pastel shades for a soft look, or add a few bright colors for real eye-catchers. This can be done by painting a wall, but also with accessories such as paintings, vases, or cushions in fresh spring colors. Do you want a bright living room? Then choose airy fabrics and light colors that make the room seem bigger and fresher.
Store Winter Accessories for a Fresh Living Room
Say goodbye to winter coziness and put away those thick wool plaids, abundant candlelight and heavy rugs. Choose for airy fabrics such as cotton and linen in light shades. Replace cushion covers and plaids with fresh pastel colors or cheerful bright shades. This will immediately give your living room a fresh and light look. A tidy living room also contributes to a spring feeling. Minimize your decoration and pick a fresh, airy style.
Bringing fresh spring flowers into your home
Nothing brings spring into your home more than a beautiful vase of fresh flowers. Set out a large, clear vase and combine budding branches such as magnolia, catkins, or olive with colorful spring flowers such as tulips and hyacinths. Anything budding in nature and ready to bloom gives your living room a vibrant and fresh look. And as a bonus: it smells great! Did you know that flowers and plants also contribute to healthy indoor air quality?
With these simple changes, you'll bring spring into your home and enjoy a bright, fresh and cheerful living room. Keep spring coming!
