How To Bring Spring Into Your Home

The cold months are over and spring is here. It's time to shake off the winter chill and embrace the warmer days and longer evenings. 

We've put together our top ways to make the most of spring in your home; it doesn't need to be complicated, difficult or expensive, some small tweaks can really make all of the difference in giving your space a spring facelift. 

Fragrance

If you don’t have a blooming garden, patio, balcony or outdoor space, scented candles and diffusers can help to bring the smell of spring into your home. Choose a fragrance with flowery or fruity notes for an aroma that reminds you of sunny days. 
Colour
Banish winter colours and replace your bedding, throws and cushions with lighter and brighter shades like greens or pastels. Adding a splash of colour can switch up the vibe in the room and can also be done relatively inexpensively. Replace vases, pots or mugs with fresh colours and switch up the throw on your bed to signal the seasonal shift. 

Spring Clear Out
Spring is the perfect time to clear out cupboards, wardrobes and other living spaces. It's amazing what a spring refresh around the home can do, helping you to start the season feeling reset and with more space.
Bring The Outside In
We are very partial to spring flowers from Stamford's Friday market over here at Iris & Violet! Picking up fresh flowers brings life to the spaces in your home and is a great way to add colour to a room. If you're missing an outdoor space, why not start a herb garden on your windowsill?
Texture
As the weather warms up, changing the textures in the house can completely change the feeling in your home. You might opt for natural fibres like cotton or bring some greenery into the room in a textured plant pot.
