Prepping your home for spring doesn’t have to mean a full-scale revamp. Read on for our simple tips and tricks for updating your space to match the season.
The most obvious way to channel spring in your home? Add a few pops of color. Jonathan Adler’s signature mid-century armchair comes in a variety of shades, fabrics, and finishes, making it a fabulous customizable addition to any room.
Not ready to commit to brand-new furniture? Consider swapping out your old accessories, like picture frames, candles, or throw pillows, for newer ones. CB2’s supersized Gwinn pillows feature a gold-foil star print on linen cases, which reverse to smooth blue chambray.
Go Green

What better time than spring to embrace environmentalism? Go sustainable with an understated accent table made from reclaimed pinewood and matte limestone, like this one from Pottery Barn.
The start of spring means summer is just around the corner. Prep your patio space for barbecues, dinner parties, and other get-togethers by investing in charming accent lighting, from strings of colored bulbs to weathered-zinc lanterns that can be hung or placed on tables or pathways.
Rethink Your Storage Situation

Reward yourself for all of that spring cleaning by investing in a few new storage options. A shelving unit that doubles as a cabinet will provide space for all of the things you want to show off—and the ones you’d rather not.
Celebrate the season by incorporating fresh additions like flowers and wreaths into your space. Have a bad track record with houseplants? Consider something like this do-it-yourself terrarium kit, which comes with five succulents of your choosing and a cut-glass sphere to hold them all.
Hang Some New Art
