1. First impressions

If your front door is looking a little handled, buying a new doorknob, a brass letterbox or a stainless-steel house number are small touches that instantly make your home feel more welcoming. If you have a front garden, give it a little sprucing up with new plants and fresh lick of paint on the window ledges.

2. Outdoors-in

Spring is that first sighting of the flowers emerging: The grass is looking greener and the birds are singing. Make the extra effort to bringing the outdoors-in by introducing indoor plants, it’s a low-effort/high-reward to connect with spring. If it isn’t possible to bring in natural plants, you can alternatively go with leafy wall decals, which can decorate any space in minutes.

3. Statement colours

Another way of getting your décor ready for spring is introducing statement colours. This can be achieved by investing in a colourful piece of furniture or styling a wall with contemporary wallpaper. Get your florals-for-spring fix with bright cottage flowers or soften a look with a delicate blossom pattern, both a sure-fire way to dust away the winter blues and breathe new life into your home.

5. Light and airy

After months of huddling by the fire, you must be ready to breathe some fresh air and enjoy the sunlight. The easiest way to brighten a room is to maximise natural daylight by cleaning your windows. If you have large or small windows, strategically placing a mirror nearby can also amplify daylight.
