1. Bring on the Blooms (But Make It Easy)

If you’ve ever kept a plant alive for more than a month, I applaud you. For the rest of us, faux florals are the way to go. Swap out those winter greens for soft, wildflower stems, lavender sprigs, or some happy little daisies. Pop them in an old crock, a weathered tin can, or—if you’re feeling fancy—a vintage pitcher. Boom. Instant spring vibes.

2. Lighten Up, Literally

We all love those cozy winter throws, but now’s the time to swap them for lighter, breezier textures. Think soft linen runners, grain sack pillow covers, or a light cotton throw draped over your favorite chair. Bonus points if it looks casually tossed, like you just happen to live in a perfectly curated farmhouse magazine spread.

3. Add a Few Rustic Spring Accents

Nothing too crazy—just a few small swaps to make your space feel fresh. A wooden birdhouse, a distressed bunny figurine, or a rustic watering can filled with greenery can work wonders. And if you’re thinking, Do I really need another decorative watering can? The answer is yes. Yes, you do.

4. Swap Out Those Candles & Scents

Let’s retire the cinnamon spice and pine-scented candles (love you, but it’s time) and bring in something light and fresh. Lavender, citrus, or honey scents can instantly make your space feel like a spring morning. And if you’re like me and have a deep, possibly concerning love for flameless candles, switch them to warm cream or soft pastels for an easy seasonal update.

5. Subtle Easter & Garden Touches (Because We’re Classy Like That)

Now, I’m not saying you need to turn your home into an Easter explosion—but a few little nods to the season can be really cute. A woven basket with some painted wooden eggs? Adorable. A simple rustic bunny tucked on a shelf? Perfection. A full-blown collection of ceramic rabbits staring at you from every corner? Maybe dial it back a bit.

Spring, But Make It Effortless

At the end of the day, decorating for spring should feel fun, not like another thing on your to-do list. A few small swaps, some fresh textures, and a couple of seasonal accents can completely refresh your home—without spending hours rearranging furniture or questioning your life choices in the seasonal aisle at Target.
