Updating Your Home for Spring

Even though many parts of California enjoy warmer weather all year round, it’s still nice to refresh our homes with the changing of the seasons. With spring right around the corner, the Deja Blue Home Staging & Design team is here to give you some tips to help you update your home for the season of renewal.

Hunter Douglas Pirouette® Window Shadings, updating your home for spring near Redwood City, California (CA).

First, the Fabrics

Switching out heavy, darker-colored fabrics for more light-weight materials in spring-themed colors is a quick, easy way to welcome spring into your home. Stow away any cable knit or wool blankets and replace them with cotton blends or linen. You can keep a room’s theme neutral and still enjoy color by layering shades of the same tone—think white with pale pinks or lavender.

You can also change up your window coverings. Spring is a time for sunshine and fresh air, and no shade makes your home feel light and airy the way sheer shadings do. Pirouette® Window Shadings are an excellent choice for a refined, contemporary aesthetic. They offer exceptional light and privacy control with adjustable fabric vanes attached to a sheer backing. They also offer protection against damaging UV rays.

Add Some Color

Baskets are a cute way to keep clutter at bay. Wicker or woven baskets fit any decor theme and can be lined with fun fabrics for a pop of color. Adding fresh flowers is another unmistakable way to say “Spring is here!” You can make large centerpieces or place a few bud vases around your home. Swap out your throw pillows for lighter hues and bold patterns. Even your candles need to be updated with the new season. Send the pumpkin, cinnamon, and nutmeg scents packing and bring out lavender, florals, and bright citrus scents.

An entryway vignette can be as simple or complex as you’d like and will always brighten your mood when you see it. Find a great statement piece, like a vintage writing desk or an ornate stand, and add floral accents, candles, and a letter board with a happy phrase.

The Great Outdoors

Don’t forget about your home’s exterior. Try putting a new mat in front of your door, and adding new, colorful accents to your porch or patio’s decor. Repaint your front door in a cheery shade. Add window boxes or add a new coat of stain and some fresh blooms to existing ones. Give your outdoor furniture a deep cleaning, and upgrade cushions and side tables.
