With the start of a new season often begins the start of a new home decorating project! Spring home décor is exciting because there is usually a focus on colour and injecting a fresh lease of life into existing rooms. 

Luckily, spring decorating ideas don’t always have to be huge or expensive. Little updates here and there can make a big difference without breaking the bank.

So, how can I decorate my house in the spring?

With all this in mind, let’s look at our top 25 spring decorating ideas for 2023…

Be creative with pattern

Make a mural on your walls for an interesting and eye-catching spring design. Use a stencil if you find a shape you love or be daring and use freehand to create something totally individual and bespoke!

Go with the floral

One of our favourite things about springtime is the abundance of colourful wildflowers popping up all over the place. Be sure to bring plenty inside each room to give your interior an instant spring refresh.

Coat your front door

Your front door is the first symbol of your home’s interior. Therefore, giving it a lick of paint is a great starting point for your spring update. Why not opt for a colour that represents the signs of spring, such as buttercup yellow or grass green? 

 

…and your internal doors 

Similarly, painting your internal doors can make just as big of an impact on your interior. Doors get pushed, banged, and scraped often so giving them a spruce up is sure to give a much-needed refresh. Try matching the colour of your door to the walls and ceilings for a blended look or make a statement with something completely different and clashing.

Make your artwork pop

Sometimes a picture frame alone just doesn’t do justice to a beautiful piece of artwork. Therefore, why not make a second frame using wall paint? Pick out one of the brightest colours in the print to really make it pop against a neutral wall colour.

Dare to be nude

Peach and nude colours are often underused in home interiors, but their effect can be both refreshing and comforting at the same time. Nude shades work well with natural fabrics such as wood, wicker, and hessian flooring.

Play with pink

Pale pink wall paint can make a living room appear whimsical and romantic, especially in a bright open space with lots of natural light flooding in. Try an accent wall first and if you fall in love then follow suit with the other walls and ceiling too.

Marvel in mint

Want a minty fresh appearance for spring? Then, update your bathroom walls in mint green for an interior that is chic, stylish and very on-trend. Mint shades work especially well with monochrome accessories, as well as antique brass finishings.

Create some calm

Amidst all the busy activity of spring, you might fancy creating a haven of comfort and calm in your bedroom space to give you a place to escape and rest. If so, opting for a neutral colour scheme featuring plenty of cream and beige can help you achieve your serene space.

Showcase the staircase

Adding fresh colour to your staircase can create a dramatic focal point to completely re-define your hallway and entrance. Choose a colour to match a neighbouring door or a piece of furniture to ensure a consistency is achieved throughout the space.

Go wild with yellow

Yellow is a symbol of spring because of its association with baby chicks, daffodils, and sunshine. It’s a cheerful and uplifting colour, which can be particularly welcome after a long, dark winter. Therefore, you can’t give your home a much more spring-like appearance than decorating it with yellow wall paint! From soft Sun Sparkle to rich Yam, there are many yellow shades to choose from.

Shade your shelving

Sometimes you don’t need to paint a whole wall to achieve a nice new look. Simply painting your shelves can add a new dimension to your storage spaces, and also give a new perspective to all the items featured on the shelves.

Get personal with artwork

This spring, why not give your home a real personal touch by creating some self-made artwork to hang on your walls? On a nice spring day, get yourself outdoors with an easel, a canvas, and a set of paints, and simply paint what you see. There’s no better way to bring spring inside.

Paint your panelling

We know that panelling can add lots of texture and depth to a wall, but when you add a further layer of colour, this texture is accentuated even further. Earthy colours such as Frosted Sage or Good Earth green look super against wooden flooring and staircases.

Pimp your brickwork

As the spring days come around, we find ourselves spending more time outdoors, which means we can make the most of our gardens and courtyard spaces. You can instantly update the vibe of your outside space, no matter how small it is, by painting the brickwork using premium quality masonry paint.

Soften the lines

Life doesn't always follow a straight line. So, neither should your paint colour. A scalloped painting technique is an artistic way of adding both colour and pattern to a wall. It offers a much softer appearance than a straight line or zigzag would, which is why it is highly favoured in nurseries and bedrooms.

Follow the rainbow

Just like the rainbow after the rain, a good dose of bright colour might be just what you need after a dark and dreary winter period. Don't be shy - be inspired by the rainbow and try paint effects using a whole spectrum of springtime colours.

Go 50/50

Dividing your wall in half with two separate colour shades will certainly make a bold interior statement, but maybe that’s just what you need this spring? In general, when adopting this technique, the bolder or darker colour should be at the bottom half of the wall for balance and to ground the room.

Upcycle your bathtub

Bored of the colour of your freestanding bath or feel it’s getting a bit rusty around the edges? Simply choose a new colour shade of your choice and get painting. You will just need to make sure you have high-quality metal paint to hand to get the most professional look and finish. The new bathroom feels here we come.

Sort your storage

Getting your storage in order is a huge part of perfecting your spring clean. Removing clutter and getting things organised can make a really big difference to your mental clarity and overall well-being. Plus, once you have sorted your storage space, you can have fun with the colour of it. Dark shelving will give contrast and depth to your room, as well as a dramatic contrast against wooden flooring and a white ceiling.

Get tropical

Turn your outside space into a tropical paradise in time for summer using small flashes of neons and bright colours. Here, the splash of vibrant pink brings the courtyard alive, while the coloured chairs and fairy lights all add to the holiday feel.

Spruce your shed

Your shed might look a bit chaotic on the inside, but that doesn’t mean the outside needs to follow suit. You can hide a multitude of sins with a perfectly painted shed that looks sweet and angelic to visitors and passers-by. Choose a subtle, earthy shade to blend into your garden background, or opt for something vibrant to catch everyone’s eye.
