The Home Sales Event ends soon! Save up to 30% on outdoor furniture, springy decor, and more today.
Spring! The real start of the new year. It's when newness is felt from all around, everything feels softer, and a different kind of light shines into your home, illuminating all corners and spaces. The fresh perspective this season brings also poses new questions. Does that chair really need to be there? When was the last time those skirting boards were dusted? Is the decor giving the right energy? These are all your cues to shake things up to make way for new beginnings. Mother Nature wills it so, after all.
Let this spring home refresh guide be the first step to breathing new life into your home this season. And don't wait! You can save up to 30% off right now on many things on your wish list with Etsy's Spring Home Sales Event* from now only until April 15. All you have to do is get shopping.
Storage and organization for spring cleaning
First thing's first: it's time for a deep spring clean. Declutter your space, address your pile of denial, and get strategic about how you can really get the most out of your space. Once you've eliminated what isn't sparking joy, you're going to need storage to give all your things their own designated place. Large storage options can be a showcase in a room, while small options will prove themselves just as hard-working. Drawer dividers, hidden storage solutions, and hanging baskets are organization heroes. Once everything is organized, you have your foundational decor and way more space to play with. Let the shuffling of furniture commence!

Spring home decor
A sure way to effortlessly switch things up is to replace cushion covers, sofa throws, or wall art with pieces that have seasonal styling power. These swaps are great investments; you already know this is a worthwhile piece to have, it's just a case of having a different version of it. Pops of color is what spring is all about, but you can also get with the spring spirit if neutral schemes are more your thing. Try adding subtle color with cornflower blue, dusty pink, faded green, and blissed out lemon.

Fresh spring scents for home and body
Spring evokes the memories of dewy sunny mornings, wet grass, and fresh air from wide open windows. Say goodbye to any relics of deep winter by switching out candles for spring appropriate options that have light and energy-giving scents. Give your sinks the spring treatment with elevated hand wash and moisturizing stations. Home fragrance sprays, reed diffusers, or incense will help set the mood and cleanse the palate for a spring-ready home.

Spring bed linens, towels, and pajamas
Nothing gives the fresh feeling more than brand-new bedsheets and bath towels. They also happen to be an inexpensive way to change up your bedroom or bathroom. If you're a stickler for hotel-style white bedding, a throw is just as good to mix things up without making drastic changes. Be sure to pre-air your bed linens on a washing line or a clothes horse outside (on a sunny day, of course) for that super spring fresh feeling.

SHOP: Cotton pajamas set from Indigowares, $92

Spring diningware
Also in the easy-peasy category for mood shifting is diningware. Dress the table for spring with new color schemes, handmade ceramic vases as your centerpiece, dinner plates, and stunning water jugs and glass tumblers. Hand-painted mugs adorned with spring flowers, scenes inspired by nature, and abstract bursts of color give the same energizing feeling we love this season for. Consider table runners for large dressers and other tabletops in your home, not just dining tables, which will give a softer feel to your foundational pieces.

Garden and patio furniture
Right now is the time to invest in garden furniture, giving you the whole of spring and summer to savor it. Sip your morning coffee from a new patio table and chair placed in the sunniest spot on your balcony, patio, yard, garden, or right by your front door (collapsible options are ideal for small spaces). Benches to watch the birds from, outdoor rugs, BBQ sets and accessories, or outdoor candles and cushions all have the ability to transform your outdoor space—and your daily routine, as you watch spring unfold right before your eyes.
