Yay! It’s finally March, and with it comes the season of spring! Depending on where you live, March 1 can bring different levels of excitement, but for us Nebraskans, it's a signal of hope—brighter days, warmer weather, and much-needed vitamin D. As we embrace the new season, it’s the perfect time to explore fresh spring decor ideas to brighten up our homes and surroundings.

Indoor Spring Decorating Ideas

• Let natural light brighten your space.
• Wash your windows for a fresh feel.
• Consider doing some light spring cleaning for an extra clean look.

Remove Heavy, Warm Items

Spring is all about lightness and freshness, so swap out heavy winter decor such as faux fur throws, chunky blankets, and dark-colored pillows. A few simple accents, like fresh spring pillows or pastel throws, can breathe new life into your space. You don’t need to spend much—check places like Marshalls or TJ Maxx for affordable finds.

Declutter and Keep it Minimal

One of my favorite spring decorating ideas is focusing on a minimalist style. Choose one or two focal areas in your home (e.g., your kitchen or entryway) and add a few seasonal items. Less really is more, and a clean, clutter-free space always feels fresh. Remember, simplicity is key to successful spring decor.

Freshen Up Your Bathroom with Scents

The bathroom is often overlooked, but with a few updates, it can feel just as spring-ready as the rest of your home. Swap out heavy winter scents for lighter, spring-inspired ones. Add a faux plant or floral arrangement by the sink for a touch of green. A diffuser with fresh scents like lavender or citrus will keep your bathroom smelling wonderful.

Outdoor Spring Decor Tips

Now that your indoors are fresh and ready for spring, let’s move outside! Here are a few outdoor spring decorating ideas to spruce up your curb appeal.

Clean Your Outdoor Space

Just like the inside of your house, a clean entryway sets the tone. Grab a broom or power washer (if you're feeling ambitious) to freshen up your patio or entry area. A clean space makes your outdoor spring decor stand out even more.

Update Patio Furniture & Add Throw Pillows

Bring your patio furniture out and give it a spring update with a few new throw pillows. Bright, pastel-colored cushions can add a fresh vibe to your outdoor space, and small faux plants make great additions to any table.

Create a Musical Atmosphere

Add an Alexa dot or Bluetooth speaker to your outdoor space to create a seamless music experience. You can connect it to your indoor speaker for consistent music both inside and out. After all, good music is one of the best spring decorating ideas to create a relaxing atmosphere.

Rake and Re-mulch Your Yard

One of the most impactful tasks when it comes to spring decorating ideas for your garden is to rake away the leftover fall leaves and reapply fresh mulch. This simple task can revitalize your yard and make everything look neat and tidy.

Update Your Planters

Give your planters a spring makeover by replacing the winter-evergreens with cheerful forsythia, pussy willow, or real pansies. Craft stores often have 50% off sales for faux flowers, so be on the lookout to add fresh greenery and color to your outdoor space.

Add a Garden Flag for a Fun Touch

Garden flags are a quick and fun way to update your outdoor spring decor. They may remind you of grandma’s garden, but they add a playful charm to your yard. For extra ambiance, use solar lights to illuminate your flag at night, creating a welcoming walkway no matter the time of day.

Update Your Entry Envy Sign

Don’t forget to update your Entry Envy sign! With our March kits being bright, cheery, and perfect for spring, it's an easy way to give your entryway a fresh look. Our monthly refill kits ensure that your sign is always in season and adds a personal touch to your home.

After a long winter, entry mats can look a little tired. Swap out your old mats for fresh, spring-themed ones. Layering rugs in your entryway can also add visual interest and give your space a welcoming feel.
