If you're itching to update your home without making a drastic change, here are ten easy ways to embrace

UTTERL rejuvenating about spring. Af
s and embrace the energy hat co
the spring season inside and out.
SPRINKLE IN BRIGHT
COLORS
Spring is a time of rebirth and
renewal in the outdoors, so
try having your interior mimic
this. While those dark colors
felt right in the winter, it's time
to swap them for pastels or
even bold neons. If you're really feeling daring, change
out some of your old dining room chairs for ones with a
pop of colour.
DECORATE WITH FLOWERS
One of the easiest ways to
update any room is to add
a bouquet of fresh flowers.
From bunches of daffodils and
tulips to sprigs of eucalyptus
and hyacinths, take advantage
of all those flowers at your
local grocery store. Decorating with fresh flowers is
easy and can be done in every room of your home.

USE LIGHTER FABRICS
Put away the heavy faux
fur throws and cable knit
blankets and replace them
with lighter fabrics, such
as cotton or linen. Crisp
neutrals can make a room
feel bigger and brighter,
and layering whites or pale tones can be a lovely way
to add a pop of colour while still keeping your space
neutral.
ADD GREENERY
It can be hard to keep plants
alive when winter sets in
and the daylight fades away.
If you've sacrificed a few
houseplants to the winter
season, replace them with
new greenery. Before you buy, make sure to pick the
right plants for your lighting to ensure they survive until
next spring.
