Spring fling: styling tips for a new season

When it comes to the seasons, it’s hard not to play favourites.

The Greenhouse Interiors team unashamedly admit to being spring and summer lovers – the bright tones it lends itself to, and the pure vibrancy of the season warms our hearts.

There is something quite magical about the change of seasons.

The simple joys of curling up in front of an autumn fire, rugging up for a wintery walk, or witnessing an explosion of spring colour swiftly counteract any thoughts we might have of heading north for the winter.

It’s all about embracing the seasonal changes and taking cues from Mother Nature.

Such changes can be embraced within your own four walls too.

Here are some hints on how to style your home for spring.

Spring – it’s all about rejuvenation.

And while the outdoors is abuzz with new life, this same feel can also be applied to interiors.

Introduce a fresh season ambience inside the home by packing away the heavy fabrics for next year, throwing open the doors, and making the most of the season by adding as many vessels of sweetly scented blooms as you can.

It can be simple as one daffodil in bathroom that makes the difference.

Moody hues should be replaced with a lighter colour palette, and crisp whites interspersed with bursts of brighter hues work beautifully.

As spring is the season for new beginnings, it’s an ideal time to complete that paint job you’ve been contemplating, or even reconfiguring your artwork or furniture for a fresh new look.

It’s all about escaping your winter hibernation, having a bounce in your step, and celebrating the indoor-outdoor connection.

When it comes to styling for the season, it’s not about re-configuring your entire home.

Let Mother Nature dictate your theme, so work with what is already on offer. You only need the smallest of touches to hint that the season has changed.
