11 practical tips for decorating the house for the spring season

Behold, it has been a year since when I complaint that the winter is not gone and I am waiting eager the coming of spring which makes me feel energized as only it knows how to do. And still I do not find my place and still I am watching very carefully the weather reports, hoping that my favorite season will decide to surprise me.

The pleasant feeling of freedom, fresh air, fragrant smell of the cruel grass and of the blooming hyacinths, the burning sun which smiles to us with love from the top of the sky – all these spring feelings can be transformed into an integral part of our lives even before the coming of the spring by through some simple and highly efficient decorative tricks which we can apply in just a few steps during the decoration process of the house.

The arrangement and preparation of the space

1. The entire process begins – how else? -with the warming which, in this case, is called the spring cleaning. This step involves sorting and throwing the old and useless things, refurbishment of the defect furniture and removing the dust from the hidden corners of the house.
2. Once finished the spring-cleaning you will find that the whole house seems brighter, more spacious and airy and it might inspire you to a new arrangement of the furniture. Change the place of the couch in the living room, put the TV on another wall, choose another area for the dining area and you will see how the atmosphere of the whole house will be changed after this changes.
3. If you do not smile to moving the furniture, you can try refreshing the decor applying the following trick: place in one of the remote corners of the living room a decorative object or a piece of furniture in an intense shade, vivid: a chair, a large vase, an inner pot of a plant or a painting of a large size. This powerful colored object will capture the attention creating a false perception of the distance and consequently inducing the feeling of enlarged visual space. This decorative trick is often used by specialists in interior designs.

The importance of lighting

1. Does anyone imagine the spring in other way than bathing by the sunshine? I doubt that. For me, at least, the spring is synonymous with the sunny and joyful days. If you want to hurry the coming of the spring, do not forget the importance of lighting. Give up, therefore, on the heavy drapery of the windows which during the winter, they also served as a thermal barrier. Keeping just a set of vaporous and diaphanous curtains will help to illuminate intense the space and its enlargement. You get an extra point choosing the curtains with floral print, inspired by the spring. If you think that giving up on the drapery you give up on privacy, exposing your house to the eyes from the outside in the evening hours; try to fit a set of blinds or fabric blinds that can be fold up easily with the sunrise.
2. If you have already solved the problem of the curtains, what would be to extend the magic of the floral imprint to the upholstered furniture: sofa, armchairs, chairs or banquets? Do not give up on the old furniture,just simply cover it in new slip covers,in new light shades with Spring-Summer print. Let’s see how flourishing will become the whole house!
3. In addition to the natural lighting, the local lighting sources have a great importance, with which help you can highlight the entire decor, especially in the hours after the dark comes. The wall bracket, decorative lamps, spots, lamp post – are just a few sources of local lighting can beautify your house, helping you to accentuate and highlight the new Spring-Summer decoration sence.
4. Another simple trick to increase the lightness is the strategic placement of mirrors inside the house. I am sure that you already know that a mirror has the ability to reflect the light, so do not hesitate to hang a mirror on the opposite wall to the window of a darker room to make it looks bigger and brighter.
5. Like mirrors, the white color increases and brightens the space where it is used. So if you plan a cosmetic repairfor this spring, paints the ceilings of the room in white.

The color palette inspired by the spring

This step involves a greater investment and this is for those who need a more extensive renovation since it requires the renewal of the finishing. For the walls it is recommended choosing the light shades, bright as white, pale yellow, beige, lime color etc. You can apply a fresh coat of waterproof paint or you can dress the walls in a simple decorative wallpaper or with a joyful print.And if you do not want to give up the current color of the walls, you can refresh it by applying some color accents in bright colors. In case that you intend to give also a new face to the floor, choose a hardwood floor or sandstones tile in light and pleasant tones  with which you will create the illusion of space and light.

1. Do not forget, however, that a whole room decorated in pastel shades may seem lifeless and boring. Therefore it would be better to stock up on some colorful decorative elements. Very affordable and easy to integrate into the decor the decorative pads, blankets, mats, wicker chests and knitting baskets, vases, pots or paintings.
2. The most suitable colors for inducing the specific status mood of spring, in the opinion of psychologists, are yellow, orange, green and shades of them. I am sure that you will be able to incorporate them into the house decor as various decorative elements listed above, especially if they are among your favorite colors. But be careful not to abuse of the power of these bright colors; use them only as accent colors, keeping a neutral background for the rest of the decor.
