Spring is coming ya’ll and every year I get anxious and excited for the beautiful spring weather! Even though we always get a last spring snowfall before Spring actually starts coming, I love hearing the birds sing early in the morning and I love that it stays lighter outside longer.
But today I am not here to talk about how much I love spring but am here to talk about 12 ways to prepare your home for Spring and what you can do to get your home prepped and ready for the spring season. Spring time is my favorite time to decorate, brighten up my home and get ready for the warmer months ahead.
Prepare Your Home for Spring
1. Bring out the Flowers
Bringing out my fake seasonal flowers to brighten my living room or bedroom is my favorite way of decorating and getting my home prepped for Spring time. You can either prepare your home for Spring by placing real flowers around in your home or by buying some pretty colorful fake flowers to add into your space.
Also, don’t forget that greenery is great to add into your home as well for Spring!
2. Spring Decor
Bring out the Spring Decor! Bringing out my spring decor for the season is my favorite part about getting my home ready for Spring. I love changing out the winter decor around my home for a more airy, fresh decor start. Plus there are so many cute spring decorating items to make your home feel perfect for the Spring Season.
3. Add Color
Another one of my best tips when it comes to preparing your home for Spring, is by adding color. Try adding some fun spring colors, such as aqua, pink, whites, blues, greens and even yellows into your home to make your home pop with the Spring vibes!
There really is no right or wrong when it comes to picking out pops of colors in with your Spring Decor. Just pick your favorite color and add it in with your everyday spring decor and have fun!
I love aqua, so I add little pops of color of aqua in with my neutral decor to add some color to my home. You can do this either with colored throw pillows, vases, wall art or some fun curtains to brighten up your space.
4. Refresh with Paint
Refreshing with paint doesn’t have to mean painting a whole new room. Unless you’re feeling like a go-getter! You can refresh your home with paint for Spring by painting your front door a different color. You can also, use paint to touch up your outside home where it is chipping or peeling.
5. Change Wall Art
Don’t forget that another great way to prepare your home for Spring is by changing out your wall art. Change out your wall art around your home to more spring/ summer decor to get your home ready for the warmer months.
6. Clean
Of Course, in order to prepare your home for Spring your have to do a Spring Cleaning in your home. If you don’t already have a Spring cleaning Checklist to help you get started, then you can grab one at the bottom of this post that is already created to help you mark to-do’s off of your list and help you be more organized.
Checklists are great for keeping me more organized as I mark off all of my to-do’s.
7. Front porch
Getting your front porch/patio ready for the spring is another great way to prepare your home. Most people are outside more, so by getting your front porch/patio ready you will be ready to have family and friends over for Summer BBQ’s or gatherings.
8. Yard Work
Another one of the 12 ways to prepare your home for Spring is by yard work. Whether you have a garden you are getting ready, cleaning out your gutters or garage, there is so much to do when it comes to prepping your yard for the warmer months.
9. Change Out Bedding
I always have a blast when it comes to changing out my bedding for the Spring time. I love it when I am storing and putting away our winter bedding and bringing out the Spring bedding. It puts a joy in my soul and I always feel like our bedroom gets a nice reset for the year.
10. Replace Old Filters
Replacing old filters is something we don’t tend to think about very often. But while you are cleaning your home prepping it for the warmer months ahead. Why not replace your old filters that have been sitting there collecting dirt and dust all winter long?
11. Declutter
I know, I know, decluttering! But you don’t have to declutter your entire house to prepare your home for Spring. I know for me there are certain areas in my home, whether they are bookshelves, a spare bedroom that has been neglected for the winter months or a corner that has accumulated clutter, that usually need some attention.
So, why not use the Spring prep to get that corner, bookshelf or bedroom back into it’s pristine condition by decluttering it?
12. Rearrange Furniture
Rearranging furniture is something that drives my husband crazy, but I love it because it always gives my room a fresh and new start. Try rearranging your furniture either in your bedroom, living room or dining room to create a whole new fresh look for the Spring Season.
