Warm, earthy browns help connect our interiors to the great outdoors and can be introduced into your home in a myriad of ways.<\/p>\n<h4>Purple<\/h4>\n<p>Lavender may now be making an appearance in your garden and you may wish to carry that through into your home. This rich colour oozes style and looks good all year round.<\/p>\n<h4>Green\/olive<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-11297\" src=\"https:\/\/d1s8n1udmr3gbj.cloudfront.net\/media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/31115533\/brighton-024-881x586.jpeg\" alt=\"the brighton large sofa in easy clean plush velvet juniper with wenge feet\" width=\"881\" height=\"586\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1s8n1udmr3gbj.cloudfront.net\/media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/31115533\/brighton-024-881x586.jpeg 881w, https:\/\/d1s8n1udmr3gbj.cloudfront.net\/media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/31115533\/brighton-024-768x511.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/d1s8n1udmr3gbj.cloudfront.net\/media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/31115533\/brighton-024.jpeg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 881px) 100vw, 881px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>From meadows to plants (both inside and out), green has an energy that radiates life, calm and positivity.

Who wouldn\u2019t want to bring the beauty of blossom into their home!<\/p>\n<h2>Spring d\u00e9cor ideas<\/h2>\n<p>Whether you like the idea of introducing a touch of Spring or would like to redecorate your room entirely, there are plenty of options available, and for a range of budgets. And from country cottages to contemporary apartments, and from your kitchen to your bathroom and bedroom, there\u2019s something out there for everyone and every home.<\/p>\n<h3>Switch up the soft furnishings<\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s start with some simple and cost-effective changes. Add a touch of Spring to your home through your soft furnishings \u2013 whether it\u2019s cushions or a throw, introducing some vibrant spring colours will make a real difference to the feel of your room. Think about layers \u2013 \u00a0for example, if you have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darlingsofchelsea.co.uk\/leather-sofas\">leather sofa<\/a>, some olive velvet or cotton cushions will add a stylish contrast. Equally, if you have wooden floors, a soft yellow rug will brighten your space in a celebration of the season.<\/p>\n<h3>Decorate your front door<\/h3>\n<p>While door d\u00e9cor used to be all about the festive season, these days you can enjoy a stylish door accessory all year round. From dried flowers to living green wreaths, you can buy a real range of garlands and foliage, or if you\u2019re feeling creative, you can make your own!<\/p>\n<h3>Switch up your tableware<\/h3>\n<p>Can you imagine anything more lovely than sitting down to a Spring-inspired table? Some fresh flowers, a new tablecloth and napkins and a new bright, colourful jug will make a real impact for minimum spend. If you\u2019d like to take it a little bit further, some new seat cushions will also make a real difference.<\/p>\n<h3>Loose sofa covers<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11175\" src=\"https:\/\/d1s8n1udmr3gbj.cloudfront.net\/media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/08174316\/amesbury_009_1.jpeg\" alt=\"amesbury_009_1\" width=\"1000\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1s8n1udmr3gbj.cloudfront.net\/media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/08174316\/amesbury_009_1.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/d1s8n1udmr3gbj.cloudfront.net\/media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/08174316\/amesbury_009_1-768x329.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The real advantage to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darlingsofchelsea.co.uk\/loose-covers\">loose cover sofa<\/a> is that you can change the sofa covers as and when you see fit. If you wanted to, you could have a range of sofa covers to suit each season! If you\u2019d like to change it up this Spring, take a look at the different fabrics available and see which colour and finish fits in with your Spring-inspired aesthetic. Check out our blog to find out more about\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.darlingsofchelsea.co.uk\/blog\/choose-loose-sofa-covers\">the benefits of a loose cover sofa<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Choosing seasonal colours<\/h3>\n<p>Colour can largely influence the aesthetic of your interior. If you like the idea of changing your wall colour to something that embodies Spring, you could either introduce a feature wall, drench your walls and ceiling in one colour or opt for wallpaper \u2013 the options are numerous! If a bright Spring colour feels a little overwhelming or intimidating, rather than completely change your interior, why not paint just one wall? Or rather than changing your wall colour, you could introduce your chosen shade through some furniture, for example a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darlingsofchelsea.co.uk\/kilburn-range-pview\">Petal footstool<\/a> or an accent chair in Plush Velvet Umber.<\/p>\n<h3>Decorating with pastel colours<\/h3>\n<p>Gentle pastels align themselves beautifully with the Spring season and are a great option if you don\u2019t want something too bright in your space. From duck egg blues to blossom pinks, introduce pastels through artwork, flowers and accessories, and if the colour works in your space and complements your existing d\u00e9cor, you can build it up, in your rugs, chairs and sofas. A\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.darlingsofchelsea.co.uk\/love-chairs\">love seat<\/a>\u00a0or an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.darlingsofchelsea.co.uk\/armchairs\">armchair<\/a>\u00a0in a soft pastel could provide a stylish contrast to your existing furniture and decor \u2013 but if you\u2019re not sure which shade to go for, pick up some paint charts or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.darlingsofchelsea.co.uk\/free-fabric-samples\">order up to eight free swatches<\/a>\u00a0from Darlings to see them in person before making any decisions.<\/p>\n<h3>Lighten your home through decluttering<\/h3>\n<p>This is the time of year to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darlingsofchelsea.co.uk\/blog\/spring-cleaning-checklist\">Spring clean<\/a> \u2013 removing anything unwanted, unused or unnecessary from your home to make way for anything new. Clutter can make your rooms feel smaller and less relaxing \u2013 the simple removal of items you haven\u2019t used for a while (and have no intention of using again) can give you the space you need to re-evaluate your interior \u2013 maybe changing your furniture round or overhauling it completely.<\/p>\n<h3>Embrace natural textures<\/h3>\n<p>Spring is the time of year when everyone starts to enjoy the great outdoors once more \u2013 and look at ways to bring it inside. Think of incorporating natural textures into your interiors such as woven baskets, linen throws and wooden tables, all of which connect you to the outdoors, even when you\u2019re not in it.<\/p>\n<h3>Decorating with botanicals<\/h3>\n<p>Create a calm and serene ambience in your space with the introduction of green in your interior. It could be something small such as some Eucalyptus leaves in a vase, some house plants or botanical-inspired prints, cushions or wallpaper, or a green fabric chair or sofa.<\/p>\n<p>Utilising the colour green helps to create a calming aesthetic and is known as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.darlingsofchelsea.co.uk\/blog\/biophilic-design-create\">biophilic design<\/a>, which strengthens the connection between the indoors and outdoors by working with plants and natural textures.

Alternative ideas could include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cotton flowers.<\/li>\n<li>House plants.<\/li>\n<li>If you have picture frames, change the frames to lighter, brighter designs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you have a functioning fire, think about artwork, ceramic plates and vases, all of which can bring a splash of colour into your space.<\/p>\n<h3>Wall d\u00e9cor ideas<\/h3>\n<p>While painting is one way to spruce up your interior, there are lots of simple ways to transform your wall without lifting a paintbrush. Here\u2019s our favourites:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Introduce some new artwork \u2013 floral prints and photos are great for this time of year<\/li>\n<li>Shelving \u2013 adding some shelves means you can introduce some new accessories, perhaps new photos, candles or house plants<\/li>\n<li>Wall sculptures \u2013 it doesn\u2019t always have to be a picture \u2013 there\u2019s a myriad of art that can draw the eye. Think sculptures, wall hangings \u2013 the more creative the better!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Spring is truly a wonderful time of year and bringing it into your home can help you enjoy the benefits of the season both indoors and out. It doesn\u2019t need to be large, expensive changes \u2013 start small and build up.
