How To Get Your Home Ready For Spring 2023
The time of the year that so many people look forward to is finally here! The sun appears in the sky, the weather gets warmer, and the days get longer. People often get the urge to change everything about their space during the spring, to make their space reflect the bright, beautiful world outside. There are many ways in which you can change your home to be ready for spring 2023 – just doing a few of these things can help you celebrate the springtime at home.
Let In Light and Air
Winter can often be dark and cold, however, spring often brings longer days and warmer weather. Breathing in the fresh air and basking in the sunlight is one of the best ways to celebrate the arrival of spring. Switch out dark, heavy curtains for light, voile curtains. This way, you can immerse yourself in natural light. Cleaning the windows and leaving them open during the day is a perfect way to let clean air into your home. This will prepare you for spring and allow you to enjoy the season.
Install A Clothesline
One of the best parts of spring is the feeling of air-dried clothes. Now that the weather has become warmer and your clothes won’t freeze, you should consider installing a clothesline. Nothing can beat the smell of fresh linen bed sheets or cotton clothes, and it’s a great way to make your home feel more fresh. It can also help you save on energy bills, which can be very useful during the cost of living crisis. This is one of the best things you can add to your home in order to help you embrace the spring season.
Do Some Spring Cleaning
Spring cleaning is essential when it comes to preparing your home for spring. Spring often represents renewal and new beginnings, and you can transform the interiors of your home. Spring cleaning can allow you to lose the items that are no longer bringing you joy, and can allow you to do a deep clean of your home. Start by focusing on each individual room and getting rid of things that you no longer need or love – this way you can reinvent your space to suit your taste. Check everything – clean out your wardrobe, your cupboards, your shed or garage. Make sure that you do a deep clean of all the floors, corners and under furniture. This will allow your home to feel incredibly fresh.
Spring cleaning can be made a lot easier by designing an easy to clean home. To learn more, please see the accompanying resource.

Add A Floral Touch
Springtime is when the flowers start to bloom, and flowers have become one of the biggest symbols of spring. There are many ways in which you can add a floral touch to your home – for example, floral print cushion sets or quilts can make your home feel much more bright and fresh. You could also get some faux flower wreaths to hang by your door and on your walls, making the space look incredibly beautiful. Planting flowers in your garden can also make your outside areas an inviting place to relax in.
Bring The Outside In
Spring represents growth and the outdoors. What better way to celebrate the arrival of spring than with fresh plants? However, if you don’t have a big garden, there are multiple ways in which you can bring the outside in. If you have an apartment balcony, you could grow small plants and fruit (sunflowers or strawberries) on it. You could also get low maintenance plants (such as cacti or succulents) for your windowsills. This means you can celebrate the spring with plantlife, even if you don’t have a big garden.
Improve Your Garden
If you’re lucky enough to have a garden, there are definitely ways in which you can optimise its use for springtime. You could start a vegetable garden at the bottom of your garden, which could make a really interesting conversation piece. You could also cook food with the produce you grow, which could save you a lot of money and make you feel much more connected to the Earth. It is also a good idea to mow the lawn and water your plants, so that they can be healthy throughout the warmer months. Putting garden furniture out there is also great for entertaining guests during the springtime – getting a garden table with a matching parasol and chairs will look amazing in your garden.
Update Your Bedding
You may also need to change your bedding when spring arrives. You should get rid of heavy winter bedding and instead switch it for lighter tog duvets, so you can keep cool whilst asleep as we move towards summer. Adding white or pastel coloured bedding to your home can also intensify the feeling of spring in your home.
You could also add some light coloured luxury cushion covers to your soft furnishings in order to make the rooms appear brighter. It will feel like spring both inside and outside. Spring is the most beautiful time of the year – prepare your home to celebrate it today!
