You don't need to repaint the walls or buy new throw pillows to decorate for spring. Adding just one new element can invigorate a room without blowing your decor budget. Here, a textured white vase of bright yellow blooms brings new life to this setup of coffee table books and beach-inspired decor. A sparkling disco ball catches natural light pouring through the windows and bounces it around the room as a reminder that gloomy winter days are over.

Pop of Color

Jay Wilde

Floral wallpaper adds a splash of color to this otherwise neutral bathroom. Since the space is small, using wallpaper on only the top third of the wall keeps the space bright and draws the eye upward to visually expand the room. The greens and pinks in the wallpaper are muted enough to match any decorating style, but when paired with a vase of fresh pink flowers, it gives a distinctly springy feel to the bathroom.

Decorative hooks hold everything necessary for running out the door during spring showers, and a simple metallic shelf is just the right size for a small vase of freshly-picked blooms. If you're feeling bold, consider painting your front door for the season; this peachy shade is perfect for warmer months.
