Behold the beauty of spring! The gray of winter gives way to the bright colors of flowers blooming and the hills remembering green. To inspire you to bring that springtime color and joy into your home, here we give you our 10 favorite spring decor ideas to brighten your spaces indoors and out.
Whether you are looking to freshen up your living room or your wall décor in any room, we have plenty of inspiration for you for 2026 from outdoor hanging plants to garland to hang on your mantel (DIY fabric carrot garland, anyone?). You might want to incorporate some vintage decorations specifically for your Easter celebrations right down to your tablescape (how cute are these rickrack napkins?), but any general spring décor you add will look good not only that weekend but all spring long and even into summer.
Make a Cheery Entry
Welcome the season and put your best front-door foot forward with a cheery arrangement of spring flowers as a door hanger. If you’re up for more of a makeover, you can even paint your front door a similarly happy hue.

Brighten Up Your Bedding
For a low-lift seasonal refresh, swap your cozy winter bedding for a colorful spring set. For one of our favorite looks, start with a plain white matelassé coverlet as your base, then fold a colorful quilt or duvet at the end of the bed. Opt for shams or decorative pillows in the same color family and add in an unexpected shade, like the purple throw pillow here, for a designer touch.

Refresh Your Hanging Planters
Warmer weather also signals the return of hanging plants for the front porch. If it’s not yet time for baskets brimming with colorful flowers, opt for lush greenery like ferns instead.

Hang a Spring Garland
Festive garland isn’t just for the winter holidays; it works for Easter, too! Set aside time for a craft-ernoon with the kids to create a blue-speckled egg garland.
To make: Use an awl to poke holes in the ends of papier-mâché eggs, then paint the eggs white, robin’s-egg blue, and turquoise with acrylic paint. Once dry, spatter with dark blue paint. Thread twine through holes and hang, adding a tassel detail, if desired.

Lighten Up Your Bath Linens
Give your powder bath a quick facelift with new towels in a fresh, neutral palette. Opt for linens with a subtle pattern—think country checks or ticking stripes—that can easily be thrown in the washing machine after guests leave. Finish off your room with a vase of fresh greenery or flowers for an extra pop of color.
