Spring is a time for renewal, bringing beautiful weather and bright colors after a long, cold winter. If your apartment has started to feel stale, a little redecorating can bring the warmth of spring indoors and make you fall in love with your home all over again. Below are a few easy tips for sprucing up your apartment for the new season.

How to Bring Spring Inside

1. Paint the Walls

Nothing freshens up a space like a fresh coat of paint, especially if you’ve been looking at white walls all winter. If your property manager says it’s okay, consider painting the walls and trim with festive spring colors like yellow or green. You can always repaint later if you don’t like the color, so don’t be afraid to be bold.

2. Pick Up Some Houseplants

Scatterinapartmentg a few houseplants around your apartment will make your space warmer, more inviting, and comfortable. Windowsills are perfect places for small flowering plants that need a lot of sunlight, like aloe and other succulents, while putting taller plants in a corner will soften the space. A philodendron is easy to maintain as a hanging plant. 

3. Take Care of Spring Cleaning

While it might not be as much fun as decorating or gardening, spring cleaning will make your apartment a healthier, more comfortable place to live. Go through all your belongings and get rid of anything you don’t want, clean behind the fridge and stove, and scrub all the nooks and crannies that usually get overlooked.

4. Buy Floral Scent Diffusers

Nothing evokes springtime quite like the scent of flowers. Burning candles is always a fire risk, but floral scent diffusers are a safe alternative, filling your apartment with the smell of your favorite blossoms without the risk of an open flame.
