When we’re hitting 80s in March, I feel #blessed to live in Florida. I can start visiting my favorite plant nursery again, brighter colors are everywhere, and I can make Italian sodas without judgment… warm weather is the best. Plus, the season change is the perfect excuse to redecorate 😉
With the new Anthropologie and Target spring lines, I’m itching to transition our bedroom from winter to spring. The folks at Havenly got me brainstorming and I wanted to share some tips for an easy bedroom refresh.
There’s no such thing as too many throw pillows! Pillows can add texture and pattern to your bed as well as making it super comfy, so pile them on! I like to swap out our fluffy, fuzzy, and velvet throws with tufted and fringed options and our DIY linen lumbar pillow.
Nothing gets you into a new season mindset like aromatherapy. To stimulate your senses, try lighting a candle and playing a special relaxing playlist. Havenly has the perfect cozy playlist here! For candles, find a scent between woodsy and sweet to strike that transition season balance. My absolute favorite all year-round candle is Moonlight Island from Target. An Apartment Therapy article dubbed it a dupe for Anthropologie’s Capri Blue Volcano, and now I’m tempted to keep one in every room.
As the weather starts to warm up, switch out your satin, silk, or flannel winter sheets with lightweight, breathable cotton ones to keep your bed cool and comfy. For the nights that still like to remind you that winter isn’t technically over, keep a thicker throw blanket on top. Or flip it! Keep you flannel sheets but switch out your thick duvet to a lightweight quilt. Mixing linen textures is a great way to customize your bed and easy to pull together if they’re in a complementary color palette.
The Havenly peeps are huge fans of crisp white sheets and bedding. Falling into a fluffy white bed at the end of the day will make you feel like you’re staying at a hotel every night. Plus the clean white look works with every style decor and you can just change the throws with the season!
Warmer weather = planting weather. Bring in some fresh greens with air cleaning plants to help you sleep better at night. Go bold with a large rubber tree or subtle with some nightstand lavender for easy breathing.
Above the bed is prime real estate for decorating. A gallery wall in lighter colors contrasted in white in black frames keep the spring, light-and-airy feel even if your linens are darker, winter colors.
Don’t overlook your floors! Warm up bare floors with a wool or polypropylene rug. Havenly points out that wool is known for being warm and durable, but polypropylene is a great option if you’re looking for something more affordable and softer. A lot of home stores have rug sales between winter & spring, so it’s the perfect time to look for an all season piece! (Psst, World Market is having up to 50% off rugs right now! Check out this flat woven, geometric beauty or this blush, Moroccan shag!)
