How to Refresh Your Home for Spring (Without Buying a Thing) Originally posted July 26, 2025 Whether you're listing or lingering, there’s no better time to give your home a style reset. The best part? You don’t need a budget to transform your space. Some of the best styling tricks involve reworking what’s already in your home. With some creativity, smart swaps can breathe new energy into a room. ### 1. Rearrange What You've Got Spring is all about airflow and clarity—so let your furniture reflect that. Create a new reading nook. Simple shifts in layout can freshen your mood. ### 2. Switch Up the Palette Color sets the mood. Swap heavy fabrics for breezy linens. Pale shades reflect more light and make spaces feel open. ### 3. Style With Nature Greenery = free décor.
