Freshen Up Your Home This Spring—No Spending Required

How to Refresh Your Home for Spring (Without Buying a Thing) Originally posted July 26, 2025 Even if you're not planning to sell, there’s no better time to give your home a seasonal refresh. The best part? You can skip the spending to transform your space. Some of the best styling tricks involve reworking what’s already in your home. With some creativity, smart swaps can redefine a space. ### 1. Rearrange What You've Got Spring is all about light and flow—so let your furniture reflect that. Create a new reading nook. Simple shifts in layout can open up new views. ### 2. Change the Mood with Texture Color sets the mood. Add light textures like cotton or voile. Airy colours reflect more light and make spaces feel open. ### 3. Use What’s Growing Outside Greenery = free décor. Grab some cuttings from your yard, stick them in a vase, and boom—your space looks curated. Want to level it up? Move your potted friend to a new spot—kitchen shelf. ### 4. Shop Your Own Home Could be a minibar. Could shine in the lounge. Switch mirrors to new angles. It’ll feel like a redesign. --- **Q: How do I kick off the refresh?** **A:** Clear out the junk first.
