Spring is a fantastic time to give your home some love, but a spring refresh doesn’t have to break the bank. Rather, it’s all about making small but impactful changes. A general guideline is to think light and bright in terms of fun colors and lighter textures. Here are a few ideas all under a hundred dollars to make your space shine.
1. Swap or add brightly colored or fresh pastel throw pillows to quickly transform a room.
Throw pillows are a no brainer and a super easy way to infuse new life into a room. Try layering pops of color and different textures to create a naturally styled look.

2. Opt for a fun throw that’s lighter in texture and feel.
Getting cosy in the springtime doesn’t mean giving up the comfort of a throw blanket. With just enough weight to keep you warm and cool at the same time, a summer throw can also refresh a sofa or bedroom.

3. For the more adventurous, choose one wall, perhaps the sofa or bed wall, and paint it a refreshing yet complementary color to the rest of the room.
Painting a wall is definitely more of a commitment, but its a sure-fire way to transform a room. Choose a color that makes you smile and it will be a winner for months to come. When winter rolls around, just add wool textures to the room and you’re all set.

6. For the bedroom, buy a set of patterned or different colored pillowcases that coordinate with your bedding.
You don’t have to replace your entire bedding collection to update your bedroom. Using pillowcases with a different accent color or patterned border will give your bed a new look, especially when you coordinate with a lighter summer throw.

8. Fresh scented candles around the house like cut grass or floral bouquets instantly make a room smell like Spring.
