There are lots of ways one can bring spring inside the home. From adding flowers and plants (for a fresh look) to changing the furniture arrangement, the idea is to create a lighter atmosphere for the season. I like bringing spring into the living room before the rest of our house. This time I added indigo blue accessories to complement my neutral palette along other pieces that will enhance my decor style.
Plants and flowers
There’s no better feeling than creating a fresh atmosphere at home. Plants and flowers can always provide this. I normally bring some of our smaller plants inside during this season to enhance the look of the decor. Choosing the perfect planter is always a must when bringing these beauties inside. The one that I’m using in the fireplace was a great find from HomeGoods.
Sometimes I love to mix them up with faux plants and flowers (I’m loving this fern from HomeGoods) to add lush in my surroundings.
Adding a touch of blue
After moving the furniture around, my next move to bringing spring into the living room would be to add color. I usually fall for the neutrals, but having a tone to play around enhances the decoration. This year I’m all about indigo blue, although it can visually feel strong, it brings in a fresh feeling. I added this color throughout the living room by changing the curtains and adding some decorative pillows.
The pillows are my favorite! I found these at HomeGoods and I’m loving the denim fabric and geometric pattern. They mix so well with the “cane inspired pattern” ones I bought a couple of months ago.
These shelves also had a spring refresh. By adding some tones of blue with accessories, this little nook came to life!
Bringing spring into the living room… and dining area
I couldn’t resist myself and decided to pull in a bit of spring from the living room into the dining area. In this area I also changed the curtains and added some magnolia faux branches to continue with that fresh look.
I’m sure many of you are excited for this new season. And to keep that excitement flowing, don’t forget to visit my friends for more amazing spring decor ideas:

March 29, 2018 at 9:25 amI love how you incorporate faux plants with the real ones! You can’t even tell which are faux. I really need to try that.
Gloribell Lebron

Anne Hogan
March 29, 2018 at 8:54 pmI have to confess, I bring in Spring with fake plants. I have a TERRIBLE black thumb and I feel so guilty every time I kill a plant, so I’ve given up and buy nice fakes. 🙂
Gloribell Lebron
March 29, 2018 at 9:07 pmI get you! That is why I mix them, so I’ll have a quick replacement just in case 😉

March 29, 2018 at 10:33 pmBeautiful home! Everything is lovely! 😊
I like to bring in spring by changing out various art work (spring botanicals, old phots of my kids Easter egg hunting, etc) and definitely do a combo of both real and faux flowers & greenery as well! They’re calling for more snow flurries here next week…this decor is vital to help convince me spring is really here! 😆 Thanks for the inspiration & opportunity!
Gloribell Lebron
March 30, 2018 at 10:28 amWhat a great tip; changing art and photos! Love this!! I hope you get warmer temperatures soon.

March 30, 2018 at 8:50 amOn the warmer days (60 or higher) I open one window in each room for freshness. I also purchase faux flowers from Home Goods. Each room has an arrangement. But in spring, I do get a container of purple hyacinth and put it on my window seat shelf. Love, love, love your blog.
Gloribell Lebron
March 30, 2018 at 10:20 amI would love to open windows like that, but mosquitos here in Miami are not a good experience. When we get cooler temps (72 or lower) I venture to open the patio door and it feels so good. Thanks for stopping by and for sharing your tips!
Cassandra Egan
March 30, 2018 at 9:34 amI’m over here from French Country Cottage. What a lovely tour. I honestly love to go to Home Goods every change of season/holiday to be inspired. I do also love ferns, and those baskets in the top photo. I bring more garden elements in for spring, and yes, some fake greenery. Thanks for sharing!
Gloribell Lebron
March 30, 2018 at 10:18 amSo happy to have you visit my blog from Courtney’s. Plants truly make the whole room feel fresher and ever more relaxing. Thanks for stopping by!

Ashley
April 2, 2018 at 8:37 amIt’s crazy how closely you captured ME and everything I consider perfect interior design! All the different elements in your play on aestetics & mixture… no kidding I AM IN LOVE With THIS ENTIRE LIVING ROOM!! The beauty! Seriously your design of bringing modern lines of my favorite styles with the mid century modern and classic woods, and added the extra pop of mixed metals and glass chic and oh let’s not underplay the round coffee table!! The color pallet is honestly what I consider absolute perfection… clean, airy, crisp, cool blues, but added extra perfection with the Rich balanced warmth so it’s not too breezy/beach with that navy blue! I often draw inspiration from others designs, but this one made me want to imitate exactly; you are very talented!
Gloribell Lebron

Tim
April 3, 2018 at 11:58 amIt is tough to have flowers where we live in Texas. In the summer it is too hot, and in the spring it is too windy. My wife remedies this by having the plants inside, where they also wither and die!! I am pretty sure it is her, but I don’t have the heart to tell her. For the few weeks the plants are alive though, the house smells great.
Gloribell Lebron
April 3, 2018 at 1:48 pmOh noo! It is so hard sometimes to maintain plants alive. Here is either hot, or too hot! So if it were for me, I would only have faux and dessert plants! Thanks for stopping by!

Danielle Falzone
April 6, 2018 at 5:58 amI enjoy reading your blog and following your Instagram feed! In the spring I put away my darker throws, add fresh flowers when I can (Aldi’s has very affordable ones), and try to use the lighter decor items I already own. I don’t have a decor budget/funds so I like you use spring printable art in frames I already own. My mantel is always my centerpiece and I like to change it foyer each season and holiday.
Thank you for all your inspiration! Blessings to you,
Danielle
