Fresh Spring Décor Trends spring bouquet imageWith winter nearly over, it’s time to ditch that cabin fever. Refreshing your home is a great way to start shedding the proverbial cobwebs and start anew. Not just decluttering—although that's a great start—but changing things up a bit in the décor.

Here are some trending ideas to spice up your home for spring!

1. Copper

This shabby chic tone is in this year, both as a décor colour and as a metal. Seek out copper or copper-coloured artwork frames, serving trays, or find fabrics that contain copper in them such as throw pillows or rugs.

If you're going a little bit further and replacing light fixtures, look for unique lighting with a thin, brushed copper structure. This hue goes with just about everything, making it a versatile choice in your home décor selections.

Patterns have always been very trendy, and this year is no exception. Geometric patterns are very much in style, from muted stripes and polka dots to more complex designs from ancient cultures. The latest trend is mixing patterns, which can be a very delicate balance to get right.

3. Wood Tile

I’m sure you’ve seen this latest trend on HGTV. It looks like reclaimed wood, but it’s actually tile. This highly detailed and realistic texture is perfect for your floors or walls. Wrap a fireplace wall in this unique tile, or create a feature wall. Actual reclaimed wood can be quite expensive; this special tile is a more economical solution, and still looks stylish.

4. Nubby Wool Throw

This one might not sound very “springy” but it's certainly all the rage right now. If you haven’t yet seen an arm-knitted blanket, Google it. This chunky style blanket is oh-so cozy and can come in any colour imaginable. Find one in a bright, vibrant colour and toss it over a chair. Both inspiring and functional for those still-chilly spring evenings.

 5. Artisan-Crafted Furniture & Décor

Natural textures and tones are still a big part of 2017’s décor trends, but what's coming back is the demand for well-built, unique furniture pieces. Whether it’s custom-made furniture or simply refreshing old antique pieces, artisan furniture and décor make beautiful design statements and bring a refreshed look to your home.

All shades of green are in this year, which is a perfect way to introduce spring back into your home. Reupholster a signature piece of furniture in your favourite shade of green to become the focal point of the room. If you prefer more subtle applications, add green in the form of artwork, tabletop décor, rugs, or accent pillows.

7. Marble

Who would have thought marble would make such a tremendous comeback, but it has. Not just in countertops either. We’ve seen marble wallpaper, marble-textured vases, and even rugs and fabrics. If you’re a fan of naturally-inspired textures, this might be one to try this spring.

8. Butterflies

The butterfly decor trend is real. Everything from butterfly-patterned throw pillows to vases and wallpaper, this gentle spring beauty is showing up in all sorts of places.

9. Soft & Fuzzy

Texture is a major trend in home décor for 2017, and it might be time to add a little fluff to your space. Consider finding throws and pillows made of a fuzzy or fibre-based material. Even velvet is making a comeback. These soft, comfortable textures keep you cozy throughout the transition from winter to spring, but also add a splash of freshness to your space.

Generally speaking, home décor this spring is trending along the path of creativity, trying new things, and kicking old fashion to the curb. Don’t be afraid to experiment; you might surprise yourself!
