The last whisper of winter chills fades as the sun climbs higher, beckoning us to throw open our windows and let the fresh, invigorating spring air fill our homes. It's time to shed the cosy layers of winter and awaken our living spaces from their slumber.
There’s something so refreshing about opening the windows and letting that crisp, new air in. It’s like the whole house breathes a sigh of relief. Here at The Dormy House, we adore helping everyone get their homes ready for this beautiful season. Grab a cosy spot to plan, and let’s talk about how we can make your space sing with spring.
The Living Room: A Symphony of Spring Light
Transitioning your living room into spring is all about creating a light, bright and inviting area, a space where laughter flows as freely as the fresh air, ready for those sunny afternoon chats and cosy evenings. Spring is also a great time to declutter and organise your living room bookcases and media cabinets, removing any items that no longer serve a purpose.
- Embrace Soft Textures: Let’s ditch those heavy winter throws on your Ripley Sofa, for light linen cushions in pastel shades or our lovely bolsters. They add such a touch of sophistication and comfort, and you can choose from so many lovely spring hues. Our Dormy House Square Cushions, available in a range of delicate hues, can instantly transform your sofa into a haven of springtime softness. Consider pairing them with a lightweight linen throw, which is great for those slightly cooler evenings; trust us, you’ll be thankful later.
- Floral Flourishes: Think fresh flowers for your coffee table and a few spring-themed books or magazines. Get ready for spring and arrange a stunning bouquet in an elegant glass vase, adding a touch of natural beauty to your space.
- Let the Light In: Switch darker, insulating curtains for lighter, sheer or semi-sheer curtains that allow more natural light to filter through. Our selection of linen curtains will create an ethereal, sun-drenched atmosphere.
- Styling Your Shelves: Add some spring touches to your bookshelves. Our Large Evesham Bookcase is just divine and is the perfect spot to display your favourite spring reads. Think of adding small potted plants, vases with delicate blooms, or decorative objects in spring colours. We always like to add a few of our Rattan storage baskets to help keep things tidy too and add charm to your space.
Bedroom: A Tranquil Spring Oasis
Turning your bedroom into a tranquil spring oasis begins with a focus on lightness and breathability. Swap out the heavy winter bedding for crisp, cool linens in soft pastels or fresh white, layering with a lightweight cotton or linen bed throw. Also, take this opportunity to organise your wardrobe and those bedside tables - they can get so cluttered, can’t they? A little decluttering goes a long and transitioning to lighter spring clothes and adding refreshing scents can make all the difference.
- Luxurious Linens: Pack away your heavy winter clothes and bring out your spring and summer wardrobe, with the Evesham three-drawer wardrobe you have a pretty yet practical storage solution. Dress your bed with fresh cotton bed linens for their breathability and softness. Choose from our range of bedding in a serene palette of pastel shades or crisp whites.
- Declutter and Organise: Bedside tables can easily become cluttered. Use this opportunity to declutter drawers and the tabletop. Our stylish Bruton bedside table with drawers has the perfect amount of storage to help you keep your essentials neatly organised.
- Soft Layers: Store winter blankets or heavier bedding in your Somersby deep buttoned ottoman until next season. Get ready for spring by replacing darker winter throws with lighter, softer ones made of cotton, linen, or a light knit to add a touch of texture and comfort without overwhelming the space.
Bathroom: A Spa-Like Spring Refresh
While the living room and bedroom often steal the spotlight during a spring refresh, the bathroom, a space we use daily, frequently gets overlooked. Yet, it's precisely this daily use that makes it so deserving of a little springtime attention. Spring clean and refresh your bathroom cupboard, then fold those freshly washed linens away.
- Organised Elegance: Let's talk about decluttering. Honestly, how many half-used bottles and old samples do we really need? We love a little bit of open shelving with our Rochester shelves, it's a fantastic way to display your prettiest towels and those lovely scented soaps. But, of course, we need to keep things tidy. That’s where our Rochester mirrored cabinet and Ripley cabinet come in. They’re perfect for keeping everything organised and looking lovely.
- Freshness and Functionality: Don’t forget the laundry cupboard. It might not be the first thing that comes to mind when we think about spring cleaning, but honestly, a well-organised laundry space is such a treat. Our Evesham laundry cupboard is not only practical but also adds a touch of style to your space. Or for those smaller items, like hand towels and delicates, our Somersby laundry cupboard is just perfect.
- Refreshing Scents: Add a touch of springtime freshness with natural soap bars and bath oils, infused with invigorating scents like eucalyptus or lavender. Place a small potted plant or a vase with fresh flowers on your bathroom counter to bring a touch of nature indoors.
