With spring right around the corner it is finally time to renew your bedroom with spring colors, decor and natural accents. Spring is the best time to give your winter bedroom a ‘makeover’ and prepare for warmer days ahead. Its time to tuck away the down comforters and heavy wool blankets and replace them with lighter weight cotton fabrics and add colorful linens with floral and nature accents. If you are trying to bring life to your cold bedroom, here are tips to infuse spring into your bedroom without spending a fortune to do so!

Bring spring colors into your bedroom:

Warmer weather, fresh blooms, and natural influences are perfect touches to bring into your bed linen, accent walls, lamps, and textiles throughout your bedroom. Spring greens, lemon yellow, ocean blues, and mandarin orange are just a few of the spring colors that will brighten your spring bedroom. Duvet covers are a perfect way to add a new look to your bed without spending a fortune on a whole new linen set. Lighter Aus-Furniture is the perfect accompaniment to spring colored linens. Bedroom furniture in white, lighter color wood varieties and painted with complimenting colors are sure to brighten your bedroom.

Freshen up under your sheets too!

Freshen up under your sheets

While most of us just look to the decorative nature of our beds, we forget about what is under our sheets, and spring is the perfect time to rethink if it’s time to get new Sealy Mattresses or box springs. If your bed is over 6-10 years old, it is probably time to replace. Also check that mattress covers, bed skirts, foam therapeutic bed covers, and other “under bed linen” are fresh and ready to go into a new season. In the winter it is easy to forget about these important items. Although your bed should look great, it’s important for it to feel fresh, clean, and comfortable throughout the spring and summer months ahead.

If you are trying to find creative ways to revamp your cold winter bedroom into a refreshing spring one, these ideas will surely help. With colorful bed linens, fresh blooms beside your bed table, and fresh foundation elements to your bed, you will be excited to retreat to your spring bedroom this season.
