|Bring Spring into your Kitchen with these Interior Styling Tips
Ah spring! A fresh start with a new season and one that comes full of brightness, sunshine, colour, and hope. Spring is a beautiful season – let’s welcome it and celebrate its arrival by bringing spring into our homes. It’s the perfect time to refresh your home with a spring clean and some fresh details. The kitchen is the heart of the home so, in this article, let’s look at how to bring spring into the kitchen.
- Clean, Organise, and Declutter
The first step of any home refresh project is to remove excess and give the space a good clean. Declutter anything that you don’t use, need, or love and give your kitchen a good spring clean as you do so. Empty cabinets and drawers, wipe everything down, and only return the things that you need or love. Take this time to organise things nicely too, to keep your kitchen cabinets and drawers tidy, which is much easier with fewer things.
Other jobs that are part of a kitchen spring clean include cleaning the tops of the cupboards, wiping all the doors down, cleaning the fridge, defrosting the freezer, deep cleaning the oven, cleaning the dishwasher, mopping the floor, washing the windows, to mention just a few. It can be a big job, so get the whole family involved and give yourself plenty of time. Once the cleaning is done, it will be time for the fun stuff!
- Treat Yourself to Some Fresh Flowers
There’s nothing that says spring more than a vase full of colourful fresh flowers. Add a touch of greenery with freshly cut flowers, or potted plants if you prefer. Display a vase proudly on your kitchen table with some nice daffodils or tulips perhaps. You can also display potted herbs on your kitchen windowsill which look beautiful and will be a great addition to your cooking too.
- Add Pops of Bright and Pastel Colours
You don’t have to paint your walls a new colour to change the colour scheme of your kitchen. You can achieve a similar effect by changing the colour of the details in the room. In a kitchen, there are lots of opportunities to do this with both practical and decorative items. Bright colours and pastel colours are perfect for spring. They brighten up a space instantly! Achieve this effect by adding these colours to things like kitchen towels, cloths, napkins, placemats, tablecloths, vases, fruit bowls, and more. Try to stick to a few selected colours to tie the room together with a cohesive look.
- Big Impact Small Kitchen Updates
If you feel like your kitchen needs updating a bit more but you don’t want to change the full kitchen, you can update smaller details such as kitchen hardware. A new kitchen tap or new handles for your cabinets and drawers can change the whole look of your kitchen but isn’t too time-consuming or expensive.
You can also update the room, by changing details such as the art on your walls or the curtains or blinds to refresh the room.
Let’s welcome spring back with fresh flowers, cheerful colours, and a decluttered and clean space. A little spring refresh and makeover is a great way to bring spring into your kitchen so that you can enjoy your home to the fullest.
