Decorating for spring should be fun. After a long winter, it’s rewarding to celebrate the season’s arrival with fresh, light touches that make a home feel alive again. I love bringing in classic spring elements—birds, tulips, budding branches—and adding a bit of whimsy. My brass bunny candleholder captures that feeling perfectly and always makes me smile.
I recently found an adorable brass bunny candleholder and immediately knew it belonged in my home. I enjoy incorporating unexpected, whimsical pieces like this—not just for spring but throughout the year—while keeping the overall look subtle and tasteful. A single playful accent can make a space feel more relaxed, joyful, and approachable without overwhelming the décor.
While autumn has always felt like my favorite season at home, spring and summer in the Pacific Northwest are equally beautiful. After months of cozy layers and holiday décor, spring’s soft colors and fresh textures are especially welcome. The small, seasonal changes I make—swapping pillows, adding fresh or realistic faux florals, and incorporating a few playful accessories—help our home reflect the life and rhythms of our family.
