When I put the clean dishes away after brunch last weekend, I hung several of our new blue coffee cups on the mug rack. Seeing that cheerful mix of mugs made me unexpectedly happy—it felt like a little burst of spring in the kitchen.
Small, everyday touches like this are exactly what spring decorating is about: finding delight in the home through simple, intentional choices.
These small delights—mixing organic textures, placing a green plant in a sunny spot, refreshing a color palette you love, and clearing away the heavier winter layers—combine to create a lighter, more uplifting atmosphere. A little spring cleaning and a few thoughtful changes can make a room feel renewed and ready for brighter days.
How are you bringing spring into your home?
PS. I appreciate all the kind comments about our dining room and dishes. After a particularly busy season, simple moments—like setting a pretty table and taking the time to sit and enjoy it—feel especially restorative.
