Hey Y’all! Welcome to my Spring Home Tour 2020! This post is actually part of a big blog hop with 5 other bloggers who are sharing their tours too! I am sharing tips all about how to decorate your home for spring so hopefully you will find some inspiration from it if you haven’t started decorating yet!
If you are coming over from my friend Janice’s home of Our Perfecting Manor, welcome! I just love Janice’s home!
Note: At the bottom of this post, I will be directing you on to the next stop on our spring home tour – there’s a total of 7 other bloggers and I hope you will visit them to get a ton of spring inspiration this year!
How many of you have started your spring decorating this year? Or better yet, do you even bother to decorate for spring? A lot of times people will tell me that they don’t really change things up because it is too much work.
Well, I am here to give you a few tips and pointers on how to decorate your home for spring easily. I just like to add in a few touches here and there to give my home a more spring like feel!
Use Florals And Greenery
I think my biggest tip for spring decorating is to use floral and greenery throughout your home. And it is a quick and cheap way to add in some spring touches.
Faux florals will last you from year to year so it really isn’t a huge investment to get some and display them. Plus, I think it really brightens everything up and makes your home feel happy and bright for spring.
Use Colors
I keep a majority of my home neutral so when a holiday comes around, it is easy for me to add in a few pops of colors here and there.
Places I love to add colors into are especially my coffee bar and my tiered trays. I usually do the most color here because it is confined to a small area of my home and adds just enough color without being too overwhelming.
I love to use pastel colors for spring decorating as you can see below on my coffee bar.
Use Candles
Not only do you need to add a few decorative touches in your home to make it look more like spring, but you also need a few candles to make it smell just like spring too! I love fresh and light scents during this time of the year.
And y’all know I am obsessed with my Modern Forestry candles, so my current favorite spring ones are Lavender and Glazed Lemon Cake- so perfect for spring! Not only do candles smell great, but they look pretty in home decor too!
Use Pillows
How easy is it to add in a little decorative pillow for a spring touch?? I love to use pillows for seasonal decor because they are so easy to add in and you can find them relatively cheap too.
And again, this is something that will last you year after year so it is definitely worth it to get a few Easter or Spring like pillows for your home.
Use Garlands
I always like to have a seasonal garland displayed on my hutch for each different holiday. So this ticking stripe bunny garland is the perfect little touch to make my hutch more spring appropriate.
Plus, it’s super easy just to add in a little banner and keep everything else the same!
Well, I hope these little tips and tricks will help you get inspired and motivated to do a little spring decorating in your home this year too. I would love to see what y’all come up with! Have a lovely day my friends and thanks for stopping by!
Now go over and check out my friend Lynn’s home over at At Home In The Wildwood and see just how she styled it all for spring as well!

I love these tips! I’ve considered getting a coffee bar for our home even, but can’t figure out a place that I would place it if we did since I don’t want to overcrowd our space. I LOVE what you did with it, though!
Charity Gentry says
Thank you so much! I specifically planned for this space when building our home. I even had our contractor move the window over a little so I would have enough space to have one!

Amanda Polson says
I just went to Home Depot yesterday and spent some time walking around the flowers. It got me SO ready for spring! And I just love the ideas you’ve got here. Can’t wait!!
Charity Gentry says
Ah I am so ready for some real flowers too! I love to put plants all over my porch. Hopefully I can do that soon!

Charity Gentry says
It really is. I was super obsessed with it last year, but I haven’t gotten anything new at all this year. I just ran out of room for it lol
Ellie says
I love having so many flowers about in the spring, makes it feel like im ready for summer!
Charity Gentry says
Yes me too! So ready for some real flowers too to put on my porch as well!
Sarah Mark says
These ideas are perfect! I love candles they make the room smell so nice and inviting, also your little bunny in your entryway nook is soo cute, if I could I would have lots more cushions and pillows in my house but my partner moves them onto the floor when he’s sitting down so I spend most of my time picking them back up again. I have never considered using a garland before but it is so cute!
stephanie says
OH MY GOSH! your house is so cozy and cheerful! the only spring decorating I have done is un-decorating from winter, haha! but this makes me want to decorate with lots of flowers and springy things! 🙂
Charity Gentry says
Awe thank you Stephanie. I appreciate it! And yes, you should start spring decorating. Especially since we are all stuck at home with a lot of time on our hands!
Sophie says
Can I move in??? Your home literally looks like a Pinterest dream board, everything is beautiful x
Sophie
Charity Gentry says
Awe Sophie, you are too sweet! I really appreciate that!
Christine says
Beautiful pictures and so perfect for spring!
Charity Gentry says
Thank you so much! I appreciate it, Christine!
Lisa says
It seems so strange to think we’ll be decorating our house for Easter soon. That bunny cushion is adorable! We’re very lucky to have a garden to forage greenery from for vases and a garland but I hadn’t thought about a table runner – great idea, thank you! PS, your house looks BEAUTIFUL <3 x
Charity Gentry says
Awe thank you so much Lisa. I appreciate it! I wish I had a garden for greenery. I am definitely craving real plants to put on my porch soon!
Ran | Travel & Lifestyle says
Oh my gosh, thanks for all the tips! You have a really amazing home! I love your photos too! What camera and editing software do you use, if I may ask? So wonderful!
Charity Gentry says
Thank you so much! I actually just take pictures on my iPhone 11 and then I just use a preset that I purchased from https://www.lizmarieblog.com and that’s it! I don’t do much editing at all, I just add the preset!
Jenny Ventura says

Yes you definitely should now that you have more time on your hands!
Sarah says
All these lovely photos are giving me real decor envy right now! It all looks so bright and cute 🙂

katelyn | embark to explore says
Honestly, the way you decorate your house is amazing! It’s such an inspiration for me! I wish I decorated seasonally like this, it just isn’t as pushed in the UK in homeware stores! I really wish it was! I think everything in this post is amazing and makes me wanna buy cute easter nick nacks!
Keep up the gorgeous posts!!!
Charity Gentry says
Awe thanks Katelyn. I really appreciate your sweet words. Yeah, here in the US decorating seasonally is very pushed (especially at stores like Hobby Lobby) so you can’t help but be a little inspired and want to decorate for each season too after seeing all the cute things!
Jess says
Your house is beautiful! I love that shelf. Candles are such a great way to get into the seasons – I love a fresh cotton scent in springtime

Charity Gentry says
Thank you! I love a fresh cotton scent too! So perfect for spring!
Gemma says
I love everything about this post! Thank-you for sharing lovely. Your whole house definitely screams Spring! When I move out I cannot wait to do this. I’m going to have all the decorations.
Gemma | http://www.anoceanglimmer.wordpress.com
Charity Gentry says
Awe thank you so much Gemma! Yes, it definitely is so much fun to decorate your own home. I never realized I had a passion for decorating until I moved out myself!
Jenn says
I love adding little things to spruce up the house for the holidays. You don’t have to go all out for every holiday. Just adding a few things like a little sign or little accents help it look and feel different for the holidays!
Charity Gentry says
Exactly! That is definitely what I try to do for each holiday and season!
Under Flowery Sky says
This is your house? The photos are so beautiful. Such a rustic feeling.
Greenery is always a good choice. Candles are lovely..
Charity Gentry says
Awe thank you so much! Yes, this is my house. Usually all the pictures you see on my blog are taken by me and styled in my home. I try to keep it that way as much as possible.
