Pretty Pastels

For those who want a hint of color without it being too in your face, pastels are a perfect solution. A pale colored glass or linens blend easily into any table while still providing a boost of joy. Or, cheer up a shelf or coffee table with a pastel accent.

Speckles & Swirls

There’s something about home accessories and tableware decorated with swirls or speckles that triggers a serotonin boost. The artistic accents have a lighthearted feel and flow with life, which is fitting for the spring awakening. The happy colors help too. Pick whichever sparks joy for you.

If you are a color lover and are looking for a more dramatic spring transformation, choose from these home accents in saturated hues. For a most restrained version, you could add a single pop of color to an otherwise muted backdrop or mix together a couple for a bolder statement.

Would it even be spring without a floral accent or two? Flower-decorated decor may not be groundbreaking, but it is reliably pretty. Thanks to bright colors and modern interpretations of classic patterns, these home accents are far from looking stodgy. Bonus, thanks to their multi colors, these decorative accents will seamlessly pair with lots of decor you already have.
