Spring Home Decor Trends for This Year
1. Pastel and Nature-Inspired Palettes
Soft shades like sage green, dusty rose, sky blue, and buttery yellow dominate the spring color wheel. These tones evoke nature’s gentle rebirth and make your space feel calm yet vibrant.
Home styling tip: Use accent cushions, vases, and rugs in these hues to subtly introduce the palette.
2. Textural Contrasts
Think organic textures like boucle, rattan, handwoven cotton, and unfinished woods. Mixing these materials adds depth and comfort.

Eco-conscious living continues to influence decor choices. Handcrafted, sustainable decor that tells a story is more relevant than ever.
