Tabletop Terrarium

blue chair

Carve out a sunny nook to refresh and recharge with a mini tabletop greenscape. A tray table makes it easy to move plants near a window's natural light. Place plants that share light and watering needs but vary in texture and color for a fresh spring display in a glass terrarium.

Pretty Palette

dining

A gallon of paint is among the easiest tools for changing a space. Choose a springtime color, like this room's soft violet, that makes you feel happy; paint an accent wall or the whole room. For a more substantial yet still easy makeover, start with two new accents for the room, such as window treatments, chairs, a light fixture, or a rug. Match a paint color to your new duds, and with just three things, you can have a brand-new room.

Easy Accent

Bring a spare birdbath indoors to create living artwork. A shallow model can hold just enough soil to make a pretty display of moss, spring-flowering bulbs, and pussy willow branches. It's the perfect miniature garden to enjoy indoors before your outdoor landscape blooms.

Ombre Update

Spring Decor

Refresh a spare dresser, console, or nightstand with a fun ombre paint effect. Vary the brightness of a soft spring paint shade by mixing in different amounts of white paint. Apply the lightest shade to the top of your furniture piece, and gradually work down to the darkest shade.

Green with Envy

Allow your home decor to blossom with hints of garden-fresh greens. Start small by painting the bases of a pair of table lamps, or opt for a more dramatic display of green by reupholstering dining room chairs.

Tips for Decorating with Green

Pattern Play

painted rug

Tip the style scale on a basic living room by updating an existing rug with a dose of notched-up pastels. Use painter's tape on an inexpensive sisal rug to create clean outlines of your desired geometric pattern. Apply interior latex paint with a paintbrush or foam roller.

Fresh Frames

Revitalize an existing gallery wall by painting wooden frames with varying springtime shades, like pink, cerulean, and sunny yellow. For floral flair, add silk flowers to your wall art, like the blooming antlers of this room's mounted ceramic deer.

Bask in the Glow

A vintage wire egg basket is the perfect starting point to create a distinctive light fixture. Look for a basket with an interesting pattern and a hole in the bottom for wiring. To fashion a shade, cut a strip of sheer fabric to the length and width of the inside of the basket, plus 1 inch for finishing. Sew the strip into a tube, and stitch or glue to finish the top and bottom edges. Tie the shade to the basket using twine and a large embroidery needle. Hot-glue a small twig nest to the handle for a sweet touch.
