Celebrate the change of season
While winter décor focuses on channeling coziness, spring’s vibe is all about welcoming back longer days and more temperate weather. And that means it’s time to pack away the faux fur throws and chunky cable knits. Ready to start adding some spring fever to your home? Check out the following 10 ways to say goodbye to winter.

A spring-flowered wreath and a colorful, weather-resistant rug are perfect for welcoming in the season. Tie them together with cheery throw pillows on a bench or rocker. For a finishing touch, add hanging plants once temps stay balmy.
