BE A LIGHT SLEEPER. 
Spring is the time to throw open bedroom windows and put away the winter bedding. Change your duvet cover and change the way you see your room. Don’t worry; you can still layer like a pro. Just choose crisp linens and softer patterns (go on, mix stripes and florals!) for an eye-opening, overall lighter look



GREEN IS GOOD.

Green is the hue we most associate with spring — think baby buds and brand-new lawns — so it’s a natural for giving a room an energizing makeover in minutes. Right now we’re crushing on the dreamy botanical green that adorns our exquisite porcelain jars. One handpainted jar is a singular beauty; four or more go beyond fabulous.

SAY IT WITH FLOWERS. 
If one thing says spring, it’s flowers. They add color and cheer to any room, but sadly, cut flowers quickly lose their bloom. We’ve got a happier solution: natural-looking, showstopping faux flowers that capture the beauty of nature and never wilt or fade. Add drama with a rich arrangement of peonies, their tall stems twirled together to form a gorgeous bouquet.

CLEAR THE WAY. 
A dated ceiling pendant can’t help but cast a tired, old glow… so replace it with an on-trend, affordable clear-glass fixture for a sleek, new look. Whether in a hallway, a bath, or over a table, single-bulb pendants are easy to swap out and they’ll brighten and transform a space in a flash.

PUT SOME SPRING IN YOUR STEP.
