Blossoming flowers, the soft whisper of a gentle breeze, and the unmistakable warmth of the sun—spring is upon us, heralding a season of renewal and transformation. It's a time to leave behind the chill of winter and welcome the thaw with open arms. And as nature shakes off the cold, it's the perfect cue for your home to do the same.

Spring is one of my favorite seasons in Charleston as the weather isn't quite too hot yet, and everything is in bloom. It's the perfect time to walk around downtown and explore everything Charleston has to offer. 

This is the year to truly transform your living space, breathing new life into every corner of your abode. Whether you're an avid gardener longing to bring the outdoors in or an interior design enthusiast eager to experiment with fresh color palettes, my spring home refresh guide is your key to embracing the new season with zest and zeal.

Join me as I take you on a home refresh adventure - one that promises to invigorate your living space, bringing luxury and charm right to your doorstep.

Setting the Scene for Spring

Picture this: the first morning of spring, when the world outside is just starting to wake up. We're all familiar with this annual transformation, but this year, I invite spring to not just knock on our doors but to walk right in and make itself at home.

Your living space can mirror this transformation, evolving in sync with the natural world. My refresh isn't just about reorganizing furniture; it's about reorganizing your internal space to resonate with the change of season. It’s about personal renewal and finding joy in your own home.

Decluttering and Organizing: For a Fresher and More Inviting Home

Before the blooming begins, consider a deep cleanse. Open your windows, and breathe in the spring air. It's the perfect companion to the exercise of decluttering and organizing—a ritual that can feel cleansing for both your space and your mind.

Decluttering doesn't just mean donating old clothes or throwing away unused items. It also means rearranging and organizing your belongings, so everything has its own place. A clutter-free home creates a sense of calm, making it easier to relax and recharge in your own personal sanctuary.

Our linen sprays work wonders in revitalizing furniture and bedding. The refreshing scents add a delicate touch, leaving spaces feeling fresh without any overpowering chemical odor.

Embrace Nature: Bringing the Outdoors In

As the world outside comes to life, don't be afraid to let a little bit of that energy in. Houseplants are a great way to introduce nature into your home, and they offer a range of benefits from improving air quality to boosting mood and reducing stress.

You can also bring in fresh flowers or create your own indoor herb garden for a touch of natural beauty and fragrance. Not only does it add an element of luxury, but it also connects you to the changing seasons and reminds you to appreciate the little things in life.

I really wanted to add some of my favorite things to our new spring collection, and while I am quite the novice when it comes to gardening, I love the idea of growing my own flowers, fruits, and vegetables to be enjoyed by my family. Be sure to explore our new range of seeds, garden tools, and planters to craft your own tranquil indoor oasis!

Experiment with Color: Refresh Your Palette

There's no better way to revitalize your space than by experimenting with color. Spring is all about pastels and bright, vibrant tones that mimic the blossoming flowers outside. Consider adding a pop of color through accent furniture, throw pillows, or statement wall art.

If you're feeling adventurous, consider repainting a room in a new color or introducing a trendy design trend such as wallpaper with bold floral prints. We've also loved adding colorful glassware options to our table for a bright hint of spring. The options are endless, and the outcome is sure to bring new life into your home.

The Power of Scent: Elevate Your Space

Last but certainly not least, don't underestimate the power of scent in transforming your home. Spring is the perfect time to switch out heavy winter scents for fresh, light aromas that evoke feelings of warmth and rejuvenation.

My favorite scents for spring are bright, fresh, and floral. Here are my top picks:

• No. 2 Church Street with jasmine, honeysuckle, and lemon
• No. 9 Kiawah Island with rose, mandarin, and amber
• No. 12 Southern Magnolia with magnolia, peach, and balsam
