DIY Spring and Summer Apartment Decor

With spring here and summer on the way, you might be looking for ways to brighten up your apartment so that the colors inside your home reflect the changing seasons outside. Here are some easy, non-permanent ways to dress up your apartment with color.

Spring wreaths and floral arrangements

Dress up your front door, or a wall or table inside your home with a spring wreath or floral arrangement. These can be purchased, or if you’re feeling ambitious, you can make one yourself!

Pressed flowers on canvas or behind glass

These crafts require little more than craft glue, wildflowers, and canvas, or a photo frame and glass. Find wildflowers near home or from a florist in whatever colors you desire and instantly drape your walls in color every spring and summer.

Hanging herb garden

Purchase a kit, or create your own with a floating shelf and decorative glass. Some easy indoor options include dill, lavender, parsley, oregano, thyme, sage, and mint.

Mason jar vases

You can use these easy tips to paint your Mason jars in any color you wish, and then add even more color with fake or fresh flowers!

Decorative Bedding and Linens

There are so many options for throw pillows, bright, floral bedding, blankets, and tabletop decor to suit any style. Wayfair offers just a few ideas for spring throw pillows. You can bring these out any time your home needs a touch of color, and store them away again as the seasons change.

Fresh scents

Add some fresh scents to your fake florals by combining essential oils such as lavender, lemon, or eucalyptus with water in a spray bottle or simmer pot and spritz or simmer it to create a refreshing and fragrant space in your home.

Make It Your Own

Most importantly, be you! Choose decor ideas that align with your personal style! If you live at The Riverfront Apartments at Promenade Park, you have the perfect neutral backdrop for decorating with color that coordinates with all styles, in every season.
