18 Items to Help Spruce Up Your Home for Spring

April 18, 2017 by Alex Hendrickson

When switching seasons, it only takes an item or two (or 18) to freshen up your living space. Purchase these picks for spring and let them stick around through the summer. These finds for the kitchen, living room and outdoors come from local shops with spring in mind. It was a challenge to select just one item from each store, because they are all brimming with so much new inventory. Do a little spring cleaning followed by a little spring shopping to see what these spots have to offer.

Paradise pillow

Snag one of these beauties from Harpeth Gallery and you’ll instantly brighten any chair, bench or couch in your home. This is one of the many pillows in the store, but it just so happens to be our favorite. Buy one for $188 or purchase the pair at Harpeth Gallery.

Bud vases

Mix and match these clear glass bud vases. And when you don’t have time to fill them with fresh flowers, they can easily stand on their own. Find them for $12 each at FABU.
