Your living room should be one of the most welcoming rooms in your home. After enduring the cold winter months, spring is the perfect time to update and refresh the look of your living room. Updating your living room is simple if you have the right tools and tricks up your sleeve. Discover how easily (and cheaply) you can spruce up your living room decor this spring.

• Add pops of color. Whether you choose to add a bright accent wall or incorporate a color into your decor through colorful accessories, adding color is an easy way to update the existing look of your living room. Try incorporating shades of yellow, turquoise, red, or green in with the neutral colors already in your living space.
• Use texture and patterns. Play with the existing furniture in your living space, and spruce it up with some accessories. Incorporating pillows, throw rugs, or window treatments that feature patterns or textures can help add depth to a room and liven the space.
• Install crown molding. Adding crown molding can instantly upgrade your living room and create a more luxurious feel. Consult an expert to determine the size and texture of crown molding that will look best in your living room.
• Incorporate wall art. Make your living room a more interesting setting by adding art to your walls. Whether it’s a framed painting or a more modern piece of decorative, twisted metal, create a decorative layout for your walls that is intriguing to look at.
• Spruce up your mantel. Add a vase of fresh flowers. Incorporate photos from past family beach trips in decorative frames. Fill your mantel with bright, springtime accent decor. If your living room doesn’t have a fire place, simply add colorful accessories to shelving units or coffee tables for a similar effect.
• Let the sun shine in. Swap out the heavy winter window treatments for their lighter, translucent counter parts. This will allow more light to shine through on a daily basis, allowing spring to come naturally into your living room.
