You know that first warm, sunny day of the year when you throw open all the windows and everything feels fresh and new again for the first time in what seems like forever? I want to infuse that energy into every room of my home this time of year. This season always makes me feel reenergized and excited about home projects again, and this spring, the first thing on my to-do list is my bedroom. After several long months of bundling up under every blanket I own, I’m ready to shed the winter layers and give my bedding situation a little spring refresh. If that sounds like just the kind of reset you’re craving as well, keep reading for some easy spring bedding ideas to get you ready for the season ahead.
1. Replace winter bedding with lighter materials
Throughout the winter, making your bed as cozy and warm as possible is usually the priority. But as the weather warms up, materials like flannel and fleece can feel a little too heavy. To get ready for warmer temperatures, swap thick winter layers for lighter, more breathable fabrics like cotton or linen. If you love the crisp feeling of hotel sheets, opt for bedding in a percale weave, or go with sateen for that silky smooth feel. I personally love breaking out my linen sheets in the spring—they have that breezy, lived-in look that is just so cozy to me.

2. Swap out solid sheets for a fun pattern
I’m usually a solid-color sheets person, but I recently got myself some botanical-print bedding, and I love how springy my bedroom looks now. It’s a small upgrade that doesn’t have to be super expensive but can make a big impact in giving your bedroom a fresh look. Florals for spring are an obvious choice, but patterns like stripes and gingham can feel equally appropriate for the season.

3. Wash or replace pillows
In the spirit of spring cleaning, now is the perfect time to give your pillows a little TLC. Experts generally recommend replacing your bed pillows every one to two years, which, not gonna lie, is way more often than I would have expected. If your pillows are starting to feel lumpy, flat, or no longer supportive, it’s a good idea to invest in some new ones. If yours are still in good shape, consider throwing them in the washing machine on a gentle cycle (always check the care tag first) to help wash away dust, sweat, and other allergens.

4. Add a colorful throw
Spring signals the start of warmer weather, but there are still plenty of chilly nights left between now and summer. Keeping a throw blanket at the end of your bed is smart if you ever get cold during the night, and it’s the perfect opportunity to introduce a pop of color to your bedroom. Grab a throw in a bright hue to try out a bolder look without a huge commitment or stick with soft pastels that feel like spring.

5. Toss in some new accent pillows
Accent pillows are key to a well-made bed that looks like an actual adult sleeps there, and these can be fun to switch up from season to season. Play around with different shapes, like square Euro pillows with an extra-long lumbar pillow or a cylindrical bolster pillow. This is also a great place to add in a dash of color, pattern, or texture to break up the rest of your bedding.
