Move over green, Spring 2024 sees the arrival of blue home decor. Not the teal or darker hues of recent years, but a growing trend towards optimistic, calming sky blue. Combined with vintage vibes and the cottagecore aesthetic, this latest Spring look creates a fresh yet cosy, whimsical vibe. 2024 has also seen the “unexpected red theory” go viral, continuing enthusiasm for scallops, plus ruffles and stripes. Read on to discover how to incorporate these Spring home decor trends into to your home.
Blue Sky Thinking
Echoing Valspar’s colour of the year “Renew Blue“, sky blue features prominently in many Spring 2024 home collections. Paired with floral patterns and antique styles, this look evokes the cottagecore aesthetic but with a more muted, monochrome colour palette.

Unexpected Red
As an alternative to colour drenching, pair the trend for sky blues with another emerging home decor trend, “the unexpected red theory“. This suggests that adding any element of red into a room (where it wouldn’t normally feature) instantly improves the space. This can be something as small as a lamp or cushion, or as prominent as wallpaper or bedding.

Ruffles, Scallops and Stripes (Oh My!)
Add texture and interest with ruffles, scallops and stripes to achieve this modern yet whimsical take on the vintage vibe. Choose accents in Spring colours such as peach, pink, yellow and sage green. Look for ruffled cushions, delicately patterned wallpaper, scalloped furniture, bobbin frames or striped linen and ceramics (cat optional).
