Celebrating Spring Equinox

It’s starting to feel like spring! And as of March 20th, it’s officially the beginning of this brighter new season. Finally, earlier sunrises, longer days, and if you look closely, the hopeful emergence of tiny buds signaling warmer days to come. The March equinox hails the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. It marks a seminal moment when the sun crosses the celestial equator going from south to north. We love it because it means it’s time to open the curtains, clear out the closets, shake out the rugs and reimagine a lighter, brighter décor story. Here’s what to do:

1. Embrace the Change

We love summer, fall and winter for the same reason we love spring – it’s an opportunity to enjoy all the pleasures that each season brings. Transitioning from winter to spring means not totally letting go of the soft, textured comforts that cold weather demands – but it could mean switching out pillow covers, rearranging tablescapes, putting a new vase collection on the table or introducing a new scent to the house. The idea is to mark the season. The earth is making a slow yet dramatic transition. Make the extra effort and design your surroundings to reflect (and celebrate!) that shift.

2. Reimagine a Focal Point

We love this modern Danish credenza going from piled high with books and stacks of paperwork, to an organized décor pantheon of candlesticks and mercury glass. Taking an isolated, functional space and transforming it into something beautiful, is one of the easiest ways to “redecorate” without tackling the whole house – which as we all know, just isn’t realistic. Mercury glass decor reigns supreme in reflection and adding any light to it (or around it) illuminates a space in spades.

3. Candlelight in Daylight

While winter has us lighting tea lights, lanterns, and candlesticks starting around 4 pm, March and April encourage the lighting of candles in the morning or at lunchtime, and further illuminate the changing daylight coming through the windows. Whether in an office, kitchen or dining room, candlelight during daytime brings a warm element without signaling the end of the day. We need little orbs of glowing positivity, and our mercury glass candle holders are one of the easiest, most elegant ways to achieve this.

4. Take a Walk

Sounds so simple, but many of us have been on a winter schedule that has us indoors for most of the day. Instead of sitting at your desk for lunch or hopping straight into the car after work, take a stroll – especially if you live near wilderness, farmland, a beach or river. Wrap up in something lovely and step out! You won’t regret the peace of mind it brings, and the good ideas that usually come with a stroll.

So let’s get going. It’s time to let the light in, to embrace the longer days, to find the spring in your step (and your decor)! Start at home with simple, intentional visual cues that say, “change is in the air!” Because it truly is.
