Does anyone know who invented the concept of rubbing your tummy and patting your head?

I want to send them a thank-you note.

Remember that from school?

It’s where I learned the art of truly multitasking.

I’m sitting here waiting for my fake tan to dry and using a gua sha tool to try and train my forehead, listening to an audiobook, and decluttering around the house.

It’s amazing what can be accomplished when you put your mind (or your tummy and your head) to it.

Like spring decorating in the kitchen.

And my spring kitchen decorating was inspired by the spring flowers at Trader Joe’s. If you still have winter hanging around your house and you need a little spring? Stop by the flower section of the grocery store.

Today I’m sharing 11 easy spring kitchen decor ideas.

I hope it inspires the snowflakes away. 🙂

1. Add a spring pillow

And look at this little corner.

See those embroidered lavender pillows? Aren’t they the cutest?

And can you see where I added one of the artist houses to the FARM letters my brother made?

(This is a pillow I’ve had for several years. I found some similar embroidered pillow covers to try to be helpful. You can see them here.)

2. Add topiaries to a window

I added a row of topiaries to the kitchen window.

Here’s a quick topiary tip.

If you have a pot that doesn’t match your decor? Wrap the base in paper cut from a paper grocery bag.

3. Use a basket to decorate the island

I found this basket years ago at Hobby Lobby.

I’ve searched and searched over hill and over dale to try to find one that’s similar and I’ve never been able to find another one.

It’s the perfect base to decorate with for spring. You could also use a large tray or even an oversized piece of wood as a base, too.

4. Decorate with greenery

I used things I collected over the years to create the display, but I was able to link a few things in case you want to create a similar look. You may have tons of things in your spring decorating closet that you can use already–if so–just use this for inspiration.

5. Use books for height

I put the basket flat on the center of the kitchen island.

Then I placed a large stack of books in the center (the gray striped book actually opens up—so I use it for storage, too).

Next, I placed another smaller stack of books on the right side.

Books are the perfect way to layer in pieces in your display.

6. Decorate with topiaries

I’ve made my own topiaries before (you can see how I DIY’d a topiary with a coat hanger here).

I scattered my topiaries around the books and inside the basket.

I added a little mini topiary in front of the stack of books.

Then I added this $3.97 boxwood sphere in front of the topiaries. The key is just to keep fussing until it makes you happy. I still rearrange it sometimes when I walk by.

7. Add vintage spring posters

Then I added a few more bits of spring.

This nest poster is under $10.

You can see a super similar version here.

8. Add vintage or handmade pieces

Remember the story of the house that an artist created a miniature of my house?

I couldn’t put the houses away for Christmas and I added most of them to the hutch in the family room.

But this house? It’s special. I added it to a tiny pedestal and added it to the kitchen island.

9. Add woven textures for spring

I love these kitchen stools at the end of the kitchen island.

They have a rustic woven seat and great detailing on the legs.

The stools look so high-end, but they are actually really affordable.

You can see them here.

10. Add flowers

Nothing says spring like flowers.

I got these at Trader Joe’s.

The base came wrapped in paper and I think it’s such a clever idea for spring pots.

11. Faux marble dish drying mat

My last tip is kind of spring decor and kind of super-extra-helpful and useful.

Our dishwasher broke several months ago. It’s so expensive to fix, so I started washing dishes by hand. We don’t really have a ton of dishes and I discovered I actually like doing the dishes by hand and not having to dread emptying the dishwasher all the time.

I was using a towel on the counter, but the towel would get wet and the dishes wouldn’t really dry that well if I just left them on the counter.

And then?

I found the MOST BRILLIANT OF SOLUTIONS.

This Panutta stone dish drying mat that looks like marble. It’s truly a miracle worker. The dishes dry super fast because the stone is extra absorbent and the stone sits on these little silicone feet so your counter doesn’t get moldy and it looks so pretty just sitting on the counter. It’s such a good size to hold tons of dishes when they are drying. I have marble countertops already so it just blends in.

You can see the stone here.
