Spring Refresh: Simple Home Updates That Make a Big Impact (Even if It’s Snowing in Reno)

Adobe Express - file(7)

Reno’s spring has a sense of humor. One minute it’s sunny, the next it’s snowing sideways. But even if the weather’s still chilly, it’s the perfect time to give your home a refresh—without ever leaving the house.

Here are 7 easy indoor updates that make a big impact:

1. Edit the Junk Drawer
Ten minutes, a trash bag, and zero emotional attachment. You’ll thank yourself later.

2. Give Your Plants Some Attention
Whether it’s a repot, a trim, or just a splash of water—your houseplants deserve it. Don’t have one yet? A pothos is a low-maintenance win.

3. Swap Out Throw Pillows
Lighten things up with brighter colors or breezy fabrics. Small change, big mood shift.

4. Reclaim the Entryway
Clear the clutter, toss down a fresh mat, and make it feel intentional—not like a coat rack exploded.

5. Make a Spring Playlist
Yes, music counts as decor. Set the vibe while you declutter or restyle your space.

6. Create a Reading Nook
Inspired by National Read Across America Day earlier this month, carve out a cozy corner to unplug. All it takes is a chair, a light, and a soft blanket.

7. Prep for the Warm Days Ahead
Make a “once-it’s-nice-out” list. Gardening, patio touch-ups, outdoor paint—it’ll be ready when you are.


Thinking about a spring refresh or getting your home market-ready?
Let’s talk about what updates make the most impact in today’s Reno market. We’re here to guide you every step of the way.
