Spring Into Summer: Easy Bedroom Updates for a Light & Refreshing Look

Share

As the days grow longer and the sunshine brighter, there’s no better time to give your bedroom a seasonal refresh. At City Mattress, we believe your bedroom should reflect the calm, comfort, and lightness of spring and summer. Whether you’re starting from scratch or simply swapping a few pieces, a seasonal bedroom makeover can energize your space—and your mood.

Here are some easy and stylish ways to welcome the warmer months into your bedroom with light colors, breathable fabrics, and cozy touches:

 

1. Embrace a Lighter Palette

Start with a simple color refresh. Swap out deep winter hues for soft, sunny tones. Think pale blues, warm whites, blush pinks, or fresh greens—colors that evoke blooming flowers and clear skies.

Expert Tip: You don’t need to repaint the walls. Try new bedding, curtains, or decorative pillows in light, airy shades to brighten your entire room with minimal effort.

 

2. Switch to Breathable Bedding

Warm nights call for cool comfort. Trade in heavy comforters and flannel sheets for lightweight, breathable linens. Materials like cotton, linen, bamboo, and Tencel™ are perfect for regulating temperature while adding an elegant, casual feel.

Explore our collection of moisture-wicking sheets and summer-weight quilts at City Mattress—designed to keep you cool, comfortable, and sleeping soundly all season long.

3. Layer for Texture, Not Warmth

Just because it’s summer doesn’t mean you should skimp on comfort. Layering still adds depth and coziness—just opt for lighter layers. A gauzy throw blanket, a waffle-knit bedspread, or a few linen euro shams can add a soft, stylish touch without overheating your sleep sanctuary.

 

4. Bring Nature Indoors

Nothing says spring and summer like the fresh feel of the outdoors. Add a touch of nature with a vase of fresh flowers, dried lavender bundles, faux botanicals, or low-maintenance houseplants like snake plants or pothos.

Better yet, choose furniture with natural textures—rattan headboards, light wood nightstands, or woven baskets—to bring a calm, organic vibe to your space.

 

5. Declutter & Reorganize

Spring cleaning isn’t just a tradition—it’s a reset for your space and your mind. Clear out the clutter, donate unused items, and reimagine your layout for better flow and function.

Looking for smart storage options? Check out our bed frames with built-in storage, elegant dressers, or space-saving nightstands to keep everything tidy without sacrificing style.

6. Update Your Accents

Sometimes, a few small changes make a big impact. Swap out heavy drapes for sheer curtains that let the sunlight pour in. Add a coastal-inspired rug for a breezy vibe underfoot. Or upgrade your lighting with a stylish bedside lamp or natural woven pendant for a soft evening glow.
