Spring is just around the corner, and that means the time will come again to enjoy our decks, porches, and sunrooms with just a light jacket. Spring also brings a sense of renewal, making us want to clean and even redecorate our living spaces. That being said, it only makes sense that you’d want to hit refresh on your sunroom’s decor this spring season!

Here are 6 tips to re-design and add a fresh aura to your deck or porch right now.

1. Add Some New Plants

Spring is all about new growth, and we can see this with the trees and plants that naturally grow their foliage back after the harsh, cold winter. To emulate this in your sunroom, add some new greenery and flowers, whether they be real or faux. You can hang planters from your room’s ceiling or pergola, or you can add some floor plants in decorative pots.

2. Bring in a New Color

Repainting your sunroom’s walls is a great way to spruce things up. You can make a room feel brighter with a lighter color, like mint green or pink, or offset the intensity of the sun coming through the windows or screens with a darker shade, like gray or deep brown.

3. Add Some New Furniture

You can also add color to a porch area with brand new furniture pieces. Consider bringing in upholstered seating that’s adorned with intricate patterns or multiple colors to add interest to the area.

4. Try Out Different Decking

If you have a wood-based deck that’s showing wear from years of use, consider upgrading your deck flooring to a composite deck that can last up to 30 years without major damage. You can replace your old deck with a new composite one and even expand the deck area with a custom deck size.

5. Add On a Pergola

If your deck isn’t already complete with a pergola, you’re missing out. Pergolas are eye-catching, open roofs that can provide your deck with a balance of shade and sun, and they can be added easily to any existing deck or to a brand new one.

6. Invest in a Deck Heater

While some spring days are beautifully sunny here in Virginia, there are some that still aren’t quite warm enough for outdoor living. Consider investing in a deck heater to make your deck comfortable for every spring day.
