1. Propagated pothos
A simple way to decorate your mantel for spring is to use a trailing plant like pothos to add some vivid greens to your space. The color alone will read as bright and reminiscent of spring, but the plants themselves growing makes this a classy way to celebrate the season of rebirth and renewal.
2. Textures and neutrals
For a subtle spring mantel decor look try combining different textures in various neutrals. Using the same or similar tones keeps everything cohesive and understated while the textures add interest. The dried florals bring the spring vibes in while still working with the effect of the vases.
3. Fresh blooms
Simple glass vases house live and growing blooms, the perfect way to decorate for spring in a modern and elegant way. These are accented with a spring themed art piece and other elements that you can use for the mantel year round.
4. Greenery
Spring is the time when the plants reawaken and everything is fresh and green, so why not have your spring mantel decor reflect that? Decorating your mantel with greenery and using buds and blooms, either store bought or from outside is a quick and easy way to bring the season into your home.
5. Fern fronds
Going with a motif for your mantel is a great way to make it feel cohesive and elegant. Ferns are a lovely option for spring due to their vivid green color and graceful form. Using ferns and plants in multiple ways keeps things interesting while maintaining an identifiable theme.
6. Soft pinks
If green is not your favorite, you can always layer a light or bright color of your choice. Here pastel pinks in multiple forms bring some springtime brightness to a mantel without leaning too hard into greenery or animal figurines.
7. Animal figurines
While many shy away from animal figurines, they can look great when well integrated into your decor. These rabbits aren’t the star of the show, but by playing off the bright greens they tilt the look to read fresh and ready for spring.
8. Sculptural blooms
A shortcut to spring mantel decor is to add flowers you’ve collected from outside to your existing setup, bonus points if they’re on branches that will add beautiful verticality like shown above. With that one touch the entire look will take on a springtime air. Just be sure not to disfigure the plant you’re harvesting from!
9. Tulips and porcelain
Blue and white porcelain is a spring and summer classic. It’s crisp, bright, and elegant, especially when paired with white tulips. The overall effect is clean and happy without being over the top.
10. Fresh foliage
Sometimes it doesn’t take much to give your decor a springtime twist. A couple sprigs of delicate flowers hint at the world awakening outside without dominating the look.
11. Pale greens
Pastels of all times are springtime classics, but this pale green particularly fun. It’s reminiscent of new growth and is the perfect choice to brighten up a room. Here it acts as the focal point among neutrals, but it also works great as an accent.
12. Spring wreath
A spring wreath is a fun way of mixing up your spring mantel decor by taking advantage of the wall space beyond. From there you only need a few elements to complement your festive focal point.
13. Keep it simple
Sometimes we overcomplicate things. A rabbit figurine flanked by pink tulips is about as straightforward as you can get and, while this isn’t on a mantel, something like this could work really well.
