Spring Bedding
For Spring, the focus often shifts to revitalizing and refreshing the bedroom with designs that mirror the season's essence—light, airy, and full of life. In this blog, we will explore some bedding design ideas that are perfect for Spring.
As the days grow longer and the weather begins to warm, there's a natural inclination to transform our sleeping spaces into sanctuaries of serenity and renewal. With the arrival of Spring, we're inspired to embrace nature's bounty and infuse our bedrooms with elements that evoke feelings of freshness and vitality. From vibrant floral patterns to soothing pastel hues, each design choice is carefully curated to capture the essence of the season and create a harmonious retreat for rest and relaxation. Join us as we embark on a journey to discover the endless possibilities of Spring-inspired bedding design, where every detail is thoughtfully considered to cultivate a sense of joy and renewal in our homes.
Floral Patterns
Spring is synonymous with flowers blooming, so bedding with floral patterns can bring a sense of freshness and vibrancy to your bedroom. In addition to floral patterns, consider incorporating botanical prints featuring lush leaves and blossoms to further enhance the Spring ambiance in your bedroom. These prints can infuse your space with the verdant beauty of Spring's awakening, bringing a touch of nature indoors.
Experiment with oversized floral patterns to make a bold statement in your bedroom, adding drama and personality to your space. Consider mixing and matching different floral prints for a eclectic and bohemian look that reflects the vibrant energy of springtime. Incorporate floral accents in unexpected places, such as wallpaper or upholstered furniture, to create a cohesive and harmonious design scheme. Don't be afraid to play with color, opting for bright and bold hues to inject a sense of joy and vitality into your bedroom decor. Balance out the boldness of floral patterns with neutral bedding essentials, allowing the vibrant florals to take center stage and command attention.
Pastel Colors
Softer shades such as taupe, soft blue, and blush pink reflect the gentle colors of Spring and can create a serene and calming environment, complementing natural light and making your room feel more spacious and airy. To complement your pastel bedding, add accents of gold or brass accessories for a touch of warmth and sophistication. These metallic accents can add a subtle glow to your room, enhancing the overall ambiance and creating a luxurious feel.
Create a romantic and dreamy atmosphere in your bedroom by layering various shades of pastel colors, such as lavender, peach, and mint green, to evoke the softness and serenity of springtime. Introduce subtle pops of color with decorative accents like throw pillows or area rugs, adding depth and visual interest to your bedding ensemble. Embrace the versatility of pastel hues by experimenting with different textures and finishes, from plush velvet to silky satin, to create a multi-dimensional and luxurious look. Incorporate natural elements like fresh flowers or botanical artwork to enhance the organic and soothing feel of pastel-colored bedding.
For a springlike feel, why not opt for a muted palette of greens and blues to create a comforting, soothing scheme? Or for a more vibrant joyful approach, yellow is a shade that is so synonymous with spring flowers and can bring positivity to a space and make us feel uplifted, energized, and invited.

Lightweight Fabrics
As the weather warms, switch to lighter materials like cotton, linen, and bamboo which off breathability and moisture-wicking properties to keep you cool and comfortable. Along with cotton, linen, and bamboo, consider incorporating organic cotton or Tencel™ fabrics into your bedding ensemble. These eco-friendly materials offer enhanced breathability and moisture-wicking properties, ensuring a comfortable and sustainable sleep environment.
Explore the timeless elegance of linen bedding, known for its softness, durability, and breathability, making it the perfect choice for spring and summer months. Embrace the natural wrinkles and texture of linen fabric, adding a casual and relaxed vibe to your bedroom decor. Create a cozy and inviting sleep sanctuary by layering lightweight blankets or throws in complementary colors and textures, adding warmth and comfort without adding bulk. Enhance the luxurious feel of linen bedding with plush accent pillows or cozy knit blankets, adding a touch of softness and warmth to your space.
The easiest way to do a spring bedding refresh this is to swap out your bedding for lighter pieces. In my home I switch out our flannel sheets, feather-down filled duvets, and velvet quilts for linen, silk, and cotton versions come spring Bethany Adams, designer
Nautical Themes
Nautical themes with interesting stripes offer a fresh, clean look that’s perfect for Spring. This design can evoke feelings of calmness and relaxation, reminiscent of a breezy day by the sea. To complete the nautical look, adorn your bed with decorative pillows featuring ocean motifs. These embellishments can add a playful touch to your bedding ensemble, further enhancing the coastal charm of your bedroom retreat.
Embrace the laid-back coastal vibe with bedding inspired by nautical themes and maritime motifs, creating a serene and inviting retreat reminiscent of a beachside getaway. Infuse your space with the relaxed elegance of coastal decor by incorporating a soothing color palette of ocean blues, sandy neutrals, and crisp whites, evoking the tranquility of seaside living. Add depth and dimension to your bedding ensemble with textured accents like woven baskets, rattan furniture, or driftwood decor, adding a touch of natural beauty and authenticity to your space. Create a cozy and inviting atmosphere by layering plush blankets or throws in soft, tactile fabrics like cotton or chenille, adding warmth and comfort to your bed.
Floral Collections - Subtle or Bright, Spring is All About Flowers
Nothing quite says Spring like flowers do. We really are in love with the idea of floral bedding for Spring. It's like bringing some of the freshness of the season indoors. Whether it is a sophisticated blush and taupe Jacobean floral, like the gorgeous Ophelia Duvet and Comforter Sets (also available as a quilt); the bright cheeriness of the tropical Malana Quilt Set (also available as a duvet or comforter) or the subtle blues of the Adare Quilt Set, Levtex Home's Floral Collection has something for everyone.
Pastel Colors - Soothing Spring Time Shades
Pastel colors are inherently soothing and can create a sense of calmness in your sleeping environment. Shades like blush pink, pale blue, and mint green have been shown to reduce stress and anxiety. Using those colors in your bedroom can help you unwind and relax at the end of the day.
The Lara Spa Collection from Levtex Home is one of our favorites. The sophisticated medallion pattern in white and light grey sits on a sea of spa blue, creating an instantly serene bedroom. If you prefer something without print or pattern, you might choose one of the pastel colors available in the Cross Stitch Quilt Collection - soft sage, blush, spa or even white or taupe.
Lightweight Fabrics - Keeping It Airy
Spring is the perfect time to start thinking about lightweight fabrics and nothing quite captures the breezy freshness of Spring like 100% linen. Levtex Home's Linen Duvet Collection is perfect. Available in 15 fashion colors and made from French linen, the duvet cover is a great Spring/Summer weight and the collection offers matching shams and euro shams in all colors and a wonderful white sheet set for those who really want to embrace the concept of linen. For those who prefer a lightweight quilt, there is also an extensive Linen Quilt Collection.
Nautical Bedding - A Bedroom At The Beach
For those who really want to embrace the arrival of warmer weather and the promise of warm walks along the beach, nothing quite invokes the seaside like stripes. Levtex Home offers options in its extensive Coastal Bedding Collection. We are particularly partial to the Tobago Stripe Quilt Set - its simple blue on white stripe is the perfectly versatile bedding set that allows you to leave your room classic and clean or become the perfect backdrop for really embracing the coastal theme with blankets, throw and decorative pillows.
Layering Your Bedding
Spring weather can be unpredictable, so layering different textures can provide both function and style. We will leave you with our favorite example of a layered bed that really captures the essence of Spring. Start with Levtex's 300 thread count crisp sateen sheets, add the Mills Waffle Duvet Set in white, layer the Clara Quilt on top before draping the Tobago throw to complete the scene. The classic combination of colors, textures, fabrics and patterns is the perfect embodiment of Spring. Have fun with your choices to create your perfect Spring Bedroom.
Layer in lots of texture. Linens and pillows, all of the texture will give a sense of lushness and luxury that instantly relaxes the body. Krystal Holm, founder of Designed Life Studio
