Indoor:

Entry Rug
Want to make a good first impression with your house guests? Entry rugs are the perfect way to do so. Spring is all about fresh colours so use this element to add some to the space with fun patterns and hues. When choosing a rug, be sure that it can withstand the mud and moisture from the various pairs of rain boots coming and going.

Fresh Flowers
I cannot think of a better way to add a touch of Spring to your entryway than to add some fresh greenery and flowers. If you feel as if you don’t have enough time or inclination to take care of real plants, buy some faux ones that will give you the look you want with no commitment required.
