Along with Easter festivities and, if we’re lucky, a little glimpse of sun, springtime can feel like the perfect opportunity for a homewares revamp.
Refreshing our living spaces, even if it’s just in the smallest way, can be such a simple way to reset, whether you’re keen to incorporate revitalising greenery into your home, or add a statement piece to your outdoor space to make the most of the warmer weather.
Enter the new Scandi-inspired homewares collection from John Lewis which is giving us all the inspo we need for a little May-time flair in our abodes this spring.
The collection has been lovingly curated by interior blogger and hygge expert, Reena Simon, and spans everything from crockery and lighting to side tables and blankets.
And with appearances from the retailer’s budget Anyday range, you’ll find some very affordable price points too.
As an ode to Scandinavian interior design, the collection aims to foster a sense of coziness and calm in the home, and with simple and understated designs that are built to last, we’ve pulled a handful of our favourite gems from the retailer’s collection that are sure to breathe a little serenity into your living space.
