I love the time when spring enters the home. It's not just about the change of season, but a real change of pace, transforming spaces: the light becomes softer, the air lighter, and I feel the need to bring this freshness to the details around me as well. 

It only takes a little: a new tablecloth that welcomes the first outdoor meals, light sheets that smell clean, pillows in pastel shades that give a new face to the sofa.

Every year I am surprised at how color can change the perception of a room. It's as if the house is breathing, ready to welcome the warm season with an elegance that doesn't need excess. 

This spring I chose to play with shades that make me feel good: sage green, which reminds me of walks in blooming gardens, honey yellow that warms the room without weighing it down, powder pink that is always a great idea for a refined and timeless table setting.

And since March is the perfect month to renovate your home, from March 20 to March 30, 2025 we have come up with the “Spring Wind” promo: a selection of our best-loved products at a discount, so you can give your rooms a new touch with the sartorial quality of Borgo delle Tovaglie.

 The colors of spring: a question of balance 

For me, the choice of colors is always a matter of instinct; some shades give me a sense of calm, others transmit energy. In spring I always look for a balance between these two worlds: I want the house to be bright, but without losing that serene elegance that makes me feel good.

This year I am inspired by the softest greens, perfect for fabrics and details that never get tired. Yellow ochre, in the right doses, has the power to give character to a room without being overdone. And then there are the dusty shades of light blue and pink, always current, never mundane. But my golden rule is always the same: color must accompany, not dominate. It must be an accent, a note that dialogues with the space without overpowering it.

An ideal tour of advice for me always starts from the kitchen, the heart of the home: let's see how to renovate it with the colors of the beautiful season!

 The kitchen: patterns and colors that make a difference

The kitchen also deserves a spring touch, and it is one of the rooms where I love to have the most fun with fabrics and patterns. The mix of practicality and aesthetics is key, and it really only takes a little to transform it into a fresher, more curated space.

For me, it all starts with stain-resistant linen and cotton placemats, perfect for a quick breakfast or to add a touch of style to even the most informal moments. I love pairing them with toile de Jouy patterned dishcloths, which in the peach version add a timeless elegance, perfect for spring. I leave them hanging near the countertop or folded carefully on a shelf, because even the simplest details can become decorative.

Another great classic of the season is the vichy checkerboard, which always finds its place in the kitchen. I can choose it for placemats, for a small runner, or even for aprons, because it has that playful lightness that goes perfectly with a cozy environment. If I want to give it a more sophisticated touch, on the other hand, I rely on thin stripes: an understated but incredibly elegant pattern, especially in shades of ivory andL dusty blue.

And then there are the accessories: handcrafted enameled stoneware bowls, ideal for serving fresh fruit or homemade desserts, and wicker bread baskets, which add a touch of rustic chic. On the table, a light white linen tablecloth can be embellished with an embroidered placemat such as Venaria, perfect for a mise en place that smacks of spring without being excessive.

Most important, though, is the light. In spring I want it to come in everywhere, enhancing textures and making every detail more vibrant and full of life. That's why I always keep a few aromatic plants by the window, perhaps in small terracotta pots, to bring a touch of green and nature into the kitchen as well. Basil, thyme, and rosemary are not only useful while I'm cooking, but they add that fresh scent that makes the atmosphere even more welcoming.

The bedroom: simple details between sheets and pillowcases

Spring is the perfect time to revamp the bedroom with lighter fabrics and cool tones, without sacrificing comfort and elegance. I love the idea of entering a room dressed in soothing colors, where every detail is designed to create a cozy atmosphere.

For the bed, linen is always my first choice: washed linen sheets give an instant feeling of freshness, soft and perfect to accompany sleep on milder nights. If I want an extra touch of sophistication, I opt for jacquard linen, with its delicate tone-on-tone woven pattern, which gives a subtle elegance without weighing down the room. I love pairing them with pillowcases with small tailored embroidery, for a bed with attention to detail.

With spring weather, you don't need a heavy comforter, but there are nights when an extra layer of warmth is needed. For these occasions, the two-tone, reversible Pure linen and cotton bedspread is the perfect solution: lightweight yet enveloping, it can simply be laid at the foot of the bed, ready to be used when needed. I like its versatility, because I can choose its more neutral side in shades of ochre and milk for an understated look, or play with the contrasting color of light blues to give the room a stronger accent.

Le tende In garza di lino

Lightweight impalpables to filter natural light and create a relaxing and sophisticated atmosphere. And to give an extra touch of spring, just a small vase with peach tulips or white buttercups, placed on the nightstand or dresser.

The beauty of the spring bedroom lies in just that: a balance of lightness and comfort, of fresh colors and natural textures. It is the perfect place to welcome the new season, without the need for major revolutions, but with small details that make all the difference.

The living room: lightness and enveloping textures

Every spring I feel the need to breathe new life into the living room, making it fresher and brighter. I always start with fabrics, which for me are the soul of the house. Heavy plaids give way to light linen blankets with patterns of petalie leaves , perfect for wrapping up in the still somewhat cool evenings without weighing down the room.

The sofa is dressed in new colors: pillows in shades of sage, peach and cream alternate with embroidered linen pieces, creating a mix of textures that gives depth and warmth. I like to mix solid colors and delicate patterns, playing with the contrast between smooth materials and ornate details.

A rug can also completely transform a space. I love those in natural fibers, such as cotton or jute, in neutral tones of sand or greige, perfect for enhancing the brightness of the room without weighing it down.
