One impactful swap is to switch out your current tablecloth for one of the most talked-about Kmart homewares of the season: the $17 pink/red stripe extra large tablecloth.
2. Use homewares made with lightweight, breathable materials
Replace thick winter fabrics with lighter, breathable pieces, especially in the bedroom where hot nights can be stickier and more restless when sheets and quilts aren’t made from the right materials.
“Opt for lightweight fabrics like cotton and linen blends,” tips the Kmart spokesperson.
“Patterns like botanical prints, subtle stripes or soft geometrics work beautifully in spring. For texture, go for waffle weaves or light quilting, these add interest without the bulk.”
3. Fragrance is the finishing touch
It’s not just about what you see and feel in a home that makes it feel fresh and new, smells make a difference, too.

“Scent plays a powerful role in shaping the atmosphere of your home. It’s the finishing touch that brings your styling to life. At Kmart this spring, we’re seeing a beautiful range of candles, diffusers and room sprays featuring fresh and uplifting notes that perfectly complement the season.”
Citrus blends are known for giving an “energising and clean” feel, and of course, any fruity aroma will feel like summer.
White floral fragrance like jasmine has a “soft and romantic” vibe, while vanilla and coconut adds “sweetness and warmth” and reminders of a tropical holiday.
With these simple, budget-friendly changes, you can effortlessly transform your home into a bright, inviting oasis ready to embrace the warmer months ahead.
