It’s always a good plan to have new retail window display ideas in the hopper so you can plan ahead, gather your props, and be prepared when it’s time to change the display. Spring’s a’ comin’, and it’ll soon be time to update the window displays, so let’s go over a couple of really excellent Spring retail window display ideas.
Right up, you should know that clear fishing lines will figure prominently in these retail window displays. We love this stuff! It’s a deal for hanging props or merchandise as focal points without the distraction of visible string, ribbon, or rope.
Simple Store Window Displays for Spring
A simple and inexpensive way to draw attention to your Spring retail window displays is to hang accordion-fold tissue paper flowers or paper fans from the ceiling or the top of a window frame. It’s so easy! This doesn’t necessarily need to be a “theme” window; it is just an easy way to draw the eye as people pass by. The free-floating flowers and fans get attention. Naturally, folks will look in the window where your merchandise is neatly displayed. You can likely find paper fans, flowers, and Japanese lanterns at any dollar store or party supply store.
Free Bird
Vintage-style birdcages are attractive and have a fun, funky feel, especially if you spray paint them in a color that really pops. Take a look at this window display from Slimline Warehouse. We love how they made the birdcages the draw but then placed jewelry displays inside the cages, causing people to look more closely. Beautiful! These cages can be hung with fishing lines from the ceiling or placed on display tables in the window or selling floor.
Do not, however, use live birds in these types of Spring retail window displays! It would be extremely stressful for the birds, and the accompanying poop and feathers are just not appealing props. Birdcages aren’t just for jewelry displays, either. You can also suspend other small merchandise inside the cage with a fishing line, giving a free-floating appearance. Stores like Pier One and World Market carry these types of birdcages. You might also have luck finding them—and other Spring retail window display ideas—in thrift stores and at garage sales. Keep your eyes open!
