Bring in the Spring with these Home Tips
/Except, of course, on the west coast, where winter is pleasant, who wouldn't adore that comforting warmth the sun offers after all those chilly days and long nights?
And as all that snow melts, allowing lovely flowers to bloom and lush vegetation to flourish, you'll want to greet spring with open arms. Don't you think it's time to dust off the cobwebs in your house and prepare it for the new season when you're allowing in the warmth of your heart and soul?
Experiment with where you put your home decor.
Why not just leave all of the furniture in one position all of the time — after all, they aren't glued to the ground or anything? So, just play about with the positioning of your couches, sofas, coffee tables, and other furniture. Simply lay some fresh flowers in a vase on the center table or in one of the house's corners to liven it up a little. This offers it an entirely new look without requiring the purchase of new furniture. So you've hit two birds with one stone: you've given your house a facelift while also saving a lot of money!
Freshen Up!
There may be some, if not a lot, of repairs to be done in your home, as things break all the time, especially if you have small children. And, given the cold weather that makes you lazy, winter may not be the best time to repair it. So, once the season is over, it's time to crawl out of your couch and finish those long-overdue repairs.
Clean all of the windows and allow the light in.
When we take on the task of cleaning our homes, we frequently overlook the windows. And if you look closely, you can see tiny stains, nose prints, or those adorable little paw prints if you have a pet.
Why leave it behind when you can put on some gloves, get some Windex, and some paper towels to clean the windows? And, since it's spring, it doesn't hurt to open them up and let some fresh air and warm sun in!
Organize Your Garage
If you have a garage, it's an unspoken fact that you just throw everything in there during the winter to avoid being out in the cold. Now that the season has passed, it's time to pick up those items and put them back where they belong. Also, get rid of any that you don't think you'll need and stock up on gardening supplies, as you'll need them more frequently than before. And don't worry about the time; you'd only need one afternoon to reinstall the garage.
