Now that the weather is getting warmer and the days are getting longer, it’s time to start thinking about sprucing up your home for spring. There are a few key things you can do to give your home a fresh look and feel, both inside and out.
Declutter!
After a long winter of being cooped up indoors, the idea of getting rid of all unnecessary clutter can be appealing. But where do you start?
- Start with one room at a time. Trying to declutter your entire house all at once can feel overwhelming. So take it one room at a time and focus on decluttering one space before moving on to the next.
- Donate or sell items that you no longer need or use. One person’s trash is another person’s treasure. So if you have items that you don’t want or need, someone else might use them.
- Consider renting a storage unit to store seasonal items. If you have items that you only use during certain times of the year, like winter clothes or holiday decorations, consider renting a storage unit to keep them in. This will free up space in your home and make it feel less cluttered.
Deep Clean!
Most of us dread it, but there’s no denying it needs to be done. The good news is that deep cleaning your home doesn’t have to be a daunting task. With a little planning and organization, you can get the deep cleaning jobs done quickly and easily. Make a list of all the areas in your home that need to be deep cleaned. This could include the kitchen, bathroom, living room, and bedrooms. Once you have a list, go through each room and tackle one area at a time.
Start with dusting off all surfaces, like shelves, tables, and chairs. Then move on to cleaning the floors and carpets. Don’t forget to clean the windows! Once you’re finished with the inside of your home, it’s time to focus on the outside. Pressure washing your home’s exterior, sweeping the porch and deck, and cleaning the gutters will make a big difference.
One of the easiest ways to spruce up your home for spring is to bring in some fresh flowers. Bouquets of tulips or daffodils are perfect for this time of year. You can also get creative and plant your own flowers in pots or in the ground. Not only will they add a splash of color to your home, but they’ll also make it smell fresh and inviting.
Do Something Different!
If you’re looking for a way to freshen up your home for spring, one option is to hire an interior designer. They can help you choose a new color scheme for the outside or inside of your home, take your existing furniture arrangement and make the layout flow, and give you options that will give your home a clean and updated look. They can also suggest ways to declutter and organize your space so that it feels open and airy.
If you’re on a budget, it’s better to get a professional consultation, than to waste your money and end up not being happy with the results. A fresh coat of paint, some new throw pillows, or even some potted plants can make a big difference. Spring is the perfect time to make some changes in your home. Book an appointment with one of our designers to get you started on your path to a fresh and updated spring home!
