Warmer weather and longer days are upon us. Springtime is the perfect season to freshen up your home. Below is a list of tips from our design experts that keep both organization and design aesthetics in mind to help you get started with your spring cleaning.
Declutter
The first way to freshen up your home without spending any money is to clear unnecessary clutter. Start anew by getting rid of things that you no longer use and are just taking up space in your home. Store anything that is not serving a purpose and does not add visual interest to the room. By placing these items out of sight, it gives your room an instant makeover and creates a clean and fresh appearance.
Natural Lighting
Take time to clean your windows and open up or pull back your window treatments. Sunshine provides instant warmth to your rooms. Take advantage of longer days to naturally light your home.
Bring the Outdoors Indoors
Your home has been closed up for months in order to keep out that winter chill. Open your windows to circulate the air through your home and allow fresh air to come in. Add fresh flowers to your home for a pop of color while adding ambiance and a scent of natural florals.
Accessorize
Tuck away any winter accessories that may still be lingering inside your home. Thick textured throws and pillows should be stored away until next winter. Incorporate lightweight textiles such as chiffon, cotton, and linen in your bedroom. Add floral prints and pastel-hued throw pillows to your bed for a touch of spring.
