Spring Cleaning – Bring it On! #giveaway
March – the first signs of Spring are starting to appear. More sun, higher temps, melting snow and the kids playing in the yard again – for hours! Yet, this also means that the dead brown grass is tracked into the house, and the windows open means more dust all over everything.
This time of year is synonymous with spring cleaning, it’s one of the fresh starts that we look forward to after such a long winter. Even if you don’t set out to do spring cleaning, once you start packing away the bulky winter coats and gear, you’ll want to sort and purge those closets!
Since I like to have a clean and fresh home, and enjoy this wonderful season, I’ve come up with a few tips and tricks along the way. The biggest is that everything has a home, and items should be placed back into their home after use. Cluttered home or no home? It’s time to go through said items and toss or donate what you don’t truly need. It’s easy to let our things pile up, and excess often means chaos! Think simply and efficiently!
As well, I’m a big fan of keeping the home fresh and great smelling. This is especially needed after a long stale winter indoors. this means that after I do a clean with some dusting, surrounding myself in a great scent makes me happy. Perhaps I don’t live on a beach {yet!}, but that doesn’t mean that my house can’t smell like the ocean or tropical flowers. One can pretend, and that alone puts me in an extra great mood!
