Spring is in the air, finally! That means that the weather’s getting warmer, the days are stretching out and all the flowers are in bloom. It’s still a very different spring for many of us this year, while we stay at home to help stop the spread of coronavirus. So what can you do with your time at home? A little spring cleaning, obviously!
Here are some top tips for getting ready for spring while you’re stuck at home.
Spring Cleaning: Outdoors
While vacations and trips to the beach are a long way off, you can still make the most of the spring weather at home. You can find plenty of amazing chic patio ideas to help you get started. While many online stores are still delivering, you could order the bits you need, or try repurposing some of the bits you already have. With your outdoor space transformed, you’ll be able to get your vitamin D hit and enjoy relaxing in the comfort of your own home.
Spring Cleaning, For Real
How many times have you said you’re going to spring clean your home but never actually get around to it? Well, now is your chance to do it for real! Use a spring cleaning checklist to help you plan things out room by room – it will make a big difference, and you will be able to enjoy your home so much more after a deep clean. Why not also take the time to declutter? It’s a great time to organize your home and finally put everything in its place.
Check Your Cooling
Spring brings with it an end to the need for heating, and it can come as a surprise when you need to start cooling your home instead. Check to make sure that your AC is working correctly. It could also be a good time to invest in some fans for your home – ideal for cooling and adding some decorative features at the same time!
Upgrade Your Decor for Spring
Is your home decor looking a bit tired? Now is a great time to breathe new life into it and give it a lighter, brighter feel for spring. There are plenty of budget-friendly ways to upgrade your living room, including adding some new decor pieces. Rattan is having a resurgence this year and could be a good way to add some new affordable pieces to your home.
With a lot of time potentially on your hands over the coming weeks, it’s a great time to think about doing up your home and making some changes you’ve been putting off for a while. Spring is here and there is plenty to enjoy, even if you are at home! Get your home in order and start making the most of it.
