A fresh coat of paint 

Spring is right around the corner. With spring comes longer days, warm weather, and of course, that dreadful spring cleaning. As you start to reorganize, rejuvenate, and tidy up your home or business for the upcoming months, remember, nothing leaves a better impression than a fresh coat of paint.

Spring is a time of new beginnings, it’s the ideal time to paint exteriors also, because the temperature is fitting for the paint to properly settle and dry. So, don’t miss this time to get and enjoy the beautiful weather and get the best results on your home or business exterior.

Update your pillows 

Restyling the pillows on your sofa can totally transform a room.  Throw pillows are inexpensive and easy to change out. You can revamp the entire room by swapping out the darker colors you may have had for winter and add some light, vivid, detailed fabrics in place.

Bright napkins and place-mats 

Bright colors are certainly a sign of spring and warming temperatures. Embrace them by swapping out those dark table linens and replace them with more vibrant options. Mix and match these vibrant napkins and place mats on your dining or kitchen table to instantly enliven up the space.

De-clutter and organize 

Take a few minutes and just take all the accessories and knick knacks out of a room and try adding things back in slowly and purposely.  In winter we tend to have a good amount of decorations, photos and accessories out so why not put all those away for a bit and see how you feel with a more essential and simple space.

Open everything up 

Even though it is still a little cool, open up all those blinds and windows and feel that fresh air and sunshine sway inside. This little step lets out all the stuffy air from winter out and brings in the freshness of Spring.
