Good Day to all as we weather out the end of winter and head into a cheerful spring. It is at this time that we long for the sunshine and greenery that comes with the Spring Season. It is time to open the windows and air out our abodes and welcome the birds singing.
Now is when we want to shake off the winter and spruce up our lives for the warmer weather. We long to redecorate for the new season. It is also time for Spring Cleaning.
This is a good time to get organized and clean out the winter blues. Start with a plan.
- Write down what needs to be done (cleaning, repair, painting, etc)
- Plan your attack. What should be tackled first?
- Time to get going!
Start with a good cleaning out.
- Toss it all out. I know this is difficult. We are all pack rats. You know that pile of papers you have been meaning to go through, but never do, throw it out. If you have not looked at them yet you never will and therefore will not miss anything.
- Scrub the winter away. Clean all of the floors and surfaces. Light some spring scented candles. You are now on your way. Spring is in the air.
- Patch walls and calk bathtubs. Time to do those pesky repairs you have been putting off.
It will be nice to see through the mess to your tables and floors. Start in one room and work your way through each room.
Now for some fun.
- Freshen your look with some new color. Paint a room with a new color. Or you can just paint one wall for accent.
change the spring color theme with new paint - Add a new area rug and some pillows.
new accessories and paint can change the decor for the spring season - You can swap decor form different rooms.
- Find items such as tables and chests at garage sales and make them your own by painting them a fun color. Use high gloss enamel on furniture for the best looks.

- What is better to get a taste of spring with than with some flowers? Treat yourself with a spring bouquet in a pretty vase. Flowers will bring the scent of what is to come and remind you that winter will soon be a memory.
Now enjoy what you have accomplished. Sit back, smell the spring in the air, and relax. Life is just a fleeting moment. Cherish every minute and never be afraid to dance!
