It is that time of year to enjoy Spring weather. Your home needs to be able to enjoy it as well. These are some things I like to do to transition my home from Winter to Spring. Any day the weather starts permitting, I will start raising the windows to let in fresh air and sunshine and push out some of those winter germs. When I've aired out the house really good, this is the perfect time to spring clean anything that I may have missed while regular cleaning or saved for this particular season. We love to give the house a bath and pressure wash, clean gutters, clean the flue, wash windows, etc. On the inside I will take down curtains and wash them and clean the windows and glass screen doors. I will try to vacuum out any bugs or gunk from the inside window seal. I will switch any candle or essential oil scents to spring flower scents. I replace table runner and place mats to spring ones. Bring in those early blooming daffodils and hyacinths and place in a jar for the table.
My husband grew up with a momma who washed the walls in the spring. Anyone else's mommas do this? She literally moved furniture and took things off the walls to do this. She used bleach and water. This killed all the germs. She was a stickler and my husband dreaded this every season. lol He had to help move furniture and take things off the walls.
Transitioning the home can help relieve the winter blues and stress. There is nothing like breathing in clean fresh air and letting the home breathe as well.
What are some ways you can share that you transition your home for Spring?
