Today, we were supposed to wake up to a few inches of slushy madness. Thank God we didn't. Oh, and isn't it May 2nd??? Anyways, it's still cloudy and in the 40's. We could definitely use some Spring around here!
So today I wanted to write about how to bring Spring inside your home, especially if you don't see it outside! Below are a few quick tips for sprucing up your Spring decor and some don't cost a thing!
1. Rearrange your furniture. It's free although you may get sore from the heavy moving. Have a friend or older child help you out. You'd be surprised by how the look and feel of your home can change just by moving things around a bit. My son had be complaining about his room. When we finally moved everything, he felt so much better and now enjoys just being in his room.
2. Got a beautiful garden growing outside? Bring those flowers inside. Use old vases and spread them throughout your home. When Lilacs start to bloom, I.... um,
borrow my neighbors Lilacs that grow off the alley (or trees that grow at a park), you get the picture. The entire house smells like a sunny Spring day. Well, until my hubby starts sneezing, then I have to get rid of them. :(
3. If you have a few bucks to spare, refurbish your couch or bedroom throw pillows. Head to a fabric store and cut just enough to cover the pillows. No sewing machine? No problem! You can hand sew them. I even saw a way to tie the fabric on the pillow on Pinterest.
4. My last and favorite tip is purchasing Spring scented candles. Right now, I'm using a Blood Orange candle that smells wonderful. It uplifts your mood no matter what the weather looks like outside!
