Who says spring says cleaning! A simple way to refresh the space is to clear and clean the windows of the house. For example, if your windows are decorated with opaque curtains, consider changing them to light sheer. This will make all the difference, as natural light will enter the room more easily. Curtains, or not, a good cleaning of the windows is also in order. We’ll tell you about homemade cleaners a little further!

Spring entrance hall cleaning

The entrance hall is the first reflection of your home and it is often the most cluttered place too! With the arrival of good weather, remember to put away winter clothes and accessories to make room for water boots, sun hats and other lighter accessories. Take the opportunity to clean up and store your belongings in baskets or other storage.

Spring tip : Add wicker baskets, a rug in spring colors and hang your most beautiful beach bag in plain sight.

Several other projects are possible with a few scraps of fabric, small reusable snack bags or even pretty little dish sponges. Pinterest is full of tutorials of the genre, get inspired!
