\"Bring<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It’s been an extra long winter for us in Houston this year. With real snow, cold temps and dreary rain, we’re ready to bring spring. When we think of spring we think of fresh.\u00a0 Bring spring<\/a> into your home by freshening up and organizing.\u00a0 A checklist<\/a> also helps you keep every nook and cranny decluttered and organized.\u00a0Getting organized is the best way to get out the old and start fresh. \u00a0This short list of areas in your home will help you bring spring into your domain.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Entry<\/h3>\n

The entry is where everyone drops everything as they enter. \u00a0It’s probably currently a collection of gloves, scarves, and boots. \u00a0Match it all up and get it back to it’s long term storage solution, which is best the back of an auxiliary closet in your home.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Guest room<\/h3>\n

Has your guest room become a dumping ground for returns, extra holiday wrapping paper or things you have yet to decide on? \u00a0It’s time to spend time clearing this space out, freshing up the bed linens and getting this room back to a welcoming space for friends and relatives.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laundry room<\/h3>\n

One of the busiest and most neglected rooms in your home is your laundry room. \u00a0Have winter linens, single socks or just too many clothes gotten stuck in here? \u00a0Dig out with a few minutes of donating or distributing what’s stuck and reclaim efficiency here.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Master closet<\/h3>\n

Winter has about concluded. Now is the perfect time to let go of the winter clothes not worn. \u00a0 Since this was one of our more serious winters, if you did not wear a heavy sweater, pants or other garments, it’s the time to donate what you are avoiding wearing. It’s a quick scan of what you have not worn, dropping the items into a shopping bag, and then off to your car to bring them to donate.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Dont forget your home away from home, Your Car<\/h3>\n

Your car has collected not only trash but lots of random books, clothes and other stuff this winter. \u00a0It’s time to run by the car wash for an interior cleaning. \u00a0Taking care of our valuable asset will also make us feel like we took an extra step of care.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Just like you, I am ready to bring spring into my home, office, and car! \u00a0Take time this weekend to welcome spring, get organized and enjoy your refreshed spaces!<\/p>\n
