A weekend guide to welcoming spring into your home

Are you ready to shake off the bleakness of winter and embrace the season of new beginnings? Here’s a guide to help you welcome spring into your home in just two days.

Saturday
In the morning, focus on cleaning your home from top to bottom. Dust and vacuum each room, and put away thick blankets and other winter decors. Now’s also a good opportunity to declutter your home, setting aside items to throw out, recycle or donate.

In the afternoon, get all of your shopping done. Head to a farmer’s market or garden shop to pick up an assortment of plants and flowers. Additionally, stop by a home decor store to find spring accessories that’ll help brighten up your living space.

Sunday
In the morning, transplant your new flowers and greenery into pots you picked out the day before. Take the time to create a variety of arrangements. While you’re at it, trim yellow leaves and dead stems from the plants already in your home.

In the afternoon, set about finding spots for your new decorative items. Play around with tones, textures, and shapes to best showcase each piece. Consider rearranging some of your furniture or installing lighter curtains to make space feel airier.

After the weekend’s over, you can sit back and enjoy the beauty of spring in your own home.
