Brighten Your Home for Spring by Raine English

Here are five easy ways to brighten up your home and welcome in spring.

1. Fill vases with daffodils and tulips.


2. Freshen up your rooms. Change bedding, pillows, towels, and table linens for ones with lighter fabrics and colors.

3. Reorganize bookshelves. Sort books by size and subject, removing any ripped dust jackets. Arrange books vertically and horizontally, and then place knickknacks on some of the shelves to add visual interest.

4. Organize your closet. Get rid of clothes and accessories that you don’t wear, then categorize the rest by tops, pants, jeans, skirts, and dresses, then arrange by color. Your closet will look neat, and you’ll find things a lot easier.

5. Start an herb garden on your kitchen windowsill.


What are some of the ways you brighten up your home for spring?
