The flowers are blooming, the days are getting warmer and the sun is shining, that means one thing… It’s spring and it is the perfect time for your clutter-clear out!! The winter blues are melting away so as you’re feeling energised and optimistic, put that energy into making your home a bright and refreshed space ready for those weekend BBQ get-togethers and holiday celebrations.
As the winter weather comes to a close, think about those jumpers and coats you didn’t wear once or maybe a collection of scarves that didn’t leave the closet all season, this can be your starting point for your clear out! What about those jeans that haven’t fit for years or the top you wouldn’t be caught dead wearing, it’s time to donate or rehome. Or you can head into the kitchen, check the dates on cans of food that have been pushed to the back of the pantry, discard all expired foods. Donate those appliances you haven’t touched in years or throw away those saucepans that are burnt beyond return. Even make a day of it, get the family involved and delegate spaces in the home so that by the end of the day you’ve got a clearer and refreshed space that you can be proud of as a family… And maybe reward yourselves with a special take away dinner.
There’s endless rewards to a spring clear out! You will have a lighter, fresher home that becomes easier to maintain and more functional. The benefits of a clean space correlates strongly on mental health as it reduces stress and promotes calmness. There’s also physical benefits of a safer home with less clutter and tripping hazards for the residents, also the hazards of expired foods or risks of mould or dust hidden behind clutter.
Spring cleaning isn’t just about appearances—it’s about creating a safe, healthy and uplifting environment for you and your loved ones.
So why not jump on board this September and embrace the fresh start? Declutter your home, soak up the sunshine, and enjoy the season ahead without the weight of clutter holding you back!
