Spring is finally here! And if you’re anything like me, you love a good spring cleaning at this time of year.

There’s just something about putting away items that have been scattered around the house for too long, placing winter items into storage, and giving everything a deep clean. Doing this brings a sense of new life and energy into your space.

When we take care of the space we live in, everything in life feels so much better. We have more energy, we sleep better, we’re more creative, and we’re more focused.

I spent last Saturday morning spring cleaning my home, section by section. After I put on comfy clothes and some music, I got to work. I like to navigate spring cleaning by focusing on one area of my home at a time. I pick a space, concentrate all my energy on it, and then move onto the next. I also set a timer for 20-30 minutes per section so I don’t spend too much time in a single area.

Spring is one of my favorite times of year because it means that winter is behind us and summer is just around the corner. The transformation into this bright and sunny season makes it the perfect time to freshen up your home décor.

Here are 5 easy ways you can incorporate a touch of spring into your living space. Remember: you don’t have to spend a lot of money to redecorate your home. When it comes to decorating, less is more and even the smallest changes can add a fresh look to your space.

If you’ve been following along recently, you’ll know I’ve been decorating my flat. One part that was in serious need of a facelift was my bookshelves.

About 2 weeks ago, I was so frustrated with my bookshelves because I had no idea what I was doing. They just looked cluttered, unorganized, and uninspiring. Because the shelves are built in and are a very awkward shape, I found them challenging to work with.

At one point, I actually reached out to an interior designer for a consult because I didn’t know where to begin. Then I took a step back and paused. I took a new approach, not only thinking about what I wanted my space to look like, but how I wanted to feel in my space, too.
