Get your home summer ready!

Now is a great time of year for decluttering and organising your home. The longer hours of daylight are great motivators to clean and tidy.

Traditionally, spring cleaning was done to clear away all the soot and dust that had accumulated over winter inside a home with an open fireplace. It’s a tradition that’s lasted for centuries, but nowadays it’s more about freeing up space in our homes and making the most of the space available over the long days of summer. Once everything’s organised, you can give everything a good clean and have a sparkling house you can enjoy all summer long!

This is also where storage comes in handy throughout the summertime! You could store your winter clothes in there, along with anything else you’ve got stashed in your wardrobes or spare rooms - Christmas decorations, winter sports equipment, things like that.

Keeping that clutter out of your home altogether, rather than knowing it’s crammed into every available nook and cranny, will make your house feel so much tidier and fresher. You’ll be able to open cupboards without fear of things falling on you; you’ll have room to store things you use regularly and be able to take them out easily!

Decluttering isn’t the most fun you can have, but it will feel great when it’s done - enjoy your lovely new home!
