tip of the month

Spring clean the interior of your house by freshening your bed linens—pillows, comforters and feather beds. If possible, hang them outside for a few hours to air them out. Make an appointment to get those carpets and rugs professionally cleaned.

As you’re going from room to room cleaning and freshening, take a fresh look at things you haven’t used in awhile or worn in the past few seasons. Most charitable organizations are delighted to accept household items and clothing that are gently used and in relatively good condition. Of course, if you’re feeling really energetic, you can put items aside for a yardsale.

This is also a great time to start surveying your outside space and prioritizing your outdoor projects. Do you need landscaping help? Is this the year the deck needs to be stripped and stained?
