Spring is a fresh new season, with exciting colors and a fresh breeze after a drab winter. While the weather may be dreary, this is the best time to focus on the interior of your Lake home and get it ready for the summer. One aspect of living a luxurious lifestyle is clearing out clutter, removing items that don't impact your space in a positive way and making a clean break from the winter. Here at John Elliott Interiors, we know how spring cleaning can impact your space for the better, so we have a few quick tips to help you clear the clutter and bring spring into your space!

Your Bedroom

1. Clear the Clothes
Start with your closets, and remove the clothing that you don't need. It's so easy to close the doors and leave the clutter for another day. There's no day like the present, and if you're rained in - you have just the excuse that you need. If it doesn't fit, or you don't wear it - donate or sell it.  Clear out the winter clothing and put it in a vacuum seal bag or a plastic container to store for the next season.

2. Brighten the Bedding
Make an impact on your bedding by either updating the colors and materials for warm weather or airing out your comforter and pillows from the winter. Fresh air can do a wonder of good for your items that can't be washed.

Your Kitchen

1. Clean Your Cupboards
While you may have a routine for cleaning your kitchen, there are always a few items that don't make the cut. Cleaning off the surface of your cupboards can be one of those tasks. From dust to food grime, your cabinets can use a deep cleaning every so often to keep them looking fresh and new.

2. Deep Clean Your Floors
If you have ceramic tile floors, the grout will need to be cleaned every so often to keep it looks bright and clean. Other flooring materials will need certain care depending on what they are. If you have wood floors, they may need a deep clean and re-sealed.

Your Living Space

1. Dust The Surfaces
After a long winter, it can be easy for dust to pile up on your shelves, decor, and plants. Clear off your surfaces, dust them off, and dust off the items that were on them. Take some time to clean off lampshades, faux plants, and any other materials that are delicate but need to have a fresh cleaning.
