The big spring cleaning, where to start ?

March 20th, change of season, March 21st, spring cleaning ! That means more light, longer days… and the desire to clean everything after winter, or at least give it a fresh update.

But where to start to avoid feeling overwhelmed ? Here’s a simple 3-step plan !

1. Start by making space

💡 You can’t clean properly if there’s clutter everywhere, it’s only logical !

Tidy up and sort : Get rid of clothes you no longer wear, fold up the thick winter blankets, and free up some space.

Change your bed linens : It’s time to swap the warm sheets for something lighter and more breathable (like washed linen, which is perfect for this).

Renew small elements : Changing a few cushions or a throw can be enough to give your decor a fresh look !

2. We wash what we forget the rest of the year.

💡 Yes, throws and curtains deserve a good wash.

Bedding :

• The sheets ? Pop them in the washing machine at 30°C or higher if recommended on the label. By the way, be sure to check our post-it to properly understand care labels !
• Pillows and duvets ? Air them out, and wash them of possible.

Decorative textiles :

• Cushions ? Yes, they can also go in the machine (unless otherwise stated).
• Curtains ? A good wash removes dust and the winter gloom.

Bonus :

• A light indoor fragrance, and voilà, everything smells fresh. Use it in moderation, check out this article.

3. Spring cleaning also means changing up your decor a bit

💡 Spring cleaning is also the perfect excuse to give your interior a new style.

Play with colors : Soft shades like beige, sage green, or terracotta can completely change the atmosphere with minimal effort.

Opt for lighter bed linens : Washed linen, bamboo satin … perfect materials for mid-season.

Add small details : A few carefully chosen cushions, and you’re good to go !

And there you go, ready to welcome spring the right way ?
