Are you beginning to feel caged in by winter?
Cabin fever takes its toll every year about this time. So, what can you do about it? We’ve got some great home freshening up ideas
that cost next-to-nothing!
Pick a room (or two) that is bringing out the gloomies and brighten
it up!
Here’s how:
A room brightens up
the fastest when it is freshly green cleaned!
Dirty dust settles vertically and not just horizontally! Just take a look at your air intake vents and
you’ll see!
Clean light fixture
globes and ceiling fan blades.
Dirty fixtures inhibit light, adding unnecessary darkness.
Launder curtains.
Dust settles on them too!
If you have pets, they have soiled the curtains by brushing against them
to check out who’s outside! You know,
they have to guard the domainJ
Remember, more light coming in will lift your spirits!
Shooing away dust and grime helps too!
Dust furniture, bookshelves,
etc.
Brightly Green Wood Floor Cleaner works just as well for
dusting wood furniture! Spray on a clean
cloth and wipe surfaces.
Top it off with
vacuuming floors or sweeping/mopping.
Vacuum furniture too!
With the room freshly green cleaned, consider a little change-up to finish the freshening up!

How about rearranging the furniture?
It won’t cost you a dime and it's an instant room freshener!
How about getting a houseplant?
There are many that are air purifiers too! The green leaves will invoke a feeling of
fresh life too! Make sure it is safe for
pets, though. Just in case Fido or
Fluffy decide to nibble a little; or be sure to keep the plants out of
reach--even around infants/toddlers.
How about a new throw pillow?
Spring themes are circulating and maybe a spring inspired pillow
on the couch would be a nice touch!
How about adding a fresh fragrance to the room?
Maybe a scented candle will do the trick for you?
I love scented candles, especially in the fall and
winter. They just say “cozy.”
I hope these inexpensive room freshening tips help to cure your cabin fever.
Spring is right around corner you know--the Groundhog says so!
