Nancy Realtor | Mother | Wife Happy life #doitall Spring cleaning isn't just for when you SELL your home. You can clean up mental clutter and renew your mind and your soul! Here's how! Follow the three R's: REFURBISH, REPAINT, RECLYCLE. Being eco-friendly requires simple, smart and small steps. Any time I meet with a seller who is ready to list their home, I follow a short checklist that I find helpful for them to reference. First impressions are everything. Creating a welcoming entrance and curb appeal is super important. Spruce up your front door -- things like a fresh coat of paint, a new knocker or even a shiny knob will work wonders. Make sure your doorbell works too! No one likes to be ignored. If you are in a condo building, a new welcome mat or seasonal wreath can be inviting. Refresh your walls with natural colors. Repaint, refresh and rejuvenate the walls with colors that you love and enjoy. This will help you keep the home in tip top shape too! De-clutter for a quick makeover. Just like little squirrels, we hunker down and store our goods during the winter. But come summer, your home can get cluttered with knickknacks, heavy blankets and bulky furniture. Make use of your storage, donate or purge. Larger, clutter-free spaces create the impression of a bigger house. Let the sun shine in. Strategic placement of a mirror can add an enormous amount of natural light in your home. If possible, hang a large mirror in the living room directly where the sun beams in. In addition to bouncing light, it creates virtual space and an overall appeal to a small room. Clean out the garage for actual usable space and what it is intended for. Garage entry's can leave a lasting impression. Do not leave stinky shoes laying around, garden tools, or any family equipment... Maximize the space in whatever way best suits your needs. A home definitely needs to feel lived in, however you can still accomplish this by being more conscious about staying organized. Linen closets, refrigerators, and laundry rooms should not be ignored. These are three frequently used spaces that require a little attention and are easy and fun to add personality to! When selling your home keep in mind that the prospective buyer tends to envision themselves living there. Clean, neutral and neat places tend to be very attractive and usually leave an EVERLASTING IMPRESSION. Happy Organizing | Happy Spring
