Start Freshening Your Home For the New Year

Start freshening your home for the new year — it’s easy! Make your home feel new with just a little effort every day. All it takes is a ten minutes a day to give your home a fresh outlook, and give you more to look forward to every day you’re there.

Spruce up in 10 minutes or less every day using these five tips:

1. Do a 10-minute clean-up: Just clean one area or item. Each week, choose a small task that you can handle in 10 minutes or less like vacuuming a rug or cleaning one window.

2. Try the 10-minute declutter: Reorganize your sock drawer, your kid’s dresser, a messy bookshelf, or that kitchen junk drawer. One place per week. Only keep what you absolutely need.

3. Prune a plant in 10 minutes or less: Choose just one plant in your home every week. Trim the dead leaves and fertilize, dust off the pot and leaves, and replenish dirt if needed.

4. The 10-minute refrigerator re-org: Tackle one shelf at a time. Take everything out of the shelf, clean it, and put everything back in a more organized fashion.

5. Take a 10-minute assessment: Move your artwork, framed photos, vases, throw pillows and other knickknacks around in your home to find the best next place for them to live this year. Sometimes freshening a room just means creating a new arrangement.

A fresh home often leads to fresh goals — including future plans to buy or sell. Wynne Moore Group is here to help you take the next step with confidence, whether you’re preparing your home for the market or dreaming about your next move. Let’s start planning your next chapter today.
