There is still time to make your home or office smell like spring!

Even though the Nashville sun makes it feel like summer, spring is still here for a few more weeks. This also means you still have time for Spring Cleaning at home and in your office. Both settings can become musky over time due to lots of factors. If you want to make your home smell like spring, there are a few important tips to follow.

Clean the Carpets

Deep clean the carpets to remove grime and dirt that has accumulated in areas of high traffic. You can also spot clean certain parts of the carpet where wine stains or food have spilled. Shake out any rugs that are in the home outside to remove dust and dirt.

Add Extra Plants

Placing plants in different areas of the home will improve air quality and help eliminate scents and odors. Some of the top plants to use include palms, ferns, and peace lilies.

Make Your Own Citrus Spray

Allow your home to smell like fresh fruit with a DIY citrus spray that you can spritz in different rooms throughout the day. The spray will deodorize and disinfect the home to remove smells in the kitchen or dusty scents in rooms that aren't used as frequently. Use four cups of vodka and peels from two oranges with a few drops of orange essential oils in a spray bottle. Consider adding a few sprigs of rosemary or mint.

Use a Diffuser

Diffusers break down essential oils and release them into the air to create a beautiful natural scent. It's also clean and easy to use instead of dealing with melted wax or burns.

Use a Fresh Bouquet of Flowers

Make it a point to put a fresh bouquet of flowers in an entryway. This will brighten up any setting and allow it to smell like spring. The strongest scents will come from flowers that include roses, gardenias, wisteria, jasmine, and lilacs.
