5 Ways to Refresh Your Home for the New Year

It’s 2023, and now that we’re in the new year, it’s the perfect time to refresh your home! Doing so will allow you to navigate your space and tackle your goals with ease. To help you get started, here are 5 simple ways to give your home a reboot.

1. Take Down the Tinsel

As hard as it may be to admit, the holiday season is over. Accordingly, it’s time to take down the tinsel and undeck the halls so that you may fully move into the new year.

2. Declutter

Once you’re done removing holiday decorations, go ahead and start decluttering crowded spaces, including closets, entryways, and yes those junk drawers you can never seem to close. Removing unnecessary items from your home will allow you to breathe a little easier and accomplish more in the new year; a clear space lends to a clear mind.

3. Deep Clean

Now, you’re ready to get cleaning. We’re talking from ceiling fans to baseboards. It’ll be hard work you’ll likely need to tackle over a couple of days, but it’ll be well worth it!

4. Get Organized

Your next step is to get organized! Choose a few high priority areas to begin with such as the entryway, kids’ playroom, home office, or another area that could use some TLC and really make the space functional. Getting organized will allow you to be much more efficient in your day to day!

5. Embrace Greenery

It’s time to add some color to the space, and we’re talking green! Incorporating plants in the home is one of the most simple ways to give your home a reboot. When choosing a plant, consider ones that are easy to care for and help to purify the air like a snake plant or aloe vera. If you have pets, be sure whatever plant you choose isn’t toxic to animals.

Happy New Year!

While simple, we hope you’ve found this list useful as you start your new year. Ready to kick it up a notch? Consider a fresh coat of paint, new wall art, or an area rug to help breathe even more life into your space. 

Oh, and Happy New Year!
