10 Easy Home Refreshes for Spring
As the weather gets warmer, it’s the best time to open those windows and doors and tackle projects that might otherwise make your home stuffy in the winter time. And when it comes to decor swaps: It’s time for an overhaul of color and textures.
Refresh Your Home Fragrances
Candles, incense, and diffusers are a quick and easy way to transition from one season to another. Swap out musky, winter fragrances for lighter floral scents. My current obsession is Cochine Saigon’s Tuberose & Wild Fig, a ‘citrus noir’ scent, perfect for transitioning from winter to Spring!And that brings us to our announcement of the winners of our Cochine Saigon lotion giveaway: Congratulations @KaizenFashion and @Hilary_Benedict! You’ll be receiving full-sized bottles of my favorite Cochine Saigon fragranced lotion, Tuberose & Wild Fig.
This citrus noir fragrance captures the romance of a sun-warmed garden as it unfolds its enchanting scents into the evening air. Rich notes of Wild Fig, Tuberose and night-flowering Jasmine combine with the freshness of Bergamot, crisp Vetiver and the warmth of Cedarwood to create this many layered fragrance. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 
This lotion is quickly absorbed and its scent lingers long after application. And if you know me, you know using natural ingredients is important! Cochine Saigon utilized 91% #naturalingredients and is #parabenfree and #siliconfree. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 
We'll announce the winners at the end of this week! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Refresh Your Walls

Go Crazy With that All-Purpose Spray
From countertops to cabinets and inside trash cans, now’s the time to do a deep dive and detail-clean your space. Be sure to use a safe, green all-purpose cleaning product, or DIY your own with a little lemon, warm water, and vinegar for things like grease stains on grout.
Refresh Hardware
An often overlooked but sure quick and inexpensive home refresher is to update your hardware. It’s a quick-fix that has the capacity to completely transform a space.
Refresh Your Linens
Give bathrooms and bedrooms a quick update with a fresh set of towels and a pack away the down comforter for a lighter, brighter quilt.
Refresh Your Rugs
Spring is the optimal time to swap out tired rugs. Rugs ground your space and given how much square footage they take up, they can define the entire vibe of the room. Now is the time for modern, brighter colors and patterns:
Refresh Your Dishware
Who doesn’t love a great tablescape? Update your dishware for Spring entertaining with lighter, colorful selections.
Refresh Your Bookshelves
Books are beautiful but they’re also horrible dust collectors! Spend some time taking them out one by one and dust the books and shelves themselves. (Your allergies will thank you!)
Refresh Your Bar Cart
Plan on entertaining a lot this Spring? Give your bar cart the update it needs — swap out warmer liquors for lighter sprites and heavier bar accessories for brighter ones.
Refresh Your Tabletops Accessories
Catch-alls, trays, and a fresh vase full of spring flowers or succulents have the ability to make your space feel brand new in a cinch!
