There is nothing better than the welcoming of a new season!

Whether it’s warm to chilly, windy to balmy, or wintry to budding, a change in scenery is always refreshing. At Hive Helper, we love to integrate the seasonal shifts into our home cleaning patterns. It’s the perfect time to revisit tired corners and declutter any high-traffic areas of the home. We created this simple seasonal cleaning checklist to help guide you through your home as well. Simply download, print, and let the cleaning party begin! Here are a few tips to keep in mind as you welcome each new season:

Look at the textiles you are using

You may not want a basket of blankets in the living room all summer, just as you may want to swap your cotton sheets with flannel during the winter months. Consider what you are gravitating toward in this season and adjust your surroundings.

Give your bedroom special attention

Have you noticed that as life gets busy, the primary bedroom takes the biggest hit? This is where we do some of our most important work – resting, connecting, meditating… the mood of the room should reflect its importance. If there are decorations or colors that no longer relax or inspire you, switch them out!

Give the seasonal blooms a spotlight

Each season is so short, lean into what natural elements it offers! Items as simple as branches and yard cuttings, or as beautiful as fresh blooms and fruits from the farmer’s market – place them in a bowl or vase to be enjoyed for the season.

We hope you enjoyed this reminder to welcome each season within your home. Don’t forget to download the free seasonal cleaning guide, and schedule a cleaning if you need some extra help!
