      Check Off Lingering To-Dos Winter can be a tough time to get those little to-dos accomplished with the rush of the holidays. The lull between the hectic winter season and the active spring is the perfect time to check off those pesky to-do’s that need to be done. Check the roof, replace air vents, replace faucets, and tend to windows or sprinklers.

Open the Windows

Opening the windows and letting fresh air in is one of the most uplifting things you can do for your house this spring. This improves air quality inside and gives you a chance to clean up the windowsills and glass. If you suffer from allergies, do this early in the spring before the pollen levels get too high.

Brainstorm Curb Appeal

We’re lucky in Southern California to have lovely lawns year round, but there’s still something special about bright, fresh spring flowers and shrubs. Brainstorm your perfect spring garden, welcoming front door, and summer-loving deck now so that you have plenty of time to make your dreams a reality by spring.
