- Put out several bouquets and arrangements of
“silk” flowers in bright colors. Throw in some variegated greenery and you
have an instant brightener.
- Put away the woolen throws and bring out
your lighter ones for a quick pick-me-up. The same goes for your table

scent throughout your home.

senses and bring some spring into your
