Here's our family's country house that we cleaned top to bottom a few weeks back to get it ready for summer renters

This month we're all about helping you to spring clean. We'll be looking for tips, tricks, sources, products and inspiration which have to do with cleaning, organizing, decluttering and otherwise refreshing the home in advance of the summer (when we know we're not going to pay any attention to this again until next fall :-))...

 
 

So stay tuned and feel free to help us by emailing us with any tips or questions of your own: contact form here.
