Paint choices are personal, but because they’re something we live with every day, getting a friend’s opinion may help you make the right decision.

You’re not alone if spending over a year mostly at home has made you want to make some serious changes to your space. But that’s a good thing. This time at home has also forced us to take inventory of what’s working and what’s not, and now’s the time to decide what types of permanent changes can make your home a happier, healthier space for the long run.

Now that it’s officially spring, we hope you’re planning on giving your home a well-deserved deep clean—especially considering that it’s been working overtime for the past year. Your space will thank you, and you’ll surely thank yourself. But you’ll need the right tools to get the job done like a pro.
