By the time winter finally loosens its grip, our houses tend to feel a little tired. The air is stale, the light feels dimmer than it should be, and no candle—no matter how pine-scented—can convince you it’s actually spring.
The good news is that freshening your home after winter doesn’t require a shopping spree or a cart full of “spring clean” products. The cheapest way to reset a house after months of closed windows, heavy fabrics, and reheated air is simpler than you think—and it starts with air, light, and a little rearranging.
