Spring is a wonderful time to implement simple life hacks that instantly refresh your home. Here
are a few tips that are sure to make your life easier, tidier, and cleaner!

1. Mudroom Hacks & Tips: Use basket storage to keep the mess contained!

Baskets are a lifesaver for stylishly containing clutter and keeping your space neat, tidy, and chic! Use chalkboard labels to assign each family member their own designated basket. The Better Homes & Gardens Hyacinth Twist Medium Rectangle Baskets are a great option for keeping gloves, hats, and sunglasses organized and easily accessible.

2. Tidy Pet Hacks: Beautiful containers are great for hiding pet essentials.

Pet supplies such as cat litter and treats stay fresher longer when stored in beautiful and functional containers. The Better Homes & Gardens Ceramic Hobnail Canister comes in three sizes and is a lovely option for a variety of storage needs—including pet treats! Use a label gun to remind family members of container contents.

For our own cute kitty, we are currently using Tidy Cats Free and Clean Unscented cat litter. The activated charcoal is the secret to this odor-absorbing stank solver! Tidy Cats Free and Clean Unscented is free from dyes and fragrance and helps keep litter box odors in check.

Bonus Tip: Even if cats aren’t currently part of your family, you still might want to invest in some Tidy Cats Free and Clean Unscented this spring! Keep sweaty and smelly sneakers in check by filling socks with cat litter, securing the open sock ends with rubber bands, and placing socks inside shoes. The activated charcoal helps absorb odors!

3. Ironing Board Hack: Keep a foldable ironing board tucked away but ready to go!
