Welcome To custom design gift for Thanksg！

It’s that time of the year which calls for you to get into action. Yes， it’s time for our Indian equivalent of the annual “Spring Cleaning”. This festive season we have some easy tips that will make you turn your home into a spotless haven.

Get started with the real spirit of Diwali and organize your home.

De-Clutter：

Get rid of excess baggage. Be objective in making a choice between objects that you need vis-à-vis those which hold sentimental value， but have no further use. Especially， clothes that have been sitting in your wardrobe for the longest time and don’t fit you anymore. ？Make rational choice while cleaning your kitchen cabinets by getting rid of old broken jarsaccent pillow case baby canvas sofa， expired ingredients and stock food which you think won’t be put to use.

Tackle every part of your house separately and create some more open space. At the end of the exercise you will feel much lighter.

The best way to de-clutter is to donate unwanted stuff to an orphanage or old age home. Bringing joy to the needy is the best way to celebrate the festive spirit.

Furnishing Fixation

Revive your old drapes by taking them down and giving them a good wash in the washing machine. You can immediately dry them and put them back by running them through an air-fluff cycle in the dryer.

You will notice a change by letting in some light into your rooms.

Dust Buster

Raid every corner of the house by dusting it spic and span. Take everything off from your shelves， table-tops and dressers， basically every piece of furniture. Why neglect your ceiling fans， top of kitchen cabinets and doorways.

Get on the mission and fight the dust mites.

Finicky Flooring

Why leave out your flooring. Deep cleaning all your flooring will add that extra sheen to your home. In fact these days you can seek professional help by getting your flooring waxed and carpets cleaned by them.

Upping the Upholstery

Refresh your upholstery by cleaning your upholstered furniture， which include every tiny piece of furniture. Start by vacuum cleaning every piece， as well as underneath of cushions. Check for care labels for stains and clean， accordingly.

At the end of the mission， you will see a noticeable change on how your home looks.

Today I’m happy to have Amanda of Jedi Craft Girl sharing a tutorial teaching you how to sew a pillow as a part of our Summer Sewing Series. ? They are not any ordinary pillows, they are these adorable “From Porto with Love” Pillows. ?Keep reading to get all of the juicy details below.

We got home this week from a 3 week-long road trip (I think I may have mentioned that already, I feel like I’m starting to sound like a broken record *wink*). Now that we are home, summer has finally settled in at our house. ?Along with it has come lazy days, hot humid air, peanut butter sandwiches for lunch, and an overall feeling of laziness. If it would ever stop raining that feeling would be amplified by the smell of sunscreen and chlorine. ?Our recent rainy weather has given us an “extra” excuse to lay around the house all day (like we need more than one excuse? to do that*wink*)… ?I’m not saying that like it’s a bad thing. A little down time every once in a while is good for the soul.
