Allow your sheets to get some sunlight
Take a chance during a sunny day and allow your sheets to get some sunlight. You will notice that they smell cleaner and happier.
Buy fragrant flowers
Nothing compares to the smell of fresh flowers. Buy fragrant flowers like lilies and roses for an instant dose of spring.
Sprinkle oils on your light bulbs
Your lightbulbs will heat and spread the aroma of lavender, rosemary or any other aroma you choose.
Bring some cooking herbs into your kitchen
Fresh herbs will make you feel that spring is around the corner every time you cut one.
Get candles with tropical aromas
Candles and colorful flowers will set the spring mood around your home. Choose products with tropical smells like mango and the sea.
Add fragance to your toilets
I have a friend who hangs rosemary from her shower, so the steam releases the aroma every time she takes one. I love to keep flowers in the bathroom for the same reason. It will make you feel refreshed, warmer and happier, even if you are rushing.
Fill your home with colors
Stimulate your visual sense by filling your home with bright colors. Accessorize your couch, side tables, dining table–and any place you can think of with colors.
Cook bbq food
The smell of food on the grill is one of the first signs of spring. You might need to wear a coat to replicate this, but it's well worth it.
Delicious waters
The process of making aguas frescas brings smells and colors of spring. To make things better, they are excellent for detoxifying, so it's a win-win.
Get an app with birdsounds
Hearing is as powerful as smelling and seeing. Listen to the sounds of nature awaking and everything around you will feel and smell like Spring.
