The best part is, I can make a new one every month for next to nothing with all the great napkins I always see on clearance.

Reactivate it to view this content.. Make it smell like summer.I feel like we always remember the power of scent during the fall and the holidays, but we often forget about it for the other seasons.

Scent has such a great way of creating an atmosphere in our homes and making us feel like we’re somewhere completely different almost instantly.Heat and humidity can bring some really interesting smells out of the walls and floors of our homes, especially in a 120 year old house like ours, so I like to light a candle and let myself feel like I’m on a tropical vacation somewhere rather than cleaning up pet fur off the floors for the 17th time that day.Display the fruits of your labor.

If you have a garden, fruit trees, or a little berry patch, putting your harvest out on display can really give your home that summery feeling too.It just looks like you could whip up something delicious and fresh at any moment and make you feel like you’re really living in the seasonal moment.

Even if you don’t grow your own, keeping a few fruits and vegetables out as edible decor means that you probably.

actually enjoy them more often, just like you’re supposed to in the summer.. More like this.I just like to gently scrub over the entire sink in a circular motion.

This really diminishes the look of any scratches and really pulls out any stains that may have settled into the grain of the sink.It really brightens the whole thing up!.

Next I take a damp rag and wipe down the whole sink, followed by a dry rag.At this point the sink always looks much better, but even if you think it’s much shinier than before, I guarantee that there’s still shining to be done!.
