Spring has sprung! Like many of you, I have been caught up with spring cleaning and tending to the garden over the last few weeks. But spring shouldn’t just be about cleaning, yard work, and planning summer activities for the kids. This season, P&G wants you to remember to take a “spring break” from your busy schedule and treat your self to some springtime pampering. I have some great ideas and tips to share with you from the P&G Have You Tried This Yet? program.
Me, Myself and I: Tips to Help You Blossom this Season
Now that your winter hats are in storage and the weather is warming up, head to your local hair salon for a shorter ‘do. Your new look will give you a boost of confidence, while helping you turn over a new spring leaf.
Move your indoor workout outside! Go for a morning walk or head to your local park and strike some yoga poses to soak in the peace of the great outdoors.
With the weather heating up, you can finally look forward to showing off your legs. Use the Gillette® Venus & Olay™ razor to boost your shave and help lock in skin’s moisture* so you can wear that spring sundress with pride!
Sip on your morning “cup of jo” on your porch or patio. Use this time to clear your mind and soak in some springtime rays.
How to Celebrate and Prepare Your Family for the Spring Season.
Welcome spring with your family with a unique twist on potted plants—potted desserts!
Step 1: Take a small plastic pot.
Step 2: Fill it with ice cream, gummy worms and crumbled cookies.
Step 3: Enjoy!
Is your child coming home from college for spring break? Create and hang a welcome sign in their bedroom. It will make them feel right at home and put a smile on their face.
With the kids how for vacation, make sure to stock your bathroom with Charmin Ultra Strong®. It cleans so well you’re kids can use less!
Take the kids to the park for a picnic or to play catch. You can make lasting memories while getting them to be active and learn to appreciate spending time outdoors.
Spring clean your family’s laundry by throwing in a Tide Vivid White + Bright™ Boost while doing the wash. It will whiten your whites and brighten your brights, so you can look your best in your springtime wardrobe.
Spring Fever: Tips to Welcome Spring into Your Home
Prepare for the upcoming season by putting away your wool blankets, heavy comforters and humidifier. Add some fresh colorful flowers to your nightstand in a simple vase to bring the outdoors in.
Invite springtime freshness into your home by using Downy Infusions™ Honey Flower fabric softener and Downy Shimmer Unstopables when washing your towels and linens. Together, these innovative products invigorate your fabrics with layered scents that last throughout day.
Take your favorite elements of spring and incorporate them into your dining room table décor. Use a birdcage, potted flowers and seasonal fruit and vegetables to bring your “tablescape” to life.
Want to bring the springtime sunshine into your home? Hang a large mirror on the wall that faces your window. When the sun shines in, it will reflect off the mirror and add light to your space.
