Spring is just around the corner, bringing warmer days, blooming flowers, and the perfect opportunity to refresh your home after a long winter. From deep cleaning to rethinking your space for the new season, here’s how to prepare your home for spring while incorporating Homefire’s premium products to make the process seamless and satisfying.
Deep Clean and Declutter
Winter tends to leave behind dirt, clutter, and stale air. A thorough clean will set the stage for a vibrant and fresh spring season.
Tackle the Fireplace
If you’ve been relying on a cosy fire all winter, it’s time to clean out the ash and soot. If you’ve used Homefire’s smokeless fuel products, your fireplace shouldn't need too much of a clean. However, it’s important to get it checked by a professional. To find your nearest chimney sweep, visit www.nacs.org.uk.
Declutter
Go room by room, sorting items into keep, donate, and toss piles. An organised home feels lighter and more inviting.
Freshen the Air
Open the windows to let in fresh air. For a touch of comfort on cooler spring evenings, keep a stash of kiln dried logs on hand for a clean, fragrant fire.
Revitalise your outdoor spaces
Spring is the season to make the most of your outdoor space. Here’s how to get these areas ready for sunny days ahead.
Garden Prep
According to the Royal Horticultural Society, ash from burned wood can be applied directly to bare soil before digging it in. It serves as a natural source of potassium and trace elements while also neutralising acidic soils. If you don’t fancy using your kiln dried logs ash, try compost or soil improver from our garden range.
Grow Your Own
Spring is the ideal time to sow crops like chillies, tomatoes, and peppers indoors. Grow bags help retain moisture and shield young plants from the elements, making them a great addition to your garden setup.
Outdoor Firepits
For chilly nights, consider setting up an outdoor firepit. Use Homefire heat logs, which are easy to light and provide a clean, long-lasting burn. These are perfect for gatherings. Alternatively, you can try our coffee briquettes in your firepit or chimenea. These are perfect for keeping the spring chill at bay, whether you’re relaxing in the garden or staying cosy indoors.
Plan for Entertaining
Spring invites socialising, so get your home ready to welcome guests.
Stock Your Firewood
Impress friends with a glowing fireplace or outdoor firepit using kiln dried firewood, Twizlers, or Heat log fire logs to keep the flames going. Homefire Twizlers and heat logs are excellent choices for a clean, efficient burn.
Organise Outdoor Seating
Clean and arrange outdoor furniture for impromptu garden parties or barbecues. Add cosy blankets for those crisp spring evenings.
Practise Outdoor Cooking
