    22 Ways To Welcome Spring Back With Open Arms

    🎶 Oh Mister Sun, Sun, Mister Golden Sun, please shine down on meeee 🎶

    1. Buy yourself some fresh flowers to spruce up your place. It's been a while since there was a little brightness in your apartment and you 100% deserve it after the six month snow slog.

    2. Take advantage of the warm weather and go on an outdoor date with a convenient and cute picnic pack. Netflix and chill has been cool, but there's nothing like spending time in the great outdoors with just your sweetie and a great sandwich.

    3. Use an infusion pitcher to steep some refreshing flavored waters. Just pop the produce of your choice in the center chamber, sit back, relax, and await a delectable beverage.

    4. Don a devastatingly cute short-sleeved cardigan to announce the exciting news to the world: It's watermelon szn.

    5. Tidy up your junk drawers with some interlocking bins. You deserve a fresh start this season and so do your storage spaces!

    6. Set up a new grill and look forward to cooking outside all summer long. This 18-inch charcoal grill is perfect for whipping up some burgers, steaks, or veggies for a small group, and the charcoal will add a delicious smokey flavor you just can't get with gas.

    7. Switch out your heavy blankets for a lighter one. Now that it's not 20 degrees below, you'll be sweating it out in your faux fur. Try snuggling up with this cheery cotton throw for your nightly reading.

    8. Get in the habit of applying sunscreen under your makeup everyday. Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen is a makeup primer with SPF 40 whose red algae-, frankincense-, and meadowfoam seed-packed formula will protect your skin from harmful UV rays without ruining your ~lewk~.

    9. Pop on a spring dress and take over the world. Nothing says "Be GONE, horrid winds of winter" quite like a floral maxi.

    10. Make your weekend day drinking a little more grown up with a Winc subscription. Every month, they send you wines based on your palette preferences, and their amazing rosé and white wine selections are perfect for porch time.

    11. Finally cash in on all the times you said "This would look great with a denim jacket," while shopping this year and actually get one. Alas, the time is finally here to actually get to wear one of these babies 24/7 (yes, I sleep in my denim jacket, whatever).

    12. String up a hammock and get busy relaxing. ENO Double Nest hammocks fold tight for easy transport, are super easy to hang, and can be placed anywhere with two sturdy supports. Perfect for all of your upcoming porch, backyard, and park naps.

    13. Get outside and play some dang games! Cornhole is always a crowd pleaser, and this collapsable version will be easy to transport to all the BBQs you'll be hitting.

    14. Or REALLY get your game on with some giant Jenga. Honestly, this is so extra and amazing, how could you not want to play this every day until October?

    15. Quick-clean your bathroom with some biodegradable all-purpose wipes. These are a lazy spring cleaner's dream and will have your sink, toilet, and shower sparkling in no time at all.

    16. Brighten up your dishware with some adorable pastel bowls. All the delicious fruit that's coming into season will taste even better when eaten out of a springy bowl, that's just a fact.

    17. Hold a funeral for your worn out snow boots and then throw on some adorable sandals. Your little piggies will be so happy to see some sunshine, and in these Steve Madden stunners no less.

    18. Keep your winter clothes safe *and* out of the way with some trusty storage bins. Now is the time to get negativity — aka big 'ol sweaters and parkas — out. of. your. life.

    19. Let your legs be FREE in a pair of killer shorts. Snag some denim ones for a perfect everyday look or some floral cuties for when you want to be the verified Mayor of Spring.

    20. Leave your mugs behind and make the glorious switch back to iced coffee (if you even stopped). This cold brew maker makes it SO easy to make an overnight batch at home, saving you time and money by skipping the coffee shop in the morning.

    21. Treat your apartment like the queen she is and get a vacuum that *actually* works like this Hoover. I finally got one last week and, no lie, my place became sentient, cried tears of joy, and thanked me for finally cleaning up all mud and salt I tracked in this winter.

    22. Keep your lips poppin' and chap-free while adjusting to the warmer weather with Clinique Chubby Sticks. The lip balm gives you a major dose of hydration throughout the day *with* amazing color payoff.
