Springtime Rituals - Make Everyday Special
Here at House of Cassidy, we love to turn everyday moments into beautiful experiences you can look forward to, and make the most of. Our candles are carefully crafted here in our kitchen, designed to elevate those moments in mind that we often rush through to get to the next thing. Scented candles create a relaxing experience that increases wellbeing, and brings you into the present moment in a way that calms your mind, and soothes the senses.
now that it’s spring, we’re pressing the reset button on those things we have to do, like getting ready, and cleaning, and finding those little touches that add a little luxury. Here are some ideas to get you started…
Getting Ready - ft Silk Jasmine Bliss
It’s something we do before we leave for work or school - before going on a night out, and it’s personal. Your shower routine, your skincare regime, choosing your accessories, and putting together your best outfit. We often do it last minute if we’re running late, and it can be a bit of a rush - but imagine if you could make getting ready your favourite part of the day? A moment of me-time that allows you to gather your thoughts and prepare in a way that leaves you refreshed and revived?
We’ve got a few ideas to help you turn your bedroom or bathroom into a peaceful retreat…
Give yourself plenty of time. Do you normally shower and throw on your make-up in 10 minutes? Why not give yourself 30 minutes, and slow down so you can leave the house without rushing?
Put on your favourite playlist, or listen to a podcast. Pick something that inspires you or interests you, so you can engage your mind during this time.
Light a scented candle. A refreshing scent and the soothing glow of a candle can make you feel as though you’ve stepped into a luxury spa. We recommend the delicate floral scent of Silk Jasmine Bliss to bring a feeling of tranquility that re-centres your mind.
Weekend Cleaning - ft Royal Bliss
After a long working week, many of us choose Saturday to catch up with life admin such as grocery shopping, and household chores. These are the essential but sometimes boring tasks that keep our homes and our lives in order. We’ve found ways to switch up our weekend cleaning experience, to make it enjoyable and fun - especially that satisfying moment when everything is done, and we can relax and admire our pristine home with a cup of tea…
Don’t let your weekend cleaning tasks be something you dread - here are a few things you can do to make it fun…
Turn your chores into a dance party! Blast your favourite party tunes and turn up the energy! Music has a way of boosting motivation, and singing along can make the time go by quicker.
Open the windows and let in the breeze - Houses can get stuffy throughout the week. There’s nothing more refreshing than opening all the windows while you clean, and letting the fresh air permeate each room. There’s something extra special about springtime air…
Add a reed diffuser as the final flourish. Now that everything is in its place, the dust has been washed away, and your home looks pristine, place a reed diffuser on your mantelpiece or coffee table and let its subtle scent float through the room, and add a touch of luxury to the space. We recommend Royal Bliss for its zingy citrus blended with warm, delicate spice notes, that adds both freshness and a cosy feel.
