Channel your inner Marie Kondo by taking the time to select the images that spark joy for you. Bring these memories back to life by creating a unique decor piece, such as a canvas print, to be displayed somewhere in your home as a sentimental reminder to be enjoyed year-round.

Boost Productivity and Spirit

Use the warm weather that spring provides to your advantage! It’s scientifically proven that the sun helps our bodies to produce vitamin D and serotonin (the chemical that contributes to happiness and well-being). Declutter both your home and mind this spring by taking the time to organize and clear your space from distractions. You’ll be much more productive working in a clean environment. Add a personal touch to your newly-organized workspace with one of Mixbook’s acrylic blocks, the perfect pop of color to accent your aligned area.

Opt Outside

A good spring cleaning can help you remove allergens from your home, giving you the upper hand in combating sneezes and sniffles throughout the season. After you’ve finished your spring cleaning checklist you’ll be happy and healthy, earning yourself a much deserved break! Now you can spend your free time doing what you actually enjoy, keeping your stress levels low and your spirits high. Make the most of the sunny weather by exploring your own city or traveling somewhere new. The photos you take will create the perfect content for a photo book keepsake that archives your memories for years to come.
